Completely forgot about ZoneAlarm. I remember using it in the early 2000s!

Same. And in a similar vein--AnalogX NetStat Live.

I read ZoneAlarm and it was like suddenly a part of my brain that went unvisited for 25 years lit up...

I helped administer the CheckPoint commercial version of this before 2010 in a large enterprise (Checkpoint Integrity it was badged as). Really good product though we did have some bugs with it - I do remember the developers from Israel got involved and were very capable.

It mostly worked exactly as you would want a desktop firewall to, and integrated nicely with Cisco VPN tech, so you could ensure Integrity was operating correctly before fully opening up the tunnel for access to corporate assets.

Such nostalgia! I probably forgot about it after switching over to Linux 25 years ago.
