Review by Nate

There are two things I want most from security software on my PC: (1) it should work, keeping my computer safe and protected from a range of security threats, including viruses and other forms of attack; (2) it should be mostly unobtrusive, so that I don’t even really notice it’s there, and just do what I need to do with confidence.

This one does the first thing pretty well, as far as I can tell. It doesn’t do the second. It noticeably slows down my system, and it seems to demand my attention far more than I’d like. What’s worse is it’s not easy to turn off or silence when I need it to.

It was fairly easy to install, and I liked that when I put in the disc and started to install it, it gave me the option to download the latest version, instead of downloading the old version from the disc and needing to update later.

After using it for a few weeks I decided to go ahead and uninstall it. I find it to be more hassle than it’s worth.
