Norton Internet Security 2008 remains top-notch for security suites. Its virus/spyware scan scored very well on tests, and it cleans up more thoroughly than most. The firewall is tough and includes intrusion protection. And the new Identity Safe does a great job of managing personal info and passwords. The antispam is a throwaway, as is parental control—luckily, many of us can do without those.

Virus/spyware scans are accurate and thorough. Top-quality, nonintrusive firewall. New Identity Safe manages personal info and passwords. Built-in help system includes live chat.
