Question about Zonealarm

[John]

I'm runnung XP with Cox cable with Zone Alarm. Been using it the last couple
years with no problem. About 3 days ago my computer slowed to a crawl while
trying travel the internet. B-4 that it was running really well as I traveled
the net.

I keep 3 images by Ghost. Saved my data and restored each one. The oldest one
about 7 weeks back.

No change. I called Cox tech and they tryed to help. Not much luck there
except to say they thought it was my firewall. It did seem to run bnetter when
Zonealarm was not loaded. I say it Seemed!!!

I'd like to try something else that will do what Zonealarm does. Stop traffiic
both ways. Stopping popups would be nice also.

Any Ideas.
Appreciate it John
