When I get a new computer with Vista, which security suite?

Question

...would be best to use? I need a new computer soon. Also, HP or Dell or what? I'm not techie, so nothing too extreme - thanks.

Answer 1

If you want a security suite, everything in one package, I recommend ZoneAlarm Security Suite. I use it, and it has everything you need in a world class package. I also recommend F-Secure Security Suite. It is also complete. Both suites are easy to use. I assume you are not looking for free, because the free programmes, while good, are not complete suites. Check with your internet provider. Many of them provide security suites at no charge with the internet subscription, and they are usually Norton, ZoneAlarm, FSecure, etc. It could save you a few bucks. If you want free, you need more than one programme. For antivirus, you need Antivir, for firewall, you need ZoneAlarm, and for spyware, you need Spybot Search and Destroy, as well as AdAware.

Answer 2

you can get a more powerful antivirus to scan for virus, adware and spyware .

i recommand you to try CA Internet Security Suite. It provides comprehensive protection against viruses, hackers, identity thieves, spyware, spam and other online threats that can jeopardize your privacy, your data, and your PC's performance.

you can get a more detailed introduction about CA Internet Security software.
