    I got another computer for my living room. Can I use Zone Alarm on two computers?
    (I no longer have the agreement.)

    Legally, I don't think so. You should have a license agreement. Why not use Zone Alarm free on the other? Also, if your using a router, your behind a hardware firewall automatically, which is even better protection.

    Thanks for the help. I already have Zone Alarm free on the original compouter. No, I wasn't planning on using a router. Maybe I should find another firewall for the second computer, which has XP. This laptop is a new challenge. At the moment I'm trying unsuccessfully to get it open! There are 2 latches at the front that open it a wee bit and no more! I can't find any other latch. The old computer is looking better by the minute!

    You can use ZoneAlarm Free on the other computer too. You can also try other firewalls if you like. See the below link for a couple of other free firewalls. This link gives provides a load of other very useful tips.
