Interesting... seems their software takes it a couple of steps further than zonealarm's free version. Good find. :)

Gave it a try. Not sure what happened, but it decided adaware and a few other programs did not need to run. Getting ready to check settings to see what I screwed up.

Never mind. doing a quick run thru the settings and i had hit to deny windows explorer from opening applications. (Insert stupid here ;) )

So far it seems to be running pretty good. Stiil have not opened all programs on the computer so it still pops up wanting to see if they should be allowed to run.
