Yes.

Why not just dropping Zone Alarm?

Kyle Stedman about "Personal Firewalls" in c.s.f

I've installed Sygate's free product so that I have a 2-way firewall
while ZA is causing these problems. But I was happy with ZA and
supposedly it will work with Avast as long as Privacy is switched off,
which is what I'm trying to do.

I've used ZA for years and it's served me well. Is Sygate free any
better/worse? It seems to be updated far less frequently since when I
went to update the quite old copy I had, it said there were no updates
available. This must be a concern; ZA seems to have an update every
other month.
