Average Rating: 
Rating: - Any Defense is Better Than None
I received a Compaq Presario Notebook last Christmas as present. I began learning how to use it's various features. I have taken free trials of various internet services such as AOL to see which I would like best. I consider myself a computer novice and it was months before I realized that I needed Anti-Virus protection as well as hacker protection. So far I've subscribed to McAfee for my AntiVirus. For hacker protection, I downloaded the free basic ZoneAlarm program and then bought the CD software from Black Ice. I find that ZA and Ice work OK together. ZA acts like a doorman and whenever I'm on the internet and I want to download a free program, ZA always answers the knock and asks me if I will allow admittance. After allowing admittance I have found out that while downloading free programs, my Black Ice Defender will allow downloading but will block attempts by the downloading program to access my files and send back info to its source. I get a free download and my personal computer info stays in my computer and isn't allowed to be sent back for anyone's scrutiny. I feel that I have a guard at the door and a guard on patrol. I think the combination of the free zone alarm program and Black Ice Defender make for a dynamic duo that can stop hackers in their tracks. I recommend Black Ice as well as Zone Alarm but Black Ice keeps a detail record of all hacker type attempts as well as pointing a finger back to where the attack came from. I realize that one man's meat is another man's poison and that there are some computer users that may not like Black Ice. All I can say is that any defense is better than none and Black Ice is tough enough for the job needed.
Rating: - Black Ice Defender - Effective and Easy to Use
This program is very effective and easy to use, especially for the novice computer user, although I think even more advanced users think it's great. I was really suprised to see how many attacks were initiated on my system in just one hour. I recommend that everyone get this program, you'll be shocked at what you see going on. Don't think you can just buy things off the net without many people trying to access your computer. After the first day, I got rid of individual hackers who had computers set up to monitor the web for personal computers. Price wise it's definately worth the peace of mind.
Rating: - ZoneAlarm has it all plus more and it is free
One reviewer from Ocala, FL United States wrote, "After [zonealarm] allowing admittance I have found out that while downloading free programs, my Black Ice Defender will allow downloading but will block attempts by the downloading program to access my files and send back info to its source." Zone Alarm does this too but it also encrypts the reference to the program so a trojan horse cannot spoof ZoneAlarm. "Black Ice keeps a detail record of all hacker type attempts as well as pointing a finger back to where the attack came from." Zone alarm does this too. The best on the market is actually free. Search for ZoneAlarm and go with the product our Network Administrator's use at home.
