Get NOD32 software instead
Pros: nice interface
Cons: ineffective against modern rootkit viruses
I had been using Trend-Micro for 3 years, as it was MUCH better than Norton. However, PC-Cillin recently failed on me badly so now I've moved to a better antivirus:
Reason 1: I got a virus which PC-Cillin did not detect. The virus then DISABLED PC-Cillin, and deleted Safe Mode from my PC. The style of the virus is called a "rootkit".
Reason 2: To their credit their tech-team did analyse the file, and agreed they would update the software to catch the virus. 3 MONTHS LATER the software still does not detect the virus.
Reason 3: Trend Micro have sent me their renewal bill and it is 50% more expensive from last year ($55 last year - $80 this year!!). That is Australian Dollars.
Reason 4: The firewall configuration is clunky, and I still can't work out how to let ICMP packets through. Two emails to their help desk didn't help solve my problem.
Reason 5: I looked around at several other virus checkers. The best one turned out to be NOD32. It detected about 20 virus infected files that PC-Cillin didn't. NOD32 is also faster and cheaper than PC-Cillin, and has a 30 day fully functional trial version.

Loved the old one. HATE the new one!!
Pros: I really can't think of anything good to say
Cons: They overcomplicated their original solution
WORSE - when you do make a setting in one part of the program, it doesn't take it in another part.
I used to be a big fan and highly recommended them to friends. Now I'm telling them to dump it fast!!!

Robust Protection Without PC Slow Down
Pros: Doesn't affect PC Performance
Cons: Took a min to configure
I'm very happy with this product and it does a great job both detecting and removing any spyware and virus.
The only con was it took a little bit to configure it properly, but not a biggie for me.
By far a great product with little to no impact on machine performance and overall has great features.

Excellent - do not believe on those weird bad OPINIONS
Pros: Good Interface, Excellent Virus Detection, AntiFraud Wizard
Cons: Firewall can be Improved
I have previously used Norton and McAfee Internet Security packages and found Pc-cilling to be better than them.
It is better than Norton and McAfee. Fast and does not slow the computer's performance and does not utilize a lot of system resources like Norton and McAfee.
Clean and Fast Install.
AntiSpyware can be improved and Firewall should have more detailed options.

Poor! Wen't back to Norton
Pros: Interface, installation
Cons: Buggy, poor firewall, too simplistic, support sucks
Advice - if the price is too good to be true, it probably is. i.e. McAfee gives their products away, and Trend is ultra low cost. I went back to Norton...not perfect, but alot better than this.

The best Anti-virus I have Found to date, The firewall needs work
Pros: Simple t0 use, great interface and extensive coverage and very reliable!
Cons: The Firewall Is not up to par W/ Mcafee Personal firewall plusFP (+)
I'll tell you what. The poor reviews of the 2006 suite are reviews I hab=ve to disagree with. To me it is an improvement from 2005. The scan times have been decreased by 40% and the interface has been somewhat cleaned up. This is not an overly agressive firewall and should be a great suite for beginner to intermediete computer users. Overall I would rate this product an 8.0. For anybody who is wonderind I also own the "Zone Alarm 2006 Suite" which I use on my personal PC, but the others all have this suite which is more than adequate. I am currently testing the 2007 "PC Cillin Suite" and so far I find slower scans and an increased drag on my PC's recources. The 06 suite shows no such drag. Also and important is the 06 suite can be purchased for $22.00 if you shop on line.

No regrets after getting a fastar, safer and better PC
Pros: Fast, secure and easy
Cons: What do we really know?
It was a relief to discover that Pc-cillin just works and with an easy to use panel.
I am telling everybody I know to convert to the same program (I am that guy everybody ask for help regarding computers), and believe me when I tell you that I get a lot fewer requests of help now than before.
Remember, if you change from Symantec to Trend Pc-cillin, you must use Symatec removal tool to get your machine in shape again.
Even if I'm so far satisfied with Pc-cillin, I still don't know how good the different features are.
I know that the 2006 version has got better reviews than the 2006 version. I think though, that Trend Pc-cillin is here to stay, and that we will se more and more improvements.
I just hope and ask the Australian company who's making this tool will keep it fast and simple, and not do the same mistake as Symantec ? who made a slow big hog that corrupts the pc, leaving a lot of difficulties behind after an uninstall.

Very Comprehensive and useful product
Pros: Quick virus scanning...plenty of options
Cons: could have an easier way to change or designate firewall and network settings
Trend micro on the other hand is just about as comprehensive as mcafee and is easier to use and is NOT a resource hog so my computer is still fast. While i had mcafee on my computer time from signing in to log in was 45 sec. now, and all of the settings are the same even on the reinstalled cpu (and all variables accounted for. eg frgamentation becuase both had same treatments) startup time is 15 SEC yea!!!!
i love this product and when the trial expires i am going to buy it. !!!

All other security suite have major flaws...except this one!
Pros: Good protection, good price, light on resources, worry free!
Cons: None, quality product with no visible flaws
ZoneAlarm has a whole user board full of problems and issues they are having! This security suite, out of all, is screwing up PC's left and right.
McAfee, holding symantecs hand in imbedding itself in your PC making it difficult for users to uninstall their software.
AVG, good but missing some important features.
PC-Cillin has the best of both worlds. I have run it through rigorous tests and it has passed them all with no exceptions. It's virus protection is excellent, firewall is effective, privacy is superb, and overall system performance is outstanding. Install and forget program that doesn't require users to keep making decisions about their security.
The little guys always come out on top! If you are considering changing to a software suite, consider PC-Cillin, and you won't have to worry weather your computer will start after installation.

I am so happy it stinks!!
Pros: It works, fast, easy, perfect!!!
Cons: None I can find so far.
I used to be a Norton customer for almost 20 years. My old software expired, and said i needed to renew my subscription. In the process I bought the combo package of Norton anti virus, firewall, and I believe norton utilities, or whatever the new name is.
It took over my computer, deeper than windows, and prevented me from being able to use my computer for what seemed like many frantic hours. I was just about to re-install windows when I found a way out. It then took much more time to completely get Norton out of my computer.

Works great but minor problems
Pros: Ease of installation, to use, interface, updates, Trend Micro reputation
Cons: Spyware section need improvement, wireless network detection only good if all computers are running TM Internet Security. Customer service not computer techs.
I called customer support about the network detection picking up my router and other computer, and the person I spoke to I am sure was not a computer tech. Every question I asked they put me on hold.
The spyware scanning section needs some improvement. I downloaded their new stand alone spyware program trial from their site. It would be nice if it was included with the Internet Security package.
I think Trend Micro has a good reputation so I am going to continue being a customer.

Back to Zone Alarm for us - this program is a disaster! CNET's rating is way off on this one!!!
Pros: less expensive, abilitity to run scans on all computers on the network.
Cons: have to make separate in/out rules. not intuitive enough. Anti-Spy function is a joke
TM's ability to have one person run a scan on the entire network was a big plus to us.
But TM's rulemaking is really substandard. In particulary, you have to write separate In/Out for all rules, whereas other programs give you the options of In, Out, AND In/Out. Zone Alarm is far more intuitive and allows us to operate at a high security level with relative ease, and without having to go to geek school.
Set at high security, TM asks you one time if you want to allow it. Zone alarm asks you if you want to allow it this time, or always, so if you're not sure that the .dll or whatever refers to, you can allow it this time and wait to see if it asks for the same permission the next time you add the program.
The anti-spyware program is worse than bad. It gives you a list of cookies its classifies as spyware, with a code type. It doesn't tell you what the cookie it, only the type, so you don't know if it is a cookie you want. And if you want to trust TM's evaluation and delete them, you have to do so one cumbersome cookie at a time.
This program is for people who don't need much of a firewall, so they can set their security on medium and hope for the best.
TM doesn't take phone calls, and only takes emails by webform, so if your problem doesn't fit into their mold, and if you can't attach a error file, you lose out - you can't even contact technical support.
I only renewed most of our company's TM subscriptions for another year 2 months ago, but have decided to can the renewals anyway, and pay for Zone Alarm as well, if thats any indication of how much I like this version. Wonder if I can sell them for a penny on ebay?

I want to like it, but cant on my pc :(
Pros: Fast, well organised, original, good protection
Cons: Wireless lan didnt work for me.
One thing, front end isnt as plush as it could have been, feels like im back on windows 98 on 640x480 or something, maybe do with flashing up a bit, but under the hood works great I m sure, shame firewall didnt work form me - doesnt mean it wont for you, and you'll get support.

Ignore the bad reviews, no AV program is better
Pros: Anti-bad everything in one package, plus a firewall
Cons: No 64-bit support, default settings need to be changed
Make no mistake, this is the best antivirus program, period. It isn't a resource hog when it scans, but is still plenty fast. It includes a host of stuff to keep you secure.
Now the bad. There is no 64-bit support and none coming (I asked). The default firewall settings let in some annoyances and keep out some good things. Default scanning settings are not comprehensive enough. Scheduled scans need to redone if you leave your PC running 24/7.
I dump Norton and never looked back. Use it for 1 year, and you'll wonder why you put up with the inferior Norton and McAfee.

TM-IS-2006 - Our fourth PC-Cillin
Pros: Very Capable Product
Cons: Technical Support - Lack of a Manual
Yep, NortBurn, McFatty and ZonePain don't deserve any more mention. Please note the differences of firewall/anti-virus programs compared with adwatch, grayware, malware programs - they are not the same animal.
PCC is quite a leap beyond the other products. But, as many products are, they really can not stand alone without support. We use PCC-2006 [on startup], LavaSoft AdAwareSEpro w/AdWatch [on startup], SpyBot S&D [non-resident] and a couple of other non-resident. Every product has its own idea as what is spyware, grayware, malware, etc. Ran a test. Went on the internet to many websites and let the computer fill with cookies and the such. Ran eight different programs to only FIND and LIST issues. AdAware and SpyBot came up as a pair that work well. What one didn't find the other did. On-line TrendMicro Housecall did the rest. Back to PCC, my experience is...
If you have issues with PCC, in the Program Files > Trend Micro > [program folder] is a tool called PCCTOOL.exe. Run this to uninstall the program - it also removes all registry entries. Reboot. Delete Program Files > Trend Micro folder and all its contents. Reboot. ** Now remove other firewall/anti-virus program left overs **. Turn off windows firewall if applicable. Re-install TM. Enable or disable proxy service as required. This may help many of you.
If your computer runs slow or installation problems - did your computer have a different firewall/anti-virus program previously installed? When uninstalled - was it completely removed. Not just by Add-Remove Programs - but really removed - ALL registry entries. This is very common occurance with customers computers brought in for maintenance and service - "off-the-shelf" computers most notably.
NEVER run two firewall and/or anti-virus programs simultaniously in resident memory. Never run two firewalls ever. Pick one anti-virus and one adware, grayware, malware program to run at startup. Keep the others non-resident and use at maintenance or trouble times. (note: enable the routers "block ping" feature if it has one)
TM-IS-2006 is a great product. The BASIC setup is good - but has holes. Wi-Fi Detection does not work consistanly - sometimes finds computers, routers and VoIP ATA's on your network - sometimes not. Overall it's a great idea that needs some tweaking from TM. If the firewall is enabled or disable - trusted sites will have NO effect until you enter the firewall exception list and tweak the NETBIOS settings. There is no manual, KB or FAQ for this - come on TM time to get with it. The default exception lists will continue to allow ANY computer access irregardless of Wi-Fi settings. These two features work together and one can over-ride the other - becareful if you are seriously narrowing and tweaking your network/PC security protection. You can lock out other a PC's, printers and routers accidently or you can allow in everything just a easily.
This product will run fine out of the box - on one computer or a network of computers. If you intend to tweak your network - don't rely on tech support that much. Learn about TCP/UDP, static IP addressing and get your LAN file and print sharing off of TCP. Then tweak TM-IS/PCC - she'll come through and her capabilities will be seen.
We are on our fourth 10-user license and are very pleased. How many of you noticed TM-IM/PCC found things NortBurn and McFatty missed and allowed in???
Happy Trojan Extermination - FireDoc

Excellent and miles ahead of Norton & Zone Alarm
Pros: Speedy, thourough, and secure
Cons: Anti Fraud a joke, Spam control lacking
I was a long time Norton user. I just switched to PC-cillin after trying both Norton NIS 2006 and Zone Alarm. The later 2 slowed my computer by 30% and I have lots of ram (2GB). Norton stopped Outlook Express from working, and corrupted my computer with many bugs. Zone Alarm slowed the computer to a crawl and put my internet connection almost back to dialup speed! Go Trend Micro, -FAST software,Fast Computing, Fast Internet, Virtually no bugs. They will bury Norton and Zone alarm at this rate. I'm putting it on all my computers and retiring Norton of any kind on my computers. It's junk!!!

Excellent! A great product that beats Norton & Mcafee
Pros: Stable, Fast, Secure, Full Featured, Easy to use, Secure!
Cons: Activation system on the web is a Hassle
Its everything you need in terms of PC Security when topped off with free solutions for antispyware. It isn't from a big brand like Norton or Mcafee but in this case thats a good thing. Norton is putting out big bloated crapware along with Mcafee. If you need to be productive and don't want to wait 15 minutes for your machine to boot then junk norton and buy this.

Pros: very fast scanning and doesn`t use too much resources
Cons: anti-spyware could be even better
I just love this software...
After those bad experiences with norton, mcafee and Bitdefender it was a relief to find something like this...
Reviews all say good things about this and they`re all true...
Antispyware needs work...

This is a very good program, but......
Pros: Good protection, easy to use, doesn't seem to slow my system
Cons: You can do all of this for free
I was using all free software before buying this. Adware, Ewido, SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard for spyware. AVG Antivirus free edition for virus scanning. Zone Alarm free edition for a firewall. I never had any problems while using these programs.
After installing PC-cillin and expecting big things, I was surprised by the results.
PC-cillin found no viruses, a good thing. PC-cillin found 2 cookies that were only there because I told Adware to leave them there. And it reported 1 Internet explorer toolbar that as far as I can tell isn't installed on my machine. I followed their extensive advice on un-installing this toolbar and couldn't find it.
My conclusion, this is a very good program that I could have saved my money on.

Pros: The product performed as adervitised
Cons: But it was IMPOSSIBLE to renew
My email went unanswered (for 3 weeks).
My calls were routed to people in Pakistan, who were only setup for technical help, not order fullfillment.
My complaints were ignored.
Buy this product if you only need a year of protection and don't plan on requiring ANY help.
Otherwise, steer clear of this one. The company's focus is on getting your $29.99, not on keeping you as a happy customer.

Excellent at consumer point of view.
Pros: Excellent at first glampse
Cons: Because Cnet cant be bothered reviewing this product, no-one knows what faults it might have.
Overall, I don't know how good the functions are compared to Mcafee's (They're was ahead of Nortons)But it definately looks like a step in the right direction. The non hogging of system resources and the compatability with Prior versions of Windows, along with an excellent price tag cheaper than that of the competition, should see this product wipe Norton of the market.
Unfortunately many people are still to narrow minded to leave Norton and respect them for whatever garbage they release. In any security situation Trend Micro or Mcafee are what you should turn to. Zone Alarm is overrated and annoying, and Norton is bloated rubbish.
Hurry Up CNET and do a proper review of this product!!
