Operating System Firewall (OSFirewall™)
No anti-virus or anti-spyware product is 100% effective, so ZoneAlarm invented the OS Firewall. The OS Firewall monitors behaviors within your computer to spot and stop even the most sophisticated new attacks that bypass traditional anti-virus and security suites.

* Advanced Access Protection New – specifically defeats new, advanced attacks that other firewalls miss like raw data access, timing, SCM and COM attacks.

* Program Control – restricts programs from malicious activities, blocking attacks that by-pass other defenses.
* Early Boot Protection – Uniquely protects your operating system during start-up before most security products have even loaded.

Additional Layers
Multiple layers of advanced protection provide unsurpassed security.

* Anti-Spam – filters out annoying and potentially dangerous emails.
* Parental Control – filters and blocks inappropriate websites in over 30 categories; scans uncategorized websites to determine appropriateness.

* Web Browser & Plug-in Exploit Protection – Each time you visit a website, open a new page, or download a file, everything that could attack you or your PC goes to a temporary, virtual version of your browser. That way, if any threats do penetrate your defenses, only the temporary browser is infected. Not your computer.
* Drive-by Download Blocking – Detects and blocks unauthorized downloads and malicious software installations and alerts you to attacks before they begin.
