Useless. No page such as suggest.zonealarm.com found. Extension settings open up Checkpoint Harmony, not ZoneAlarm.

the irony Google reports "This extension is not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing." all searches then redirects to Bing servers. =/

You can't even disable or delete this Extention. And it comes pre-installed with the new ZoneAlarm Nex Gen Beta. I never wanted that. And now i can't even deinstall the Extention.
