Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, 1-Desktop, 1 year Subscription (PC)

Excellent Internet Security Software, 2008-10-30
Having read the reviews and done some research I decided to buy. I uninstalled my previous security software - a very well known brand, also the name of an old motorcycle(!) - and installed this one without any hassle (about 20 mins once it had downloaded all the updates it needed). Immediately my pc ran faster than before, AND it detected quite a few Trojans that weren't previously detected ! A few days on and my pc continues to run so much faster than before, and with update checks every time I switch on it gives me confidence that I've bought an excellent piece of Software, for LESS THAN HALF the price of renewing the subscription to the previous software.

Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003 - Licence and media - 1 user - OEM - CD - Win

Full of exciting, useful features. , 2007-05-26
Has all the features expected from MS for a product of this caliber and runs like a champ. Has added in the ability of sharing information with other users over the network.
I can say that Office 2003 Professional is one of the best office application out today.
Bottom Line: The best of the best in office applications...

Happy customer, 2008-11-01
I'm not big user of office and mainly use it for typing letters and reading documents from work. However compared to office 2003 i find it more user friendly and visually looks a lot better. It does the job and am happy which is why 5/5 -

I don't understand why the low marks that outlook 2007 is not included when if you have windows vista it comes built in windows mail ( which is same as outlook express ) and far better email client then outlook 2007.

Before buying from amazon i search the web to see if i could find better price and by far amazon is lowest by at least 20-30pounds. Super-save delivery took about 4days -

Also had registry issues due to previous office causing problems after uninstall. Microsoft technical support was first class and resolved the issue within minutes.

Norton Internet Security 2009 - 1 User 3 Computers (PC)

Slimmer of the year?, 2008-11-10
They claim to have done away with years of bloat and seem to be right. I've avoided Norton for several years now but am delighted with the 2009 version. It is light on use of system resources and runs quickly and efficiently where it used to be sluggish and slow my system right down. With 2009, my boot time hardly increased after installation; it is much faster than with ZoneAlarm Security Suite. RAM use seems to be down to less than 30MB. Scans only run when the machine is idle - excellent.

As well as the usual AV and Firewall modules, etc, you get a browser plug-in for IE and FF to detect phishing sites and similar nasties. You also get an "identity safe" for protection against key-loggers - this enables you to send your details over the web without typing them every time.

Negatives? Well, the price is on the high side. And the interface is perhaps a little busy, but it's perfectly usable and functional.

Overall, I'm really glad I switched, and will very likely stick with Norton unless it starts putting on weight again.

the best virus protection on the market, 2008-10-23
This high quality virus protection software really is the best available to buy at the minute. It is much better than the likes of Norton, mcafee etc which seem to be more widelly available. I purchased this product on amazon for approx £30 with a 3person license usage, therefore costing £10 per pc, however its available on ebuyer.com for £20 at the minute.

Norton Antivirus 2009 - 1 User 3 Computers, Upgrade Edition (PC)

hats off, at last!!, 2008-09-22
after an unsatisfactory trial with Kaspersky I decided on a simple antivirus, this is good, very good, its quiet, the pc runs quickly and smoothly and it even monitors my wireless network. Happy to buy this. Worth a serious look if you don't need a full suite. Well done it's taken a few years mind you but I think they have cracked it at Symantec! Ill be watching very closely if the virus and spyware is better, 2008 suite installed on my new laptop missed a trojan here and there so well see if this is better, but certainly from a running point of view it's spot on!

Office 2008 for Mac, Home and Student Edition (Mac)

• Produkt Version: 2008

Ideal for creating windows compatible documents..., 2008-11-11
I am by no means a computer genius but talking from a novice point of view I have to say that after purchasing this product 3 months ago I have been perfectly happy with it. I previously had the office 2004 for MAC which admittedly was perhaps a little more user friendly and generally straight forward, but decided to upgrade to the new Office 2008 when I purchased a new iMac.

I generally only use Word and Excel, occasionally Powerpoint, and they serve the purpose that they are there for. After a little bit of getting used to, I've figured most things out, although creating web pages with the Word is not as simple as it was with 2004, and would happily recommend it to a friend. I am currently using it with Leopard operating system.

If you simply want to be able to create Windows compatible documents then this pack should give you everything you need. I use mine for writing word documents and creating spreadsheets and transferring these between my Windows based PC at work and my iMac at home. For this everything serves the purpose well.

Norton Internet Security 2009 - 1 User 3 Computers, Upgrade Edition (PC)

Does what it says on the tin, 2008-10-24
I've been using Norton products for a very long time, and they have never let me down. On older machines, Norton is likely to slow them down, but newer ones seem more than able to deal with it. I have seen virtually no slow down in processing speed.
It is a bit tricky getting the second and third PC protected if you have bought the product online, as you have to wind our through the menus to find that option to download it.
I find that Norton will start a system scan to check for viruses etc every so often, and this can slow things down a little. You do have the option to pause, stop or ignore the scan and you can always start one whenever you wish.
Bottom line: simple to download, install and run; and, your system is protected.
