How does it compare to ZA, Spybot,AdAware,SpywareBlaster, and popup blockers
that are free?

It is free for ComCast Internet customers and comes in one package.
Any user comments?
It contains, I believe:
Parental Control
Firewall
Pop-up stopper
Spyware and adware detectors and removal
Thanks.
PS: I currently use a router with a hardware firewall,ZA-pro, Spybot, AdAware,
SpywareBlaster, and NSW 2003 (I know, I know).
Thanks

I had it and it was nothing but trouble! There's a problem with the spyware
that they use and when I called them about it, they kept blowing me off
saying that one of their software techs will call me for a fix. Well it's
been 3 months and no call. So I use the free spywares and firewall and there
has been no problems. Hope this helps.

My recommendation is you carefully read the Security Form posts at
Comcast.net. There you'll find a wealth of information about Comcast's
Security Manager. Bottom line is that the concensus opinion of those who
have been unfortunate enough to try it is it's a P.O.S.

I would pass on the Comcast suite. My experience with it/them has
been really (!) sub-optimal. No support and many issues. Just my
$.02.
