|
| Review summary | Avast Antivirus 4.7 Home edition works fairly well for a free antivirus protection. | For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance. We recommend it over McAfee Total Protection and Microsoft Windows Live OneCare. | ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 7 provides the perfect balance between best-of-breed security protection and ease of use, providing the home user with superior protection that's light on system resources. | Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7 continues to outshine its competition with its ease of use combined with thorough antivirus protection. | AVG Anti-Virus 8 is solid at finding and removing viruses and spyware as well as blocking Web threats, but could be lighter on system resources and provide more technical support options. |
