Spyware, viruses, & security : Turning off ZoneAlarm Spam Blocker
Turning off ZoneAlarm Spam Blocker
by NickMets7 - 3/31/07 10:57 AMHello everyone. Since the new free version of ZoneAlarm came out, I decided to download it and upgrade from the old free version (now I have the latest version 7.0.337.000). This version includes a new feature - Spam Blocking. Unfortunately, I don't need it because I have Outlook 2003 and that blocks spam perfectly well - I don't need an extra. Does anyone know how to turn this feature off in the Free version? The HELP guide only describes how to do this for the full-paid Security suite, and I have no idea how to do turn Spam Blocker off in the new free-version.
Thanks for all your help!
- Nick

In Microsoft Outlook navigate via Tools > Options > Advanced Options > Com Add-Ins. Remove the tick from MailBuddy Outlook Addin. This will remove the problem. To restore MailBuddy Outlook Addin just replace the tick.

Below solution was posted in my forums (Calendar of Updates):
http://www.dozleng.com/updates/index.php?showtopic=13625
"ZoneAlarm 7.0.337.000 (free) installs a software called 'MailFrontier', which in turn installs a scanner & toolbar in Outlook. I am not sure if everybody wants that - I certainly don't!
Unlike with 7.0.302.000, there is no uninstaller in Add/Remove Programs. However, there is still a way to uninstall it:
Close Outlook
Windows Explorer, open C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\MailFrontier
Double-click UNWISE.EXE
When prompted for the install.log file, use C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\MailFrontier\INSTMLF.LOG
on the MailFrontier uninstall panel, select Automatic [Next>], then [Finish]"
Give it a try Nick.
2nd Option Works!

Thank you for the quick response! I had already tried the 1st option, but everytime I'd delete the add-in, it would just re-install itself upon re-opening Outlook.
That being said, the 2ND OPTION WORKED after restarting my computer and deleting the MailFronteir folder.
Thank you again!
