Sick of ZoneAlarm
Im tired of this program. It has the worst uninstall ever!

I have ZA with Virus scan on this PC. It ran out and I needed to renew.

Well at ZA website they had an offer to get the SUITE for free if I signed up with a partner.

I did that and got a free proram plus the key

So I uninstall the old one and install the new...

WHen I reboot it askes me if I want to ungrade or renew my OLD subscription

Then when I look at the program it has the registration key installed from my OLD version and the suite has not reverted to my OLD program install.

So I do some researh and find that ZA is notoreous when it comes to leaving behind stuff after uninstall.

After doing my own search and destroy and finding everything I can. I do another install and the same results...

This is absurd! Im going with Commodo and some other free av

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

it's not worth the pain, honestly. I already went through the tech stuff on how to remove all the stuff left behind. Took a while. It's just not worth it
