Want to install Zone Alarm free

Feb 10, 2005 2 Replies

I have McAfee VS and the free McAfee Firewall that came with it. I am on Cable connection (which I understand might have a firewall). I also have Ad-aware (free).


1 - How can I check if I am protected enough?


2 - When I tried to ADD the free Zone alarm Firewall, I got a message that it was not compatible with McAfee and that I should remove McAfee first. Do I have to uninstall McAfee VS also? or just the firewall? Is there a virus scanner in Zone Alarm?


3 - Any ideas how I should proceed from here?



If you have mcafee firewall keep it, no need to use zone alarm.

  1. Download Spybot 1.3 and install. Also download cwshredder and hijackthis

2 & 3. Many applications require anti-virus software to be disabled before you install. Disable McAfee and run the ZoneAlarm install.
