The best inbound and outbound firewall available
ZoneAlarm Free Firewall, the best inbound and outbound firewall available to consumers, stops threats others miss and is faster to install and run.
ZoneAlarm Free makes it easy. Unlike other personal firewalls, ZoneAlarm protects automatically from the moment it`s installed - no programming required.
ZoneAlarm Free can barricade your PC with complete and immediate port blocking. And, then runs in Stealth Mode to make your PC invisible on the Internet - if you can`t be seen, you can`t be attacked.
ZoneAlarm Free delivers simplicity without compromising your security.
A getting started tutorial explains controls and alerts to get you up and running quickly. And, to keep you confident that you`re always protected, intuitive color-coded alerts rate security risks - in real time.
For basic, "no frills" firewall protection, ZoneAlarm free is the popular first step for many home PC users. And it`s still FREE for individual & non-profit use.
Note:
The application provides two installation modes. The Quick one will also install ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker Toolbar. If you do not want to install this toolbar system, you are advised to select the Custom installation.
