For those seeking a full blown Internet security suite, McAfee Internet Security offers traditional antivirus, firewall and antispyware complete with spam and phishing protection as well as backup utilities. McAfee's superb detection rates are near legendary.

3) BitDefender Professional Edition

4) Platinum Internet Security

Panda Software's Platinum Internet Security combines antivirus, firewall, and spam filtering along with its highly touted TruPrevent Technology. Both AV-Test.org and ICSA Labs have tested the TruPrevent claims of behavioral, non-signature detection of new malware and found the claims to be true. (TruPrevent Technology can also be purchased separately as an add-on to antivirus protection from other vendors).
