Description

ZoneAlarm Free Firewall is one of the best rated free firewalls for Microsoft Windows. It was available as a free product for a long time being developed initially by Zone Labs, acquired by Check Point in 2004.

This firewall is well-known for its ability to make your ports invisible by activating the stealth mode, stop inbound or outbound attacks and customize the access of the existing or newly installed programs that attempt to access the Internet or network.

Note: This firewall should work with any other stand-alone Antivirus product or Anti-Malware as long as the other product does not offer its firewall which might interfere with ZoneAlarm Free Firewall.
