Are you asking if you should upgrade? Ask yourself what reasons you have
for doing so. IMHO...ZAP is 'better' then ZAPro and meets my needs a little
bit better. Every situation and user is different. Choosing a firewall is
a lot like buying a mattress set....very subjective. True some have 'flaws'
but each firewall probably has quirks..it really boils down to which fits
your needs best. I don't think that a free program should continuously
pester you to upgrade to a payed version. If ZAF and it's working fine for
you...don't upgrade. If you don't like the fact that it's telling you to
upgrade, then try some of the other free firewalls like Kerio, Outpost Free,
or Sygate.
