    Well, for less than €1.50 per computer per year I think it's worth it :)

    I have used in the past and have been very happy with it, it has gotten good reviews too.

    I have a subscription for this won't use it, got moneypak virus and the thing just switched off. Google it, had to replace the entire operating system to completely gett rid of the virus. It's the worst trojan out there but I don't kow which virus protection can stop it, only a malware removal tool which cost 80 could detect it, but still panda was so ineffective. Anyway rant over.

    Malwarebytes is good for removing the ransomwares. But sometimes you need to start off with running a scan outside of the Windows environment, Kaspersky offer a free rescue disk that you can download that will mount your Windows drive and detect possible rootkits that cannot be removed within Windows.
    Wouldn't be a fan of Panda but in all fairness I covered this point about zero day viruses the other day here, no antivirus can guarantee 100% protection against these exploits.

    Then just get avast. It's also free and ranks better than panda. Plus one of the language packs allows it to talk like a pirate
    :p
