Question About Zone Alarm and Settings

Question

On my other computer Zone Alarm basic does not stop animated banners. When I had NIS 2005 on that machine it kept the banners from moving, don't know if the anti-spam part of the program was doing that. Does anyone know of settings in Internet Options that will keep banners from moving, since Zone Alarm free doesn't do so. With NIS on this computer there are some ads that move, like the MSN home page, but that is about all. I suppose I could go for the more advanced version of Zone Alarm if it has the anti antimated feature. Thanks for any and all suggestions  :smileywink:

I'm running Zonealarm Security Suite, but I let animations on web pages play.
In control panel - internet options - advanced tab, there is an option for letting
animations on web play.
But I do not get popups, or popunders, because I have both XP's & ZA's popup
blockers running.

The few pages where I find them occuring are not that bad...will just ignore them and and save the $49.99 for the Pro. I guess the cool cars work a different way...they add a lot of fun to your posts.  So...ZA and AVG are installed and active on my 8400 with no problems...NIS just a bad memory. ZA and Avast are doing well on my backup 4600.  I use that one very little other than to turn it on about every two weeks and update the spyware and anti-virus programs.  :smileyvery-happy:

Glad you like the cars. Most of my macro's are car related.
Had some real cool one's when we could use applets & CSS in the Loonie Bin aka Scratch Pad.
Did some nice Lake applets using the pic below.
We just happen to own this one.
ZA is just a little bit annoying untill you get it trained, but its been so much
more stable with my XP Home & my 8400, then NAV ever was.
And the faster boot & shut down times are a bonus.
