The Truth on Internet Security Software


No matter what you are doing on the web you always need some type of internet security software. There are so many choices to choose from and people are upset with paying that yearly subscription for three computers. Technology is growing rapidly today and some people don’t have just computers; tablets, macs, and smartphones are used for all sorts online activities. Let’s be honest, in this topic, you get what you pay for.

Some things that are free are your best friends, antivirus/security software is not that cut and dry. There's the free stuff, where you don’t get internet security protection and then there are the paid ones where you get the option to have internet security for up to five devices. When looking at this you need to understand a few things: all free software protect you from viruses and the majority do not protect you from the major threats.

I urge all my friends (this includes you), to get Norton 360 or Norton 360 Multidevice. Multidevice allows you for up to five devices for up to one year. It is the best software I have ever used and do not regret it. It has made some major improvements since 2008 and is my choice and recommendations without a doubt. Best protection from security threats such as phising (false web pages), banking protection and spyware threats. If you must go with the free antivirus programs that do not protect you from the security threats, read up here on some reviews. But honestly, go with Norton 360. It tunes up your computer, has real-time antivirus and internet security protection and is the best I have ever used… EVER!

  1. I completely agree. I have Norton and, despite the expensive yearly subscription, I wouldn't think to ever get rid of it. It is on top of security threats, which is really important.

    1. Expensive? Not at all. I have seen it go on sale between $40-$50. That is about 25 large coffees from Tim Hortons. Another thing is when you get a virus, some places charge about $100 to remove viruses, spyware and threats. That is just removal. If that doesn't work, it can be about $150 plus because they need to delete everything and start fresh. At Staples, it is $169 for that service and they include Norton 360 Multidevice and guarantee it to be virus free for one year. Surprised? I'm not because Norton works.

    1. Norton is always on sale. Check your flyers and I am sure you will find Norton 360 somewhere on sale.
