Reviews

  • Genji: Days of the Blade

    While this action adventure game flexes a bit of the PlayStation 3's graphical muscle with its mythical Japanese scenery, its rather shallow, derivative gameplay makes it difficult to recommend.

  • CA Antivirus 2007

    CA Antivirus 2007 provides a good antivirus engine, adequately protecting your desktop from basic malicious viruses and worms, despite a few interface glitches.

  • AVG Anti-Virus 7.5 Professional Single Edition

    AVG Anti-Virus 7.5 Professional Single Edition is a pretty good, no-frills virus scanner. But you'll need to purchase antispyware software for complete malware protection.

  • McAfee Total Protection 2007

    McAfee Total Protection 2007 does what it says on the label -- it protects your PC from all sorts of nasty attacks, albeit at a fairly high cost to your system performance, especially on older PCs.

    Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6 is light and fast and consistently wins detection awards against the competition; it's worthy of our Editors' Choice designation.

  • McAfee Wireless Protection

    McAfee Wireless Protection makes more sense as part of the McAfee Total Protection suite than as a stand-alone application.

  • Trend Micro Anti-Spyware 3

    Trend Micro Anti-Spyware 3 is a solid and easy-to-use choice for your antispyware protection.

  • Norton AntiVirus 2005

    Norton adds worm protection to Norton AntiVirus 2005, but for the price, the company should have added a full firewall instead.
