You may have used Norton internet security or other internet security programs in the past. You are concerned about your own computers well being. How do you know which internet security software is the best? This article will give you some insight on Norton internet security 2010 vs the competition.

Norton Internet Security 2010 vs Competition Installation

Norton installs very fast and smoothly; the pack includes a very light installation which can have a 6 year old child install it within minutes. A truly hassle free installation.

AVG has a slightly bulky installation which may cause some problems to users who are not very computer-oriented. Avid computer users should not have a problem. Kaspersky’s installation on the other hand is very slow and suffers from glitches which only someone with a great deal of computer knowledge will get by smoothly.

Norton Internet Security 2010 vs Competition Interface

McAfee’s interface is quite easy to use with a few panels for your simple scans, schedules and removal of viruses. AVG’s screen is somewhat more sophisticated than McAfee’s but still quite user friendly. If however you wish to disable the scan or active shield you may have some difficulties finding it. Norton’s interface is a sophisticated one with a lot of options. Don’t be discouraged though because they menus are very easy to follow.

Norton Internet Security 2010 vs Competition Other

Norton’s firewall is a heavy duty one which will keep users safe from external threats. It very easy to use, a simple click of the button and you are ready to go. Kaspersky on the other hand has a wretched firewall that is basically of no use. You are never sure if a program is trying to access the internet or not. This also makes the computer vulnerable to external threats.

Overall McAfee and AVG are very close to Norton Internet Security 2010, where Kaspersky falls short. However, if you are looking for an all-in-one tool which will keep you safe from online risks and other internet problems, Norton is the clear choice.
