[QUOTE="Mr.X, post: 797952, member: 26016"] ZoneAlarm was one of the first vendors to switch to WFP when Microsoft pushed it out on Windows Vista. WFP is "official" way of making a proper Firewall component in Windows nowadays (like through an NDIS 6.xx driver). Another member posted a thread on the forum awhile back about WFP and Windows Firewall myths... so before you get your knickers in a twist because I told you that ZoneAlarm uses WFP, just remember that it isn't the same thing as "ZoneAlarm uses Windows Firewall", because that's simply not the case. It's important that I address that now because I am a fortune teller as my main career, and boy, I could see some real temper tantrums upcoming. If you're making a Firewall for Windows in 2019 and aren't using WFP then you're doing it wrong and should start seeking a priest to perform your exorcism - WFP is robust and extensively used.
