Removing system security, antivirus and anti-spyware tools from your computer might not always be that easy, since the typical uninstall process using the 'Add / Remove Programs' section in your computer is not always totally effective, leaving traces of application usage in the registry. In this case, a specialized uninstaller is required, in order to permanently remove previously installed security software.
Such an application is Zone Alarm Uninstall, a lightweight and simple utility with a pretty self-explanatory name. The program is designed to help you remove Zone Alarm software and all their leftovers from your computer.
The program does not provide you with many options to choose from. Once you run it, the program scans the computer for Zone Alarm products and identifies their installation location. The uninstall process is even easier than the regular procedure of removing Zone Alarm applications and takes less time. The main window displays the operation progress and notifies you when the task is finished.
Zone Alarm Uninstall is compatible with all the Zone Alarm products, allowing you to permanently delete them and clean your computer entirely. Since it deals with system registry entries, administrator rights are required to run it.
Once the uninstall process is finished, you are prompted to restart the system. This operation is mandatory in order to remove the security tool remains in the system.
Zone Alarm Uninstall is a simple tool that comes in handy if the regular method of removing programs from the system fails. Using this dedicated uninstaller, you avoid cleaning application registry leftovers manually and make sure that the new security product you want to install works as it should, without causing system instability.
