Its amazing how Norton went from being the most hated AV to being one of the most respected in a few years.
I was a user of Norton in the early 2000s and I can not tell you how bad it was.  | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Self-built on 31/1/11

strictly and pedantically speaking, eset nod32 is not a security suite, but 'merely' an antivirus product.
a security suite normally includes a firewall, antispam etc.
eset do offer 'eset smart security 4' which includes these features...but as already noted, this product is not included in the review. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number mickey megabyte 1234
