ZONE ALARM does not run on Windows Me anymore

I reinstalled Windows Me, acct many errors in program.

I now find that there is no more version of this popular firewall for
Windows Me.

Is there any other free firewall out there that is as good as this
product?

Kindly suggest one.

Thanks.

PS I was forced to buy a new computer, because Windows me was running
on a six year old computer and most programs do not support windows
Me. I would still like to use this computer as a spare.

Just run an older version of ZA if you like it. Or you could try Kerio or
Commodo.

Why on earth are you still running that pathetic attempt at an OS called
ME? Do yourself a big favor and dump it and upgrade to one that sort of
works as opposed to that sad thing.

giving a free copy of XP to anyone with an ME license..

They did? I've still got a copy of ME installed on my other PC. Works fine
for me but it is not even connected to the internet and is used for old PC
games. I use it over Win98SE as I don't have to go searching for USB thumb
drive drivers.

Come on, guys. Since the beginning of (digital) time, there are actually
3 products worse than WinME.

ME is indeed sad, however, in all probability the computer would not be able
to handle an upgrade of OS. The OP would probably be better off to just
build a new PC using the latest components.

Why on Mars would you do such a thing?

Duh?

> Is there any other free firewall out there that is as good as this

Sure, but not that will run on ME... which is a basket case OS, and
anyone running it should have their heads examined....

> Kindly suggest one.

No...

> Thanks.

You're welcome.

Roger, if I were you, I'd find a copy of Win2k and do yourself a
favor... a 6yo pc is not as old as you'd think, and win2k would run
beautifully on it...
