Configuring ZoneAlarm firewall version of the 2012 10.1.101.000

How to configure Zonealarm firewall with Avast Free?

Nothing special to do.
Configuration by default runs perfectly.

Regards.

that is best left as is

Just that ZoneAlarm should allow avast! to connect (to update, etc.). Otherwise, ZA will block avast! correct functioning :slight_smile:

nice idea, but what happens if AVAST downloads a newer version and asks you to reboot so it can install it?
answer: that newer module tries to connect to the internet just after boot, before explorer and ZoneAlarm have started. And since it is a new version, the resident of ZA tries to ask permission, and cannot.

Deadlock in my case. 2 days ago.

and how to check that ?

how to do that? how to know my ZA firewall is not blocking AVAST?

Well if your avast is updating would be a good sign :slight_smile: in the ZA application list ( if that is what it’s called in ZA as I don’t use it ) make sure all avast processes are set to allow all.

What do you think? see the picture pls

That looks alright to me but it’s a bit of a confusing UI, you may need to wait for someone that has ZA experience to check this out.

What’s under the Application control tab?

this

Not much there, so much for advanced control :stuck_out_tongue: :slight_smile:

As long as avast is updating properly you should be fine and members with more ZA experience will probably add their opinions when they notice this topic.

thanks for the help and yes avast is updating

All good then and your welcome :slight_smile:
