I prefer McAfee as it has been my virus scanner for as long as I own a computer.

I try not to use software firewalls on my computers - they get in the way of sharing folders, and sharing printers.

You should always have a hardware firewall at the front of the network. That way you do not need a software firewall.

When I travel and bring my laptop, and use a public internet connection such as at a hotel, I like Zonealarm. It is just easy to use and easy to configure.

I use Norton Internet Security and Virus Scanner, and it works great for me. But I don't know how it compares to other security software, because I've only used Norton.

Afee is the only Antivirus program that we tested that includes a fully functioning Firewall in its base Antivirus program. Some Antivirus programs include a one-way Firewall

My vote is for Mcafee. I haven't use the other one so i can't give my review about it.

I would say its comparing apple with oranges, Zone Alarm's is a proven firewall software but its antispyware etc are not comparable to the lights of top ones like Mcafee

Hi!!

I have Avira AntiVir and I am pretty satisfy with it... :-)

I love AVG AntiVirus - as it suits my needs perfectly - and free of charge :)
Else I'm running C.o.m.o.d.o - and for a free version it's highly advanced as far as I've experienced. I used Norton at first, but because of the vast amount of resources it claims - it severely hampered the speed of my computer at times! AVG though - just perfect :)

I've used both of them.
Mcafee has Antivirus and firewall while ZoneAlarm are just firewall. I'm not aware though if ZoneAlarm now has Antivirus too. :)

In this case they are incomparable.

I had used MCafee for 3 years then change my anti virus, now a days i am using AVAST anti virus. I think, it is the best anti virus software. you any try it, and let us know
