Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 is an Anti-Virus program that includes a personal firewall and licenses for 3 PC's. It's got a bunch of tools included. It's free after a $50 rebate. I've been using Kaspersky for years. It's good, reliable, and you will not even notice it's running, even during a game of Battlefield. I just ordered it for my sister and her kids.

They only offer Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2015 not the internet security suite.
Sorry even for 3 PC's that is not worth an extra $45.

Normally that is a decent price but we are talking $5 deals here/. i :) i

$5 is a good price and one I will pay. Otherwise I just use free software which works just fine. I could not even tell you the last time I ever had a virus.
Malware I have got but that is easily cleaned by free tools such as maleware bytes.

Unsure which one to get now... i :) i

I might grab Webroot. It gets great reviews.

Also it offers 3 PC protection for that $5. That is a best value.

Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 is FREE after rebate. That's less than $5 which is why I thought it was worth mentioning. It's not just for multiple PCs but it includes additional tools.

I can only recommend. People can make their own decisions.

I grabbed a copy of Webroot to fight it out with my NOD32. For $5 apiece, I just bought both, and I'll switch if one turns out to be problematic. Webroot is supposed to be really good at fighting off malicious web-stuff, and careless surfing is where I run into the most problems. It's also very, VERY light on resources.

I WON'T RUN THEM BOTH AT THE SAME TIME!

Kaspersky is very good at knowing when you're in-game and takes up little resources at that time. Also consistently ranks highly year-in, year out.

Rebates suck sweaty Boba Fett dick.

Yes they do. If it's $20 or less, I only manage to bother half of the time. If it's more I make myself do it. It can become even more of a time sink when the rebate website isn't working and you end up wasting time on the phone. Websites in theory are supposed to make rebates easier but in practice they are meant to frustrate people out of following through with it. We hates them. We curses them.
