Zonealarm and ME
Hi nicdig,
I have been using ZoneAlarm Free for many years now and never had any problems. It does not appear to be a resource "hog" on my WinME system. The last version of ZA Free compatible with WinME is 6.1.744.001, subsequent versions only run on WinXP. This can be downloaded at http://download.zonelabs.com/bin/fre...seHistory.html -- Delboy A common mistake that people made when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. Douglas Adams "Nicdig" wrote in message ... Hi-I just got a used pc for my teen, that has windows Me preinstalled. I would guess this pc is a 2000 yr. I have been successfull installing and using the DSL, anti virus & spyware removal programs; along with others. DOes this version of windows have system restore & a built in firewall?? I am used to using XP home on other pc's that I have. So this is all new to me. I tried installing ZA but, towards the end, i think that I needed to get another version compatible with this older pc. ALso, where can i find the system restore options (if this version has it) so that I can make sure that they are ON and configured. ANy other tips for the ME would be appreciated. thanks |

Zonealarm and ME
These requirements are for versions AFTER 6.1.744.001. (V6.5.XXX. etc)
V6.1.744 was the last version to run on ME/98 etc.. When I downloaded and attempted to install v6.5, I was rewarded with a message saying "You need XP to run this version". I do not update now and work on the principle that ME is so old hat and thin on the ground that hackers etc will probably only develop new hacks for XP etc. Of course if anybody out there knows differently ..... -- Delboy A common mistake that people made when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
