I wanted to get norton internet security or mcafee. My computer (windows 7) came with webroot for 6 months and notron for 30 days. nortron seemed to always alert me on everything and webroot only has like one time I feel like norton is more trust worthy. I also tried to install mcafee but I couldn’t because ut didn’t want to install in windows 7.
So do you guys think webroot is a good protector?
Chosen Answer:
Yes, my parents use it (webroot spysweeper) and they have never gotten a virus since. Norton 360 is also supposed to be very good. BUT, there are different types of viruses, and thus different types of protection. For instance, if you have adware protection and you get a malware virus, your security will do you no good. So I think you may want to look into Norton 360. You could also call Staples or Best Buy for more advice.

yes its good. but also try MSE. (microsoft security essensial)
when i tried norton it was horrible…..a trojan virus attached itself to it and then when i cleaned it up with zonealarm it got rid of somewhere around 2000 trojans no joke.
I’m pretty sure that Webroot anti-virus with spysweeper is good because I was watching this tech guy on YouTube and he recommended Webroot anti-virus with spysweeper.
