OK, the next week, we've got sales, lotsa sales. I've already bit on the Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, and there's more to come! I need antivirus, I'm looking for deals on Usenet indexers, Usenet providers, and maybe VPN providers.

My webroot AV will expire in about a week. I haven't found a good, up-to-date AV review roundup that includes Webroot, but it's very light in resources, very fast, and reviewed well last year. Still, I should find a backup AV choice in case I can't get Webroot at a price I like.


WHAT ARE YOU GUYS LOOKING FOR? I'll keep an eye out, maybe set up price alerts where I can.


Don't forget to post any good deals you run across.

Webroot is fine man. Honestly there is no "best antivurus" out there. No software catches everything anyway.
I am still looking to renew my webroot again. Want a 3 pack.

They're running a sale on the Webroot site itself. I've heard that it's going down even cheaper on Cyber Monday, but I'm betting we can do better 3rd party if we keep our eyes peeled.
