A few disappointing extras make this an unappetising upsell from the standard ZoneAlarm suite

Breathtakingly lightweight, but detection rates could be better.

A new behavioural analysis module only adds to AVG’s capabilities, although it isn’t the most elegant marriage

A credible contender, but F-Secure Internet Security 2009 is neither the lightest nor the most effective security suite for your PC

Comprehensive, competent and configurable protection at a good price. This is the best security suite out there

We've been impressed with Norton 360 - security for those who want something simple but effective. We're also impressed with the changes in Norton Internet Security 2009. So how does Norton 360 version 3.0 stack up?

A suite with some nice features but slow startup times made us disappointed with ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 2009

A powerful and capable suite with some excellent features, although it isn’t the easiest to use, nor the cheapest around.

A dreadful performer in almost every regard.

Lighter than ever, but its all-round performance isn’t quite first class.

A comprehensive package, but not the most usable or effective

See why this relatively unknown, but simple, efficient and affordable package holds its own against the likes of AVG, Norton, Kaspersky and McAfee.

Our former champion loses its crown but remains a strong contender.

A fierce protector when it comes to web threats, but merely middling elsewhere

A do-it-all package that detects an exceptional range of malware

A well-featured package with some unusual tricks that falls just short of a first-rate performance.

A simple package whose two detection engines ensure great malware detection, but it fails to inspire in other areas.

A broad and likeable package, but needs better malware detection.

The massive network of pages compromised by the Gumblar botnet are now being used to spread malware, according to researchers.
