Thanks, fellow Zster! *Downloading it even now! *Very pleased with the way ZL is going with this.

I would say so - they've cleared up a heck of a lot of minor bugs very quickly, and the few bigger glitches I've run into have gone away too. *I'm sure there'll be a release candidate shortly.

Has anyone had any luck getting ZAP 3.0 & IE 6 to work behind a proxy server? * *When I open I.E. it spins trying to get the web page, I see traffic going in and out (through the zap taskbar icon) but it never successfully connects. * I'm using the MS proxy client on my machine, don't know if that matters. *

I'm going to send this to ZL as well.

I HAVE tried the lastest beta, and it seems to work well.

What's your opinion, Checkout? Any major/minor bugs you noticed?

Yes. *I'm seeing the same problem liquid_fish has, but that may be a faulty install by me. *I keep making the same damn stupid mistake of installing more than one item at a time - this time I loaded proxomitron as well as ZAP 3 - so I'll need to back out and start again. *As far as ZAP bugs are concerned, yes, I'm still unable to check the "remember this" box for many connection/server requests. *Other than that, it's a hell of an improvement, particularly in the interface.

Hi,

I stopped using ZA because it reduced my speed very much. Thought I woulf take a look at the new beta. Installed it and uninstalled it within the same 5 minutes. I did not even have time to check how it works in my hurry to get rid of it again. Never have I seen such a GUI. I could never get used to something looking like that. I sit here and look at my screen pretty many hours a day, and I don't like to look at ugly GUIs. As for the rest of the program - I honestly don't know :-)

I guess it's preference thing. *Personally, I like it.
