Is an internet security all i need for my PC protection?

    usually internet security programs are suites, which means that they come with more than one application on them, kinda like MS Office. if this is the case for you, then you have virus, spyware, and internet protection, which should suffice.

    The only protection? Hardly. In fact, if you want real protection, don’t even bother with Norton Internet Security.

    Good security requires a multi-layered approach, and the least important layer by far is running some kind of anti-malware program (in fact, if you take care of all the other layers, you don’t even need an anti-malware program using up extra resources).

    In order of importance:

    1. Create and use almost exclusively a limited user account instead of the default administrator account Windows sets you up with

    2. Read up on social engineering and how to avoid it

    3. Don’t download illegal copies of software, music, or movies

    4. Set Windows updates to install automatically

    5. Make regular backups. If possible, back up your entire installation (using Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image)

    Maybe depends on what you do. If you download a lot of music using limewire and things like that, then no you can’t have enough protection. Norton Internet Security is one of the strongest programs out there. So you have good protection. You still need to use your head and be careful about where you go. You should use firefox. It will also help you avoid spyware. Many people use several security programs. They won’t have any better protection than you. Plus running all those programs can be a big lag on your computer. Get a backup scanner like SuperAntiSpyware, set it not to run at start up. Use it once a week just to be sure. I installed Norton Internet Security 2009 on 7 computers in the last 3 months and every users is very happy with it.
