Forget about Trend, and use AVG free, it wont make your computer slow and you wont have to buy a new virus protection next year. My dad uses it and it works great. I use a different free one that came with my internet. They work just as good as the ones you buy.

all good except windows defender
Trend Internet Security 2007
Verify that Trend Micro Antivirus is a full version and not just a trial. It's an OK Antivirus software, I prefer Norton but it's fine.



Zone Alarm Pro, again, verify that it's a full version and not just a trial. Their free version is a great product and some of the features in the Pro are nice.



Spy Sweeper and Windows Defender have people who like them. Me personally I don't care for them.



My advice (take with a grain of salt) it to not use Internet Explorer, instead, switch to Firefox (free) and when you do go into the Privicy Settings and check all the boxes under clear private data on exit (includes cache, history, cookies, etc.). This way you will be protected. Also, get a free copy of Ad Adware by Lavasoft to keep your computer free from spyware and add ware.
