    Yes it is .All have free versions.
    From the 4 products only spybot offers a freeware ,unstriped down version which can be used in realtime.Only looks useful to me for IE users,that don't have other security program on their computer..MBAM,AD-Aware &SAS free versions can be used as on demand scanners only.

    I have a router firewall.

    On my Vista Only Norton 360 is running in real-time Nod32 is still install because i still have a key for it.

    Norton 360 include a firewall.

    Good, make sure you reset it's factory User id and psw to something unique. Most venders set them up as admin or password or something equally non secure.


    You don't want 2 av's on your pc period remove Nod32 as you need the Norton 360 FW


    Since this is the case use that FW and optimize the settings for it.

    To do that you may have to post questions on the other FW forum here.

    But read the FW stickies first so your questions are product specific not general ones about FW's.

    What about your HIPS? Does NOrton 360 give you one? You didn't mention that.

    Ahh, so you mean I can continue using it for free?

    Because the download page said "Free to try, $24.95 to buy"

    Yeah, was confused. Thanks for the clarity :)

    P.S I notice you use KeyScrambler. I wish keyscramber worked on Linux.
