I have got the ZAPro ver 4.5.594.000, the paid for version and it is
supposed to tell me when updates are available. Even when I clicked

on
the
'Check for Updates", it told me everything was up to snuff.

Are you running the free version, or the paid-for one?

One thing the new version has is anti virus monitoring. Its

suppose
to
monitor the anti virus program you have installed and let you know

if
there
are any 'lapses' in protection. How? Don't know. Most of the

problems
I
read about so far is related to incompatibility with existing

av's.
BTW
It
doesn't detect Grisoft's AV on my system. On the plus side, it

does
allow
you to disable it. RC

Noel,

It looks like he gave you the latest release number of ZA.

After less than a day of the latest ZA, I've gone back to version 4.5.xxx.
Initially there didn't appear to be any problems, but I then started having
a number of system instabilities such as application freezes and BSODs.
Since going back to the previous version, all of the instabilities have
disappeared.

Hi Tom......

Seems to be a lot of problems being reported by those with McAfee in
particular......on the antivirus ng......I am beginning to be sorry I
mentioned this new version.....grin.

And remember what I said (many times).......Zone Alarm 'beta tests' its new
stuff on the unsuspecting public. It always has bugs in it.....so I always
stay one or two versions back......
