Apparently it's very good. I'll be trying it later this evening.
(I want to focus on playing BF2 at the moment.)

The first 2 months are free and i've read nothing but praise about it.

    I still prefer the PC-Cillin Security Suite. When I'm using free utilities, I use ZoneAlarm Firewall and AVG Antivirus.

    Don't go for it. If you want a strong security suite, get:

    AntiVirus: NOD32. Simply the best antivirus out there. Don't go to "security experts" for your info on how well AVs work. Go to the people who actually spend their time breaking and getting around that security. Everyone is having a hard time getting around NOD32. Every other antivirus is like cake.

    Firewall: ZoneAlarm. If you don't want a hardware firewall, or if you want program control in addition to a hardware firewall, definitely go for this one. Some people have problems with it, but when it works (Which is most of the time), it works VERY well.

    AntiSpyware: Use the following tools for a spyware-free PC: Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware Personal, Microsoft AntiSpyware, Javacools SpywareBlaster. (That last one is meant to keep spyware from ever getting on your PC at all.)

    AntiTrojan: The Cleaner, hands down. Very thorough.

    If you're willing to spend some money, definitely go with my choice for the AV and AT.

    Of all the software I've ever used, AVG works the best IMO. I just use windows firewall because ZA annoys me

    It's okay. Better than Norton and McAfee, but not as good as NOD32. Same with AVG, though AVG is not much better than Norton and McAfee. :/

    ZoneAlarm can be slighlty annoying at first when you don't have all of your programs set up with ZA, but after that its pretty much smooth sailing.

    Personally, i love bitdefender. i have tried nod32 and others but bitdefender is just so easy to use and it looks good too.
