  1. Review - ZoneAlarm Antivirus

    5.5.062.004 (Jan 3, 2005)

    As with EZ Firewall, this version works well. However, we need some kind of timer to turn the firewall back on, or a temp switch for when we need to turn the firewall off for downloads, etc. that way, we are covered within a short period of time.

  2. Comment - Mozilla Throws Lightning in Outlook's Direction

    5.5.062.004 (Dec 30, 2004 - 7:06 PM)

    Outlook is not going away, no matter how anyone hashes the Bill Gates world. However, having an alternative to machines targeted for spam is a great idea. And using Mozilla's Firefox and Thunderbird works fairly well. However, having IE as part of the operating kernel leaves a back door to the machines anyway. If you use Outlook, get a software solution like EZ Armor (or Zonealarm) which has the mailsafe pieces encorporated. Or even use the Junkmail function in Outlook. And for those ugly spyware ads showing up, use EZ Pestpatrol.
    Without using another operating kernel such as Linux (whatever flavor), we are still pluging the hole in the dike with our pinky.
