Hey guys, just wondering, what do people think are the best security software out there. Atm I use the ZoneAlarm Security Suite and it seems to catch all viruses and most spyware.
But anyone got a better one? Maybe something less resource eating?
Kind Regards

Well i never would use a subscription based AV ever since my first experiance with Norton.

But I decided to give Nod a try using thier free trial and I saw that the small footprint and low resource usage it had, not to mention unintusive I was bought and have used it since.
It updates without freezing my internet connection (dial-up)
And usually does so when i first log on and not in the middle of a online skirmish like all the others.
Since it does check for updates on a daily basis this means the downloads are extremly small if there are any. And the regular updates show they are on top of things.

Nod is the only security software I run now, never even use a firewall anymore and also running Firefox have yet to get anything at all nasty in my pc Wink

NOD32 is excellent, i bought a 2 year subscription for both of my PC's a few months ago.

For the past 5 years I have used and am still using McAfee online virus protection. Runs in the back ground, auto updates when ever I go online and always asks if I would like to install the update first. Never had a problem with renewal or payment, never had a virus since I started with them.
