    NAV 2004 is still a good choice for first timers, but its minor improvements means NAV 2003 users need not upgrade.

  • McAfee VirusScan 7.0: Clean up your act

    McAfee VirusScan 7.0 is a top-notch virus slayer for first-time users, but unless you use Outlook Express or Eudora, VirusScan 6.0 users won't need to upgrade.

    Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7 continues to outshine its competition with its ease of use combined with thorough antivirus protection.

  • Norton Internet Security 2008
