3rd Party Firewall and XP64 or Longhorn

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin (More info?)

Has anyone had any luck getting a third party firewall program to work in
XP64 (Longhorn)? If so what is the name of the software? I have only been
able to find corportate level products (very expensive) that are fully
compatable with XP64.

I use ZoneAlarm Internet Suite on my standard installation of XP pro but
when trying to install in on WinXP64 it hosed the entire installation to the
point where I need to do a re-install. I am looking for a firewall that lets
me configure which apps have access to the internet, etc. I am looking to
fully customize each programs local, network and internet access both up and
downstream.

thanks

Robert;
You seem to be confusing Windows 64 bit for Longhorn.
Longhorn is not yet in Beta while the 64 bit is soon to be released.
Post this question to the 64 bit newsgroups:

The server newsgroup is correct.
