@looda See that's the problem with using an Internet Security suite that doesn't meet your requirements. You switch and change before the day is up. It's better to use the layered approach, that way you can full utilise the products.

In Avast Internet Securty, you'd most probably only use the AV's real-time protection. Some may use the browser extensions whether they are aware of it or not. And I've never heard of anyone using the Manual Sandbox, Anti-Spam or Firewall. So what's the point of using a Suite? (Except for Bragging rights :rolleyes:)

Most are better of using the Free version, Avast Free AV without the bloat.

I simply agree with that, actually the so called "Internet security suite/Total security suite/Paranoid security suite etc" sounds like a joke and bloatware to me :D and some of them even sounds scam in my opinion :D
