There are some great Free Security Suite you should checkout before you decide to fork out your hard earned money.
For firewall protection, I use Sygate. It’s a fantastic freeware Firewall that is quite robust and does a great job of protecting your outbound traffic. It’s no longer available on mainstream sites, but if you google around hard enough, you should be able to find it.
For Anti Virus protection, the best freeware is Avira Antivir. Antivir provides you will both a scanner and real time anti-virus guard that protects you when you are surfing the internet.
The best free Anti-trojan is Ewido. If you do things like download mp3s using Limewire or Kazaa. You’ll probably want the paid version for extra protection.
For anti-spyware/adware/scumware. Try a combination spybot and ad-aware. And if you’re using Windows XP try windows defender beta 2. All three are free.
And for protection against Rootkits. Try F-Secure Blacklight.
This may seem a lot of downloading, but your operating system will thank you for it.
