Zone Alarm Information

Prepared by Dr. Spiegel

Following is information to familiarize you with ZoneAlarm. ZoneAlarm is a program that controls what programs in your computer can access the internet, both for outbound and incoming traffic.

You can access these screens and more by downloading and running this: zatutor_za.exe

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

It is recommended that you check the Don’t show this dialog again box. You can see the alerts recently generated if you’re curious if anyone has tried to intrude onto your computer

 

To check and change the settings for a program, go to the Program Control screen. It shows the permissions for each program you’ve run that tries to access the internet. A √ means the program has permission, a ? means ZoneAlarm will ask, and an X means the program is barred from internet access.
