"Worst Security Suite, bar none"
on by zeefallerPros Fast installation
Cons This software will slow your pc to almost unusable. It also changes the file extensions of your downloads and attachments to .efw which is not recognized by the system. There is nothing user friendly about this software. Don't waste your money.
Summary I got CA security suite for free with Road Runner. It slowed my machine down so badly it was almost unusable. I'd actually rather spend money on something like Norton, than use this software for free. Absolutely useless and not user friendly at all.

"Valium for Your Computer-Tortise your computer now!"
on by trevtassiePros Nothing, it's rubbish
Cons This program will glue up your computer throughly. I was a long time fan of CA ISS, but not anymore. Slows start up, stuffs up[ playing music and video files, hard to install, it's got nothing. If you have ISS 2008, stay with it, DO NOT UPGRADE!
Summary Crap, Crap, Crap, Junk, Junk, Junk!!!!!

"Not worth it, even if it's free"
on by wsekoPros I don't have anything good to say once it locked up my PC.
Cons Drawbacks, too many to mention, see my summary below.
Summary I got this program and updates free from my internet provider TimeWarner/Roadrunner, but I believe it has a conflict with the wireless router program Network Magic of which it seems to not be resolvable. The last update that I just got 2011 version just locked up my internet access constantly so much that I had to do a hard shutdown with the power switch and then restart to SYSTEM RESTORE to uninstall it to an earlier date. Avoid this program, period.
