Testing Details
Who is eligible to test?
This is an open Beta and anybody is welcome to participate.
We do NOT suggest using Beta software unless you are familiar with editing the registry, manually removing the product, and so on. Remember that there is NO technical support for the Beta versions.
IMPORTANT: We do not support upgrades from Beta to any shipping version. Once a beta expires (every Beta build hard expires after 60 days) users will need to either upgrade to a newer beta build or uninstall the beta and re-install a shipping client version. If you had a valid license key before you installed the beta build, it will still be on the system and a shipping build will recognize it.
How to help make this Beta more successful:
- Please only test on: Windows XP/Vista (32-bit)
- Please make sure to not report issues that are listed under "Known Issues"
- Please make sure to generate a complete memory dump for ANY hang you report. Without that there is little to no value in the bug report.
- Please make sure to run your machine overnight and see if the experience is the same after it has been running for hours/days or if you experience slowdowns, blocked traffic and so on.
- If you have a Notebook, please test hibernate/standby mode and see if the experience is the same after it has been running for hours/days or if you experience slowdowns, blocked traffic and so on.
- Make sure to click all panels and verify that they load and refresh correctly.
- Test each of the features
- Keep an eye on system stability and resource usage while running the ZoneAlarm Beta
- If you report a BSOD, system/program hang or client/truevector crash, please make sure to send us your error logs (instructions can be found on the confirmation mail you will receive when you submit feedback, including your error-submission case number, which will change for every submission you do.)
- Please send detailed feedback using this form: http://www.zonealarm.com/betafeedback
