  • Norton PartitionMagic 8

    If you need to partition your live hard drive, Norton PartitionMagic 8 is still the application to beat.

  • Norton 360

    For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance. We recommend it over McAfee Total Protection and Microsoft Windows Live OneCare.

  • Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security 2009

    You can't beat the price. For a good, basic internet security suite, we recommend Trend Micro Internet Security 2009.

  • Norton Internet Security 2008

    While Symantec's protection is solid, the overall user experience within Norton Internet Security 2008 could be much, much better. Not all the features work together and use fewer system resources.

  • McAfee Internet Security Suite 2008

    McAfee Internet Security 2008 trounces Norton Internet Security 2008, offering a better designed product with more security tools.
