Time with product: 2 Months

Strengths: Effective. Won't slow your computer down. Easy to install and operate.

Weaknesses: At first, annoying little pop-ups telling you the program is updating. Simple to deactivate.

Summary: I prefer this program to Norton's or McAfee's. It's just as effective but easier to navigate than the pricier others. It won't slow down the computer on boot like Norton's. It was easy to install and operate.

Strengths: Easy to install, allows for free upgrade to 2007 version.

Weaknesses: Generates alot of warnings on which have to be allowed access, these slow down as time goes on

Summary: A good virus scan& firewall. The 2006 edition I installed on one PC. And I upgraded to the 2007 version on another PC.Both work about the same. ( The 2007 ver. seems to have more messages to respond to.) I would say this is easier software to administer than Norton/Symantic. A good alternative to others which have alot of bells and whistles which you don't need. And have too many "big brother" programs. Allows you to tailor to you needs.

Time with product: 1 Year

Strengths: Easy Installation. Excellent Internet Security. Excellent Anti Virus and Anti Spam

Weaknesses: Frequent updates are annoying, but tolerable.

Summary: Excellent product. I have used Trend before this purchase and will continue to use Trend PC-Cillin Internet Security. Prior to switching to Trend, I used Norton for years. Over the past few years, Norton became so large that it drained computer resources to run.Trend does not consume excessive computer resources. It is easy to install and operate. It is very good at picking up spam mail also.
