    I dont see why not...but this is depends on your subcribtion. If your subscribtion is out, then you most likely have to paid for the upgrade.

    I have ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite (latest version)

    I believe that you cannot upgrade from major version releases (3.x to 4.x, 5.x to 6.x, or etc...) for free.

    You can only upgrade for free with updates for a one version. (3.6 to 3.7, 4.1 to 4.3, etc...)

    But it does not matter. Go get Zone Alarm (non-Pro), its FREE and works like the Pro without the useless options that most people dont even use when they purchase the Pro version.

    Hope this helps,

    I had ZAPro on my desktop, and it upgraded fine from a 3.x to somewhere in the mid 4.x's.

    As long as you have a valid subscription (it was pretty cheap from my recollection), you should be fine. I didn't bother doing it this year because my ISP bundled all of Norton's AV and Firewall programs into one. Overall, I'd say Pro was a better bet than the standard (free) version. But, others have had great results with the Suite program offered by ZA.
