Norton Internet Security 2008 remains PC Magazine's Editors' Choice security suite. The unobtrusive firewall is tough as nails, and it actively identifies and blocks exploits and other intrusions. NIS 2008 did a super job of cleaning up malware in testing, and its cleanup is significantly more thorough than most. The new Identity Safe manages your passwords and personal information effectively. And if you have a problem, help is built right in.

Symantec's Norton Internet Security 2008 suite offers solid security protection and features, including the best behavior-based defense against unknown threats.

Norton Internet Security 2008 is at the head of the pack. Not only does it offer robust antivirus and spyware protection, a firewall, parental controls (with an optional free download), and more, but its superior quick scans and intuitive interface make this suite stand out.

“Your 2009 product is absolutely incredible and in my opinion, the BEST security software on the market! It runs circles around other software that I’ve tried over the years: McAfee, Kaspersky, AVG, Avast, Webroot, PC Tools and Trend Micro just don’t stand a chance.”

“Excellent work! New versions are now even faster and more customizable. Installation and configuration takes about a minute, unbelievable! Norton AntiVirus/Norton Internet Security and Norton Protection Center are now completely integrated. User interface is easy to understand and convenient…”

“First impression is really great. Lightning fast installation…”
