It always baffles me, when people choose to *pay* for an antivirus for home use. I mean a combination of free software is good enough to meet most people's requirements....If it's in a business environment I'd rather understand.
Are the *little extra's* worth it? Especially when they can be achieved with other free tools.
Especially when you choose to go with layered protection, like a free antivirus, an on-demand scanner, system monitor (like WinPatrol), Sandboxie [sandboxing], Web of Trust/Link scanners for browsers, a free firewall [comodo, private firewall], tune-up utilities (like CCleaner) [why need a payware antivirus for that] etc etc..
