Version 3.0 STILL Buggy

Written: Aug 27 '02
Pros:V 3.1 Interface is a lot cleaner Installs and auto-detects networks and VPN's nicely
Cons:I had to uninstall mine...too many freezes and crashes.
The Bottom Line: Get the bugs out.

I used 2.6 for ages with no problems...until despite the warnings of others here I (imagining some kind of papal dispensation that made me immune to these problems) I went ahead and paid for Ver 3.1 Pro.

Sighs..what a dissapointment...freezes, blue screens, spontaneous re-boots....the whole enchilada, until looking at the Win 2k Event file I could see that it was the "True Vector" engine that was kicking up an error just before every crash.

My system is a fully qualified machine with all the correct and up to date MS revs and no oddball apps. I even did a clean OEM reinstall and everything is just fine until ZoneAlarm is back on.

In every other respect the product looks great and seems to want to work well..but no dice for me. It's cost me a lot of valuable time and energy.

Recommended: No
