Windows Millennium Firewall

Zone Alarm free edition installed two years ago provides outbound protection but
has not blocked intrusions since July 2006 when Microsoft stopped supporting Windows
Millennium. Any recommended free firewalls available that are compatible with WM?
Thanks.

I still have the old version of Zone Alarm 2.6. It works fine when I turn it on and
use it. Only do that if I connect without My Router. Firewalls are not like Anti
Virus software you don't need to update them. You can find all the Free Firewalls
at oldversion.com if you want to try something else.

Is it possible that the reason the status page indicates zero intrusions is that
there have been no attempts to do so? Thanks for the firewall web site.

Check your Firewall at GRC.com. I think the owner of the Web site still uses zone
alarm 2.0 himself. He also has a lot of info on computer security
