My Friend want to make his computer fullproof from virus
so he decided to buy original security from symantec
So he's asking from me
Pls tell me Which & How many software should he buys from symantec

1) Symantec Antivirus 10 Corporate
2) Symantec Norton Antivirus 2007
3) Norton Internet Security 2007
4) Norton Personal Firewall 2007
5) Norton Confidential
6) Norton System Works
7) Norton Partition Magic
8) Norton GoBack
9) Norton Save & Restore
10) Norton Ghost
11) Symantec PcAnywhere 12.0

I think Only No. 1, No. 2, No 4 or No. 6 is capable alone to protect a PC
Pls help tell me which & How many are the necessary software to secure a PC

imho to make your PC Virus/trojan Proof, just get these two=>

==>Kaspersky Internet Security 6
==>ZoneAlarm Pro Firewall

i've been using this combo for around 5 months. till date No virus/trojan could enter my PC.
Kaspersky blocks/treats the virus'es & ZoneAlarm gives control over the processes/apps. for web access & blocks the crap websites.

main part -> KIS6 & ZA Pro consume a total of 40-60MB only.

yes Nortan AV alone will take 40+ MB of RAM.

 

[satyamy]

I m using Symantec Antivirus its using just 20MB RAM n running fine in my PIV & PIII also

actually the reason for symantec is
whr my frnd is working they have given him discount coupons for buying product frm symantec
so he wants to buy symantec product from that list i have given
Pls tell the best one from the list

Symantec Corporate 10 out of this list..

 

[preshit.net]

Symantec Corporate 10 out of this list..

I second that..

Been using that since 3 years now !

 

[s18000rpm]

@satyamy, if your friend buys the NIS, then have a look here ->Free Download: Norton Internet Security Add-on Pack to download it.

 

[alsiladka]

Would not risk and ruin my system by installing norton on it even if provided for free!!!

 

[Kiran.dks]

If he really needs only Norton, I recommend:
Norton Internet Security 2007 in PC security segment, BUT otherwise, Kaspersky Internet Security is better choice.

 

[rahul_becks23]

if u r goin legit , then i recommend Trend Micro Suite .

 

[kalpik]

People have misconception.. Norton and Symantec Corporate are two different products! Norton is crap.. But Symantec is definately an A+ grade product

 

[anandk]

of the ones mentioned by u ; norton security suite.
else kis or zass.
u dont need to use kis + za/fw.

 

[rahul_becks23]

kis or zass ..............
kis + za/fw..............???

 

[Tech Geek]

if you want to know only from the list
go for the 2,3 ones

 

[rahul_becks23]

!!!???<.,.???

 

[satyamy]

Is Norton Personal Firewall useful or is it just waste
y do u guys hate norton afterall its a good antivirus for high profile systems

firewall is useless
use normal firewall's
we hate because
it slows the pc down
eats up all the resources

Add this too
=>& it does'nt do its work properly (virus detection...), its basically a KaamChor
