Do you need additional protection like the internet security version, or does this one handle all threats?

Hi, I still use a different program for malware, "Malwarebyte". Right now, Amazon has a better deal on the Internet Security version which includes a few more bells and whistles. Lifetime for $39.99. Here's the link, http://www.amazon.com/VIPRE-Internet-Security-2014-PC/dp/B00FFZXQLK/ref=pd_cp_sw_0 Good Luck

I also purchased the 3 users version but have so far only used it on one PC. I also had Norton prior to getting ESET, and it was totally useless - I had pop-ups all over the place. You can and should delete Norton from your system as I understand having two security systems on one PC would de-stablize it. ESET is great, I have not had any problem since installing it several months ago. They also have an excellent live person help line. If you have problem deleting Norton, they can probably walk you through the process.

No extra software that really is important. Norton antivirus comes with it but it is a limited time free. Everything in the specs for hardware.

I'll suggest you get rid of all you write of with the exception of IE. Leave Trend Miro as well and seek out Microsoft Security Essentials. Install Firefox as default but keep IE on board for access to MS updates. If you need an Office Suite loaded to your net-book, seek Open Office.org or consider using the cloud apps available from Google, Windows Live or Adobe

Yes, and including the kids, we run Norton on 5 computers. On my main 2 we also run a Malware (MalwareBytes) program for back-up security. Norton has always been reliable, but last year I tried the anti-virus instead of the 360 and my computer got real sick, so I went back to the Internet security after I got cleaned and haven't had any real problems since.

I haven't had any problems yet. I was used to windows vista so the way its organized takes some getting use to. I noticed my Chrome is not working right but the Internet icon is fine. It claims to have its own malware protection built in. No problems there so far. Hope this was helpful.

My investigation before hand leaned me toward the older version , citing problems with new version. My only question is why my computer always asks to allow network access. That feels a little creepy. Bit otherwise, it's worked well

I also use Firefox and Kaspersky. I am on a Windows PC with Windows 7. With any Antivirus doesn't detect everything. There is still Spyware, Malware and other bad things out there that Kaspersky doesn't find. It is impossible to keep up with all of the "Bad People" out there. We're talking for every 1 Person working at Kaspersky there might be 50 "Bad People" writing Bad stuff to infect Your Computer. I think its a good idea to have something external to help.

This is not an internet security product. It it a data security product. It's a USB data key that needs a passcode before it will operate. It has nothing to do with the Internet.

Internet Security 2013 offers more protection compare to antivirus 2013.Internet Security 2013 offers you advanced identity protection, two- way fire wall, Anti-Spam and Parental- Control. But of course the best of all is Kaspersky Pure 2.0 which offers even greater protection that the one's mentioned above if you do not mind to pay more.

Got 3 years ago with XP, upgraded to Win 7 Pro I would not use XP if connecting to the internet. No security updates anymore.

Yes - that is how I am using it - I love the little bugger - however if what you are working on needs security - this is not the answer. Hope this helps.

The only difference is 360 backs up some files and has a cleaning program that removes junk files periodically. The internet security has all the important stuff to keep your computer healthy and without viruses etc. I wouldn't use the extra parts of 360 anyway and that is why I always get internet security. Only get 360 if you use the other parts.

I've purchased a few of these netbooks and they generally have some (Norton or Trend Security so far) trial addition of anti virus software installed. The first thing I do before connecting to the internet is remove whichever program is installed. Then connect to the internet and download AVG Free. Its a great program and I haven't had any issues with either XP or Windows 7.

Yes, being an internet capable player, it does have the Cinavia protection.

That's up to you but I don't think so. Anti-virus can be obtained free from Microsoft, but a good firewall has to be purchased. The Microsoft firewall is not very intuitive to those who don't know how to set 'rules' of packet passage. In addition, most of the REALLY dangerous intrusion is not virus but things like inserted software to take control of your laptop ... things like rootkits, remote desktop software, unauthorized tunneling and lurking whenever you log onto the computer. These steal your identity, passwords, and use your CPU power to conduct their own surfing while you surf with what they leave for you to use. They can also store their illegal files on your computer should law enforcement come calling for a pedophile, bank intrusion, corporate secrets or music thieves. I would definitely invest in firewall/malware protection over virus if I couldn't have both. But again, with free Microsoft virus protection, you won't have to have just AVG's internet protection. Others may feel differently, but that's my take on it.
