ZoneAlarm is the granddaddy of all personal firewalls. It was on the market before most of us ever heard the phrase “personal firewall.” ZoneAlarm’s security suite was showing its age, however, with a dated user interface. Thanks to a comprehensive makeover, the main display in ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 2009 (also known as ZoneAlarm Internet Security 8.0) has an entirely new look. Once you get past that façade, though, things are much the same as in version 7.0. In some areas, ZoneAlarm actually seems to be losing ground by not advancing fast enough. Even so, it’s still among the best security suites. It costs $69.95 for three licenses or $49.95 for one, but for a limited time you can get the three-license version for the one-license price.
