Anti-spyware and Zonealarm

I have installed the beta version of anti-spyware and was wondering if there
would be any conflicts with the free version of Zonealarm Firewall which I
also have installed?

No incompatibility issues or conflicts:

I'm running both ZAP 6.0 and MSAS plus AdAware and NAV 2005 in this
configuration. All of these address spyware to some degree.

At present here's my sit-of-the-pants guess at their respective abilities:

(1) AdAware SE - has better configuration and control. Has better update
frequency. No real-time protection. Addresses tracking cookies.

(2) MSAS - does well at real-time detection/protection and removal. Has
great promise. Has serious update problems. Does NOT address tracking
cookies.

(3) NAV 2005 - addresses those problems that are truly malware.

(4) ZAP 6.0 - very basic anti-spyware abilities.
Addresses tracking cookies.

FWIW, I don't run into much spyware on this system and I put some effort
into keeping things that way.<g>
