    Nod32 is good. Also AVG pro is worth a look at.

    Kaspersky Internet Security would be my recommendation.

    I dont think Nod or AVG come in a Security Suite package ?? I am pretty sure they are standalone AV software but will stand corrected as I dont use them.

    Sorry to jump in the thread but we use to have a big thread on whats good and whats crap with internet security packages. Somebody mentioned Norton 360 was okay too.

    P.S

    There use to be a list of free applications for the financially challenged. Hope so one starts it again.

    We have found Rising Antivirus and Firewall to be excellent. It is on our 3 computers with legit copies and they all have had no problems.One computer is used by the boys!!!! A pain to set for networking the comps but can be done.
    We have full scan set daily at 4.00am. Have found it very quick to inform you when downloading something suspect.

    I use to use trend micro pc cillin and was a big fan but thier latest is a resource hog.
    My favs now are:

    1/ Avira AntiVIr premium, has won many awards. Using it now check it out.

    2/ Kaspersky

    3/ Nod32

    Default Security Suite

    We have been using the ZoneAlarm security suite for a few years now. One subscription can be installed on up to three computers.

    Works OK for us.

    Cheers

    I would try Kaspersky first.

    There is a free 6 month subscription with March Australian PC Authority.

    I think there is a reset for kaspersky available on the site that you are reading this ........bonus

    cheers

    I just installed AVG a/v pro version 8.0.85. This comes complete with anti spyware installed in the software along with all the usual AVG features. As an add on it has a yahoo toolbar but I took it off as I use mr google.
    So far it is a lot better than having two programmes running when one will do the same job.
    BTW, I use windows firewall.
