Customer Review(s)
Customer Rating: Summary: Spyware. Unusably buggy. Comment: The first time you start ZoneAlarm after you install it, it phones home by opening up a web page with all sorts of tracking and profiling information about you and your computer. It sends the install key, then it sends stats about what you have installed, and of course your computer IP. It doesn't ask whether it may do this and it bypasses all its locks in order to do it. Neat trick for a program someone has just bought to lock down spyware isn't it?
After that it proceeds to make Vista completely unstable. Explorer crashes when I enter "v" on the start menu. ZA and Adobe Version Cue don't work well together apparently. There is a persistent but lasting back two versions where it thinks every program is trying to access the dns port of random servers. e.g. notepad.exe will apparently want to access port 53 of cnn.com if that's what you accessed last.
The expert firewall rules don't work. After adding a rule to allow all dns requests, you still get the popups every time.
another new bug with 2009: if you want to have ZA ask every time you start a program (e.g. firefox.exe) previously it would ask once and then never again till you restart it. Now ZA will pop up a request popup every few minutes.
