trend micro versus McAfee verus Norton, My wife has to have a dell laptop, so which Security suite would you techies reccomend?


Research suggests all about equal with Trend Micro using fewer resources.

Anyone know any dell discount codes?
 
Here is another Dell coupon link. It might have some different codes or it could be more of the same: Dell Coupons
 
well, I had a stupid malware thing on my computer and I ran every virus/spyware program there was (i had AVG, but ended up having to buy McAfee and Trend Micro and Norton among a couple others and try way to many free ones) and the only one that would catch it was Trend Micro. All the others after scan would say no infections found. Only Trend Micro found it. Of course it was the last on I had bought because I hadn't really heard of it before. It was like the malware was programed to sneak around most virus scans..... The darn thing ended up costing me almost $100 worth of AntiVirus programs....
 
Do you guys think I'm safe from viruses?

Neither. AVG is hands down the best out there.

NOD32 - been using it for years. Has only gotten cheaper.

Also use AVG on my laptop and my wife's system. Solid and free.

I'd recommend either.
