I use Norton Internet Security since it not only takes care of viruses, malware, adaware, and my firewall but it also is easy to use. I have never had a problem with it and it is easy to configure and does a good job. Right after the install it can be annoying since it will ask you what you want to do for anything that connects to the internet but within a day or two you will never see it again.

I use Zone Alarm Pro, McAfee, Windows, Norton. There is no hacker that is going to be able to get on to my computer. That is for sure.

I'm using windows built-in firewall and Zone Alarm. But I have also a firewall on my router. Anyway I think it doesen't work so good. It stopped only one hacking attempt, but I got more of them not stopped.

Meh, if it was up to me I'd still be using Zone Alarm, but my mom installed Norton on my computer, which cost like 60-80 dollars so no use trying to talk her into removing it, plus she loooves having parental controls..yeah.
But eh, its not THAT bad, but the stupid annoying auto scans are...annoying, and lag my computer, but if I turn them off my mom gets pissed..so yeah. |

I use a windows built-in firewall, I can't really be asked to get a newer firewall. I could get a new one but then again, windows firewall has always been loyal to me and always done it's job so I'll keep it.

ZoneAlarm is the best there is, but blackIce it's the second best, wich by the way, it's not there.

I currently use norton personal firewall, I used to use zonealarm but updaiting it every few weeks got to be a pain.

I am using Zone Alarm and so far I'm happy with it, have not tried any other type though hence I cannot make any comparison but I am still open with other type though |
