That folder belongs to ZoneAlarm.

If ZA is running, you will not be able to get rid of some files as they will
be in use.

Deleting some files will cause you to have to setup ZA all over again. Will
reset to factory defaults and any customizations will be lost.

"Wouldn't it be possible to remove older archived logs?"

Of course, and you do that inside Zone Alarm.

I wonder. Checking the ZoneAlarm setting for Alerts & Logs it shows that
ZALog.txt is the currently used log file. All others are archives
(date/time-stamped). Wouldn't it be possible to remove older archived
logs? I don't see how the logs would have anything to do with settings.
Examining them I see that there isn't anything important regarding
use of the program itself.

I could be wrong, of course.
