This company has completely lost all of my trust, They bundled adware and other stuff in the installer.

I like the firewall, one of the best.
They focus on enterprise.

I believe that info on that site is bogus, there is nothing listed on their homepage about even for a new beta version.
Download links on that site is for older versions of ZoneAlarm products- version 12.0.104.00 when the current version is 12.0.121.000.

That website is probably just a third-party resale site trying to promote a product that doesn't even exists.
Why does it posts news for a new version with no current download links for it?

ZoneAlarm 2015 does not exist.

Thanks.

Surprised there was no public beta.

I'm not sure what Checkpoint is trying to do, no mention of this version on their website or forums but the Facebook page includes a new version 13.0.104.000.

Download Link for ZoneAlarm FREE Antivirus + Firewall- http://download.zonealarm.com/bin/free/1650_za/zaSetupWeb_130_104_000.exe

No download links available for their free stand-alone firewall or trial version of their paid products.

You must install their adware toolbar in order to receive product updates which will change your default search engine and homepage on your browsers and locks them.

No changelogs have been posted for this version- http://sc1.checkpoint.com/sc1/za/release-history/zafree.html

The last thing I heard was they were going to discontinue the home user products and only focus on enterprise solutions.
I'm really surprised to see a new version.

Thanks.

It is mentioned "New AV Engine", have they replaced Kaspersky Engine?

 

[nsm0220]

what was i testing then and i though it was the 2014 version?

I installed it in Sandboxie, the GUI is exactly the same as the previous version 12.0.121.000 and it uses the same exact Kaspersky engine version 8.3.3.9 as the previous version. I don't see any changes to speak of.

Thanks.

The people who manage the social media may have gotten a little too excited.. I think it's a ploy to get people chattering about ZA 2015.

Updates are still once in 24 hrs.
Cloud protection only in paid products.
Webshield only in paid products

Is it an old or latest Kaspersky engine?

 

[ifacedown]

I notice that ZoneAlarm is a little heavy on the system.

 

[Littlebits]

Is it an old or latest Kaspersky engine?

It is the latest Kaspersky Anti-Virus Software Development Kit (SDK) engine that Kaspersky leases to OEM.

Kaspersky never leases their latest engine used in their own products. Most AV vendors don't either.

Thanks.

Presently i have Webroot installed in my Home PC. Will this work along with Webroot ? Or will I have to un install existing software ?

no you can't have two av's running at the same time

Not true, Webroot can run along side with many AV's whether it will run with ZoneAlarm I can't say.
