I concur on Zone Alarm, I have had it running for about four months and it
has prevented over 20,000 possible incursions. Can't wait to try Ad Aware.

Subject: A couple of free software programmes I would heartedly recommend to
Museum colleagues
Hello to the list,
One of my university colleagues recommended these two FREE software products
to stop ad/spyware and to provide a firewall to identify (and repel)
unwanted intrusion from the Web.
I was a bit sceptical, but my PC was getting a bit slow and so I used the
Ad-aware first - 96 'nasties' found and eliminated!

Zone Alarm ( firewall)

ome_zainfo
( make sure you download the FREE version which is the firewall only)
Best of all both are EASY to install - thought I'd share them with you
best wishes to all
Roger
