Stace Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I want to know how to uninstall the Windows Vista firewall because I don't think it works really well. I want to install Zone Alarm instead. My last question is if I uninstall Vista firewall, would I be able to reinstall it in case I need it later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Check under Add/Remove Windows Components if there is an option to remove it. If not, then you may not be able to uninstall it, but I'm sure you can just disable it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I tried to install Zonealarm, Windows wouldn't let me even dowload it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Where did you try to download it from? Note that you must use ZoneAlarm 7.1 for Vista. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
