    hi all

    could someone kindly recommend me internet security software, free or fee paying.

    I have always used norton but I want to try something different, I was thinking about Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, anyone know if its any use?
    A friend of mine highly recommends it!

    I also hear alot of talk about Microsoft Security Essiantials, any use?
    I'm using windows 7 professional, its a genuine version.

    thanks for ur help

    Dylan:)

    kaspersky is the best if you don't mind paying

    MSE is very good

    My recommendation : MBAM + Avira + Sunbelt

    Comodo is very good and free

    Microsoft Security Essentials

    Free and (obviously) integrates seamlessly with Windows.
