Hi,
I kinda feel daft asking this but has anyone here uninstalled Zone Alarm free edition on Vista?
I was looking over Tech Spot and saw an article saying that Zone Alarm was incompatible with Vista. Iver been wanting to change to Comodo so now seemed the good time.
So i went to uninstall and uninstalled Zone alarm. However it seemed to crash and then my system wouldn't shut down or restart or even load the task manager.
So i restarted and upon loading it was still there but my internet connection had gone. I reconnected to the net...well tried but it kept coming back with connection failed.
I ran the uninstall again and this time it prompted to restart and then upon restart Zone alarm was gone but the Internet still wasn't connecting. So after trying to renew the connection through command prompt i went and did a system restore.
Upon restore Zone alarm was back but so was the Internet. So i though that the crash had ruined the Internet and went and uninstalled again. However this time everything was smooth and still upon restart Zone alarm was gone but again so was the Internet connection.
I really don't know how to uninstall without loosing the Internet connection.
Cheers,
