Triple Defense Firewall™ Next-generation ZoneAlarm firewall technology provides three layers of protection to detect, monitor, and disarm malicious threats—yet it's as easy to use as ever.

• Layer 1: Protects your computer from Internet threats. Blocks hackers from gaining access to your computer by making it invisible to others online; prevents spyware from sending your personal information across the Internet.
• New! Layer 2: Protects your computer's programs. Monitors and stops spyware and malicious programs from attacking legitimate programs; automatically disables harmful programs when they attempt dangerous activities.
• New! Layer 3: Protects the operating system. Guards the core registry and file systems; prevents spyware and malicious programs that may already be on your computer from causing damage or slow-downs.

Powerful Anti-Spyware New anti-spyware technology scans for and removes thousands of spyware traces from your computer.

• Automatic Spyware Treatment removes the most dangerous and useless spyware so you have less to worry about.
• User Configurable White List lets you “clear” legitimate monitoring software (such as cookies for Web sites you use frequently) so it doesn't get picked up in every spyware scan.
• Heuristic Spyware Detection uses pattern-based technology to identify potential spyware
