Ladies and gentlemen, I highly recommend that you jump onto this opportunity while you can. ZomeAlarn Pro is an amazing piece of security software. Just note, this is does not have antivirus. If you want antivirus, for free, you have three options:

Avira (antivirus + antirootkit)
Avast (antivirus + antispyware + antirootkit)
AVG (antivirus + antispyware)

All three of these antivirus software are very dependable – they offer excellent protection. But out of all three of these, Avira > Avast > AVG. Note: the free antivirus are only for home/personal use.

Get ZoneAlarm Pro, Avira, and be happy =).
