I am currently running PC-Cillin as my Anti-Virus Program and Zone Alarm Pro
as my firewall. I have had no problems or virus issues.

I received the new Security Upgrade Disk from Microsoft and along with it
came a disk containing the EZ-Trust Anti-Virus and Firewall combination with
a free one year subscription.

My question is, should I change, and would there be any benefit to make this
change other than a cheaper price? If not, why not? Would this be a
downgrade?

Awaiting your suggestions and replies. Thanks.

As far as detection of malware is concerned, both (PC-cillin & EZ-Trust)
are fairly similar in their detection rates. I personally prefer
PC-cillin, but for a lot of subjective reasons. I use TrendMicro
Internet Security, which includes some firewall capabilities, on my
systems which I do not share.

EZ-Trust's firewall is a version of Zone Alarm Pro. So, if you wanted to
continue on with ZA, you have some choices going with EZ-Trust.
 
Isnt the EZ-Trust version of ZA an older one?

Personally, if you are looking for a free alternative I would recommend an
Avast/ZoneAlarm combination.
