Hi all.

Yeah, just wondering what to go with, a fair few options about, had Norton in the past which seemed fine but a real resource hog, now currently have zonealarm security suite, which has firewall, antivirus, anti-spywear etc.

Obviously I want the best protection on all fronts without too much hassle or resource hogging if possible...what do you all think?

Also after any suggestions on software to keep an eye on my network, just to make sure nobody is trying to access it, wirelessly or otherwise..any ideas on this as well?

Thanks guys :)

Cheers, Craig

Hi,

ok, thanks for the suggestion, I have a linksys router that has a built in firewall setup, but thought it was perhaps safer to have security on the laptop as well especially with it being wireless?

Yeah, you are right by the way, zonealarm can be a little annoying at times :(

Any other suggestions?

Also anything to monitor networks in general, especially the wireless network just to see if anyone is trying to gain access?

Cheers, Craig
