The software was very easy to install. Since it just uses an activation code, no CD/DVD drive is required, which makes it ideal for mobile devices like tablets or smartphones. Once I activated it on my main computer, I was able to e-mail the other devices that needed protection.
The constant Norton pop-ups were a little bit irritating, but I think a lot of that can be controlled in your settings (things like the Norton toolbar, etc.

I have to admit that installation made me a little nervous. As soon as I put in the disk, it told me that in order to proceed it needed to uninstall some programs, but it doesn’t list what programs it wants to un-install. I have a wide variety of video/photo editing software installed on my computer, and I didn’t want to risk it uninstalling a program that I really like and use on a regular basis.

When I originally purchased my laptop it came with a free trial of Norton Anti-virus, so it’s probably the virus protection software that I’m most familiar with. I like that I don’t have to worry about my computer being protected. It performs its regular scans without much intervention on my part. It seems to do a pretty good job. I haven’t had any problems with viruses yet!

We do have a touch screen computer (an HP Envy) , so I liked that the software was optimized to use with touch. I’ve been using Pinnacle’s video editing software for the last few years. I think that the software is pretty user friendly. I’m not especially technical, but I was able to get the software figured out fairly easily. I thought the additional music/sound editing software was a helpful addition.

I recently tried this game out with my 2.5 year old on an airplane trip. He absolutely loved it. There were tons of fun clips from Grover 2.0. Some of the games were over his head, but they were perfect for my four-year-old. The games were fun and educational and featured my boys favorite Sesame Street characters. I don’t think they even realized that they were learning while they were playing.

Stopped Virus Melt virus when McAfee didn’t! We have three computers and are running three different virus software packages, so I’ve based my review on comparing the three products. On the one with PC Tools Internet Security 2009, we’re using Vista and haven’t had any problems with intrusions or slowing since installing PC Tools. We installed Spyware Doctor on our systems and ran the scan over McAfee and Zone Alarm. It caught more intrusions than McAfee.

I have used this software for the past four years and just purchased the most recent version 2013. It stops all viruses, spyware and threats.
The installation is simple and no real maintenance is required to keep your system running fast and safe. Other products have slowed our systems down which is why I always return to Titanium!

We are running Vista with Internet Explorer 8 on our PC. This software disabled Internet Explorer when installed on the first installation, on the second installation and again on the third installation. Finally, it took on the fourth installation. I’m not tech savy but I do know enough to know that it was a waste of time and my conclusion is a lack of confidence in this AVG Internet Security product.

Corel PaintShop Photo Express 2010 is very basic program that wasn’t what I thought it was. It doesn’t provide the user with enough tools to edit photos the way I had hoped.

This product is amazing. It is simple to load without any bugs and seems to block everything to date. I’ve had it installed for about 4 months and have no complaints whatsoever. We have tried many antivirus software packages and this really, along with ZoneAlarm, seems to be the best.
