Just wonder if any body else who use's zone alarm/anti virus, has noticed the program saying update service is running out in a few days, i should still have 3 month's. Zone alarm help centre said to follow supplied instuctions to remove the program, which removes the key/date also. So did that, followed it to the letter, re installed zone alarm it did work. untill i rebooted then it stated 15 days :thinking :bang: : LOL :bonk: so it hasnt worked. I have written back :D i have a 2 computer key, the other one which is on vista is ok.!!;)
So if any one can advise..:shrug:
 
I use Zone Alarm. But I don't understand your question. What are you trying to do? What is your problem?
 
Install the free AVG edition instead.
 
I have ZA free firewall and occasionally it asks me to update and sends you to a payment site, so I never updated. I intend to get Nod32 or Kaspersky av\suite next.

I paid for the antivirus updates on the zonealarm for 12 months, its deceided to run out after 10 months, they know about it and have said i need to reinstall the program but delete the current one first, in the way below , but still after all that comes back to 15 days trial version, after puting key back in.
