Hi Glenna,
Memory is important but not the only thing that will affect resources. I
used to run zone alarm on 98SE and M E and running zone alarm never dropped
my system resources more than 7 or 8 percent. I can't imagine it dropping
yours 30 percent. I'm not doubting that you are giving the facts but it
sounds like it would be a good idea to go to sygate or another firewall
program until you can actually move up to windows XP, which handles
resources better than 98.

Subject: firewall and resources
Hi, I need some help and information, please. Presently I am running jaws
5.0884 and windows 98se, and I have 512mb of memory. I have about fifteen
essential programs running in the background.
I tried to add a fire wll program called Zonealarm, with all that my
resources are %78 free. After I installed Zonealarm, it went down to %48. I
know I should have a firewall, but when I got more memory, I thought it
would help. Please help.
