This has been mentioned before and PN were going to look at it but I wondered if there were any moves afoot to offer an Internet Security Suite as an optional extra (at a good price)?

I suppose it depends who your actual ISP is. Mine is Madasafish and they actually offer Bullguard Security Suite for the princely sum of £2.45 pm
Not sure how Bullguard fares up tho.

Thank you sticky - interesting that Madasafish have the facility and we Force9/Plusnetters don't. Over to PN!

Computer Shopper this month rated Macafee and Kaspersky as best for protection and the Microsoft one as worst. So no surprises there then.
