Q:
I tried installing Zonealarm on Windows 7 and it did not work. It got me thinking, is it even needed anymore? Is the Windows 7 firewall good enough, along with a good anti-virus program?
A:
I think you can try ZoneAlarm® Antivirus 9.0 Beta. It includes both Antivirus and the award-winning Firewall. It prevents and disables most recent and sophisticated viruses and PC attacks. ZoneAlarm Antivirus 9.0 Beta is the second public beta compatible with Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit). Also works on XP and Vista.
