Protect your Internet connected PC and filter out inappropriate Web  content using this powerful, yet easy to use personal firewall
An  active firewall that constantly analyzes traffic to identify and keep at  bay possible threats is a must have, as most users already know. Among  the best choices there's ZoneAlarm Pro, a powerful security solution  that can protect the computer against Internet attacks, identity theft,  phishing, spyware and more.
Just like in the case of any of it peers,  using such an application will need some time to get accustomed to.  ZoneAlarm Pro's interface, though, is pleasant enough to speed up the  whole process and guide you while trying to take advantage of its  features.

 Since ZoneAlarm Pro provides real time protection  against all threats, its behavior is highly customizable, so you  definitely have to take a look in the settings menu to be sure it  perfectly fits your needs.

 Among the top features, ZoneAlarm Pro  comes with a two-way firewall, identity theft protection, online backup  services and a special tool to analyze the files you download and guard  the computer. The software also helps detect dangerous websites that  are involved in phishing or spyware distribution.

 Besides the  firewall, which obviously enables you to set your very own rules, the  application control feature is one of the things that impressed us the  most during our test, giving you full control over the programs that  need Internet access.

 Gamers will surely be glad to discover the  'Game Mode' that suppresses most of the alerts so you can enjoy playing  with your friends online. Nonetheless, you should be careful when  choosing this mode because it comes with two settings for automatically  answering all alerts with 'Deny' or 'Allow'. The first setting could  block some legitimate applications but it's advisable to use it as the  second choice could allow unknown software to penetrate your defense.

 That being said, ZoneAlarm Pro remains one of the top security  solutions out there and it provides very strong protection in a highly  customizable and user friendly package.
