Reviews

HP Photosmart D7460

The HP Photosmart D7460 offers compelling features -- including a touch screen -- for home users, but the competition offers better print quality.
Norton 360

For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance.
Norton Internet Security 2007

Norton Internet Security 2007 makes significant gains over last year, including cutting-edge rootkit and behavioural monitoring features found nowhere else, but the overall package could be serious overkill for the average desktop owner.
Mozilla Firefox 2

Mozilla Firefox 2 is a winner, beating Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 on security, features, and overall cool factor and deserving our Editors' Choice award.
Internet Explorer 7

IE 7 was Microsoft's one chance to leapfrog ahead of the competition, but the company has only barely caught sight of the current front-runners. For more features and greater security, switch to Mozilla Firefox.
Firefox 2 RC1

Firefox 2 RC1 isn't meant for public consumption, but this early look demonstrates some cool new features in the next release of Firefox.
Norton Confidential beta

While Norton Confidential beta from Symantec aims to protect your online transactions, and its antisphishing toolbar compares favourably to Netcraft's own offering, we found the Norton package to be overly large, including many other Symantec applets that seem unnecessary.
Windows Live OneCare

Windows Live OneCare is the first of many managed online security services to debut this year.
