What is the most recommended software?

Posted by Joe

The following post in our Reader Question series is an actual user submitted question. To maintain the integrity of the original question, we do not edit or change reader questions in any way.

Q: What is the most recommended software?

A: Our top rated Internet security software package is Identity Guard with ZoneAlarm. Identity Guard is different than any of of the other products we have reviewed because it includes not just a full Internet security software suite to protect your PC, but also three bureau credit report monitoring and other features to help protect your identity. Identity Guard is priced differently than other security software suites as well. After a free 30 day trial you will be charged $14.99 per month. However, the ZoneAlarm security software is yours to keep whether or not you decide to become a paying member of Identity Guard (keep in mind that you won't receive any of the updated virus definitions if you decide to cancel your Identity Guard membership).

If you are looking for a more traditional Internet security software option, we suggest McAfee. McAfee offers an excellent set of tools to protect your PC and is confident enough in its service that it offers a 30-day money back guarantee. If you are unsatisfied with the software for any reason they will refund your money, no questions asked. Additionally, McAfee is currently 50% off standard price for a limited time, so it is also a great deal at just $39.95 per year.

How much does Identity Guard with ZoneAlarm cost?

Posted by Joe

The following post in our Reader Question series is an actual user submitted question. To maintain the integrity of the original question, we do not edit or change reader questions in any way.

Q: Please tell me the cost of this service [Identity Guard ZoneAlarm] as can not find it listed in your ad.

A: Identity Guard with ZoneAlarm is priced slightly differently than the other Internet security software services we reviewed. Rather than paying an annual fee subscribers pay $14.99 per month which includes all of the features detailed above. The cost of this product is slightly higher than the other services we reviewed at about $180 per year, but it is actually quite a deal when you consider that you are essentially receiving three services- credit report monitoring, identity theft protection and Internet security software- for the same price that you would pay if you purchased Identity Guard as a standalone product. Plus, even if you choose to cancel your Identity Guard subscription within the 30 day free trial period you can keep the ZoneAlarm software (although you wouldn't receive any of the virus and spyware definitions which keep your computer safe against new threats), your 3-bureau credit report and score, and your public records report. All this alone would cost over $100 and they're willing to give it to you for free just to try the product.
