My only real gripe with Zone Alarm (I have the Pro version with ad blocking) is that sometimes it blocks sites or PDFs from sites but they don't show up on the list and you have to enter them by hand before you can reset them not to block ads, cookies or popups ... then again I'd rather it error to the safe side and block an occasional good site than miss a bad ones and my machine gets slammed with a virus, trojan or spyware ... as far as a straight hack into a machine, if you have a router that's newer than 5 or 6 years then you have a hardware NAT firewall that stops straight hacks (It won't stop spyware or virus bots though hence the need for a software firewall) JR ------------------------ Yahoo!
