Consumer Feedbacks And Complaints

Actual Customer Feedback:

"...I seemed to have some conflicts which weren't easily identified. I had to do some research to see how other people solved the same install problems (involving something called AVG) and after a couple crashes, and four re-boots, it was finally good to go... It allows me to filter out certain content on the web and watch over my personal information, too. So far I like what it's doing in filtering out what my son is looking at on YouTube. That alone, is worth the $40 in my book. It seems pretty consistent, too, which differs from other control software I've tried that is more hit-or-miss on what it filters..."

"I've been trying this offer for over 3 months now and like it quite alot.

I'm just using the Anti-virus and anti-spyware with the various intelliguard options and it runs great.

The updates are daily at the time I specified and they're probably the fastest updates of any program I've used. "
Actual user comment from DSLReport.com

Great AV, great firewall (stealthing of ports is a beautiful feature against hackers), magnificent anti-spyware (based on the world-acclaimed Spyware Doctor)..."
