Total Security ist nach meinen Erfahrungen das mithin beste Schutzprogramm.

I had totalav in the beginning & working great but for 2 months could not sign in or contact service. I had to go over & over to help many times. It seemed I had to email totalav many times before I could get help. I do not plan to renew after my year is up. I lost coverage for over 2 months & did not use my new laptop. I had to use my older laptop it has vipre that protects my laptop very good.
Guter Schutz

I like Total AV, however I don't like that everything is separate when purchasing.
