Hello,


My friend told me not to install Zone Alarm on my PC because I will get a lot of error messages and to install Avast because it is better, but another friend told me to install Zone Alarm as he thinks it is the best antivirus ever. I dont know what to choose now. Do you think Avast or Zone Alarm is better for me? I am using a new laptop that's why I want to know which one will protect it better.

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.0.4

Hey there,

according to me i would recommend that you use zonealarm. in fact zonealarm isnt with many error message but it just asks you for permission being accessing the internet whether its you or a program that wants connection to the internet. sometimes while installing programs also you may get this kind of error but never mind as it just asks you permision to write in the windows registry. so just go for zonealarm buddy.

see you
