I'm sorry,
I was just using ZoneAlarm as just one example.

I'm still running Windows 7, because I don't like how Win 10 forces on you all their *Crap* when you install it.
Then makes it a pain to remove said *Crap*, or just shut it off.
And even when I shut it off, when the monthly software Patch\Update comes in, it turns the stuff back on.

But ZoneAlarm has worked very well for me.
Stopping attacks, and keeping most spyware off my system.
But if there is one thing I would change about it.
It would be the Control Console.
Cleaning out old settings in it can take up a lot of time.
And in some cases, only resetting ZoneAlarm back to it's Default Settings.
Will clear out bad, or corrupted settings in the Control Console.
