Instant Messaging Security provides all-in-one simplicity for the casual computer user. Unlike other Internet security suites, ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite incorporates instant messaging security to ensure that IM conversations are private and secure, regardless of service or client used. Instant Messaging Security protects AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ, MSN Messenger and Yahoo! Messenger so that home and office workers don't have to change their IM habits or software in order to be protected. The Message Encryption prevents IM session eavesdropping. Other IMsecure features defend PCs against IM spam (called 'spim') and risks posed by IM vulnerabilities (including common attacks such as buffer overflows, invalid messages, unsafe scripts, and executable URLs).

·	Older operating systems, even when still supported by the creating company, often have technical limitations that make it impossible to properly protect our customers using new and advanced ZoneAlarm technology.

·	When the creating company stops fixing the new “holes” discovered by hackers in its operating system, customers are much more vulnerable to attack.

·

ZoneAlarm strongly encourages its customers to adhere to a “best practices” approach to security, where each best practice that’s upheld makes the customer much less likely to fall victim to attack; and every best practice ignored makes the customer much more vulnerable. Keeping software, including the operating system, up-to-date with the latest security patches is an essential best practice.
