Hi Guys,
I am in India. I would like to buy an Internet Security Software. Can you recommend me the cheap and best one out of your experience? The Software should consume more space,I mean, the System should not become slow on using the Software.
I suggest Kaspersky Internet Security Suite.
Yep! avast! is the best solution when it comes to free version.
1st of all, wrong section
2nd, use Norton Internet Security 2007 if u have more then 512 MB RAM & want an idiot proof Internet security solution
Else use Kaspersky internet security, u will need to learn & configure it a bit, but it lighter then NIS 2007 on system resources
Is it necessary to use AV or IS !!! i rely on windows firewall and defender
I don't think it is necessary to use any antivirus. They are all same. Norton the worst, hogs resources. If at all you want to use, use some light one like avast or bit defender and rely more on firewall [kerio etc].
Gamers can not afford to use any antivirus. After all instead of securing, it returns troubles than anything usefull.
Use some disk imaging utility like norton ghost to back up ur OS and restore as and when you feel some virus might have sneeked through ur firewall. After all restoration takes only 5-10 min.
COMODO firewall, AVG Antivirus. u r safe. Both free.
Wrong Section>> Move It
Kaspersky
Kaspersky is better than any other anvirus/firewal software. Moreover it's light on resource. Even cnet says it's the best as of now.

Disable Windows Firewall... it sucks.
Disable Windows Firewall in Windows XP SP2

Before you disable your firewall, you must disconnect your computer from all networks, including the Internet. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Run, type Firewall.cpl, and then click OK.
2. On the General tab, click Off (not recommended), and then click OK.
Disable Internet Connection Firewall in Windows XP or Windows XP SP1

.I would definitely say Kaspersky is better than most of them out there,if you are ready to buy that is.
