| I have been using the internet for last four years and everything worked fine. However, until four months ago, I could not defend from all sorts of viruses, spywares and adwares. I reinstalled Windows several times but it did not help me for a long. After a day or two on the Internet, I have the same problems again. I think I have good reasons to use a firewall. Are there any better browsers than IE? |

| Of course there are other browsers beside the Internet Explorer. Some of the most popular are Netscape navigator, Mozila Firefox and Opera. Many users also claims that they are so much better and safer then the Internet Explorer. I disagree with them. I am also on the Internet almost 12 hours per day, I am using Internet Explorer and I don't have any problems. By my experience, you need some anti-spyware software like SpyBot, which is completely free. Second thing you need is some good anti-virus software which is also free. I personally use AVG and I am completely satisfied. If you have Microsoft Windows XP, you also have to check do you have Service Pack 2 installed. If don't then download and install it. All those things will not slow your machine much but will give you enough protection. |

If you want a really safe browser, there are some programs that browse the internet with security as their top priority. One of these is ZoneAlarm ForceField, which I'm telling potential users about- anyone, like you, who seems like they could benefit from it.
ForceField acts as a barrier between you and the internet, so keyloggers, spyware, phishing, etc. can't get through to your computer. If you'd like to learn more or even try our free beta, it would be the perfect solution to your concerns.
Good luck to you!
