Getting ZoneAlarm and Commview to work with Vista

[T Sizzles]

How to get ZoneAlarm and Commview to work with Windows Vista:

NOTE: This may or may not work. When I first tried it, it didn't work. It now usually works for me.

1. Right click your ZoneAlarm icon, and select properties:


2. Select the "Compatibility" at the top, then check the box, and in the dropdown menu select "Windows XP".


3. Right click your Commview icon, and select properties:


4. Select the "Compatibility" at the top, then check the box, and in the dropdown menu select "Windows XP".

Windows Vista has been out for almost two weeks. I currently have it on the PC im using now and it's Genuine. It's not that hard to go out and buy it.

The problem for me isn't running the program. It's installing it. Any suggestions?

[habitatjoiskater]

yeah i need to install it so how do i do soo???tuts ne1 plz

[PirateZac]

I wouldn't advise anyone to install it onto Vista. It created a .DLL error that forced me to reboot from scratch. That's the bullet I had to bite for science I guess.

one thing this is a bump and two u cant install programs that arent compatible with vista the only was to use zonealram and commview is if u upgraded from xp and didnt delete the files if u did yur outta luck. thats wut i know

that's gay. How do i standby now? Stupid vista

[shudogg]

well it is still possible, just gotta get new progs. Zone alarm has a beta out that is for vista, maybe even a final release by now. My issue is I bridge through a router, so I gotta use cain & abel to poison the packets, but cain doesn't use my network card right with the new way vista handles things. Vista is IPv6, and shows my info all weird in cain and wont show any data coming through.

Okay, I get Zone alarm installed and that all of the sudden I can't connect to anything concerning the internet. Then my diagnostic tells me that there is another firewall blocking the net. Assuming it's Zone alram I turn off all firewall, even the Vista Firewall, and still can't connect to ****. Any syggestions?
