#Michael Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Actually 6 had been in beta testing for the last 2-3 months. Guess it has been released to web as final now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 (edited) How do I update to Zone Alarm 6 Pro?? Do I just enter the same licence key from my older version? EDIT: Works fine just by downloading the trial and choosing to "upgrade" Edited July 21, 2005 by Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amr_01 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 if your licence is still good. on their site, search for 15 day trial, install that, and enter your key. Here's the place to get it. Click the pro one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Kompressor Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 cool. but you know what the saying is.... Never buy or upgrade software to any version with .0 eg. 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, there is always a major bug to be fixed in an update so maybe 6.01 and so one would be more stable. ;) I'll still test the trial though. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Floyd Veteran Posted July 21, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2005 the whole suite is taking so much ram. I'll keep kerio 2.1.5 is there any screenshots somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis W. Veteran Posted July 21, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2005 Just updated to 6, vsmon jumped from 7 to 17.? Uninstalled it and now the earlier version will not install. 586248903[/snapback] Vsmon jumped from 11 MB to nearly 25 MB. Memory usage doesn't bother me too much, so I'll let it pass. the whole suite is taking so much ram.? I'll keep kerio 2.1.5is there any screenshots somewhere? 586249556[/snapback] No need for new screenshots. The UI is exactly the same as version 5, except there's some new icons. The new built in anti spyware feature seems to be ineffective - it finished scanning in a few seconds and it detected one of Shareaza's DLLs as spyware. Another new feature, the 'OS Firewall', seems to be interesting. I'd have to use this thing for a few days to test its effectiveness. EDIT: Look at this. Am I seeing something strange here?

TheNay Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Kerio is better I find. ZoneAlarm has become bloated IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Key Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 They should have left'd the anti-spyware program out. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PseudoRandomDragon Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Another new feature, the 'OS Firewall', seems to be interesting. I'd have to use this thing for a few days to test its effectiveness. 586249582[/snapback] Their OS firewall is basically a thing that monitors the activities of program in the computer to prevent programs from hijacking other programs. This new OS firewall seems to monitor process injection, launchers, what program monitors keystrokes/clicks and some other stuff. Basically it is to stop all those leaktests that use unconventional means to bypass software firewalls. Sadly the OS firewall puts ever program that you load in the program list... and I see no option to turn it off. I will not accept seeing MSPaint and Notepad get added to the programs list :rolleyes: I think I'll pass on this update until ZoneLabs is finally arsed to do things right.
