8.0 The Desk Band Toolbar

ZoneAlarm can be minimized as a docking toolbar providing quick visual reference on Internet activity. This allows you to access ZoneAlarm's features quickly with minimal screen space usage.

To restore the main ZoneAlarm window, click the ZoneAlarm button on the toolbar.

When Internet access has been locked with High Security, the center STOP button will change to a green GO button. Clicking on the GO button again restores Internet access.

If the Automatic Lock has engaged the Lock icon will display with a red X on it. Click on the Lock icon to lock/unlock Internet access.

Activating the Desk Band

To activate the toolbar on Windows 98, Windows 2000 or other Windows versions with the Internet Explorer 4 Shell Update, right-click on the Windows Taskbar and select "Toolbars" and then "ZoneAlarm Desk Band".

   

When running on Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 without the Internet Explorer 4 Shell Update, go to the Configuration panel and click on the "Show shell toolbar" checkbox to activate the Desk Band toolbar.  Note that in this configuration, the toolbar can only float above the desktop and in some instances can cover icons in the system tray.

The name of the Desk Band can be removed by right clicking on the name and deselecting the Show Title option. Then you can resize the Desk Band by moving the left side to the right.
