Nobody stole anything... it's a partnership.
Thanks guys,
Since my Panda subscription is running out I was thinking about using
the ZA one, since it just magickly appeared in an update. Got lots of
time on that subscription.
 
It's CA eTrust EZ AntiVirus.

I think CA stole it from ZA. Or vice versa.

I believe that CA has permission to use the ZA client (CA.EXE) in the
firewall prog for the same reason that RoadRunner is distributing EZ Armor.
Both are 3rd party distributors of the software and helps license it through
eTRUST. However, ZA/ZAPro is different. I believe that Zone Labs made a
custom version for their exclusive use. However, the only part that is ZA
is the EZFirewall (AFAIK). ZA get royalties one way or another.

I already subscribe to both, what happens when it is time to upgrade? Will
one version conflict with another? Will both recognize each other?
