ZA needs the existing version uninstalled first.

I'll try not to let this get nasty -you know my opinion of Personal Firewalls already :-)
Those comments about BID were made when it was a pure IDS system. Also note the blatant biased favoritism for ZA by that person who shall remain nameless (Steve Gison).

93679 2002-10-29 01:54:00 I had endless probs with the free zone alarm version on both my computers running XP. Prior to that no probs at all. I kept getting disconnected continually, my ISP told me zone alarm was not compatible with XP and to try another firewall. So I uninstalled zone alarm and installed a free firewall called sygate and have had no probs since.
