Review by Dave Greenbaum

Trend Micro is one of the top security programs out there and it’s a constant battle among Norton, McAfee and Trend Micro. The 2010 version, similar to Norton, shows lots of improvement. Faster and less intrusive. Also, I like the fact you can download the trial and then activate with the code from the box.

A few annoyances about the program are the fact that it forces you to activate the program–which some consider a privacy violation. Additionally, the interface is confusing with constant upsells to purchase other options. For those that want another option besides Norton, this is a good one.
