    Found PC-Cillin 2006 d/l version on http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E1681413471SF for 19.99 !

    Cheapest I've seen it otherwise is 24.97 @ Sam's Club and also on the Microsoft security partners try/buy page for the Vista beta.


    19.99, I had to snatch one at that price, with 2007 just around the corner..

    I don't think that there are a lot of PC-Cillin users here.
    Not saying it's a bad program.

    At Fry's Electronics you can get the full boxed PC-Cillin Internet Security 2006 3 User after rebates for just the amount of sales tax on the initial price (before rebates).
    http://shop4.outpost.com/{6 hW8Z40sUq5hj UjQDuhw**.node3}/product/4611548

    Fry's Electronics ad in my local newspaper (Daily News) has pricing/rebates a little different than Fry's on-line:
    Fry's Price $89.99
    Less $35 Instant Savings
    Less $30 Mail-in Rebate valid from 2006-09-06 to 2006-09-14
    Less $25.00 Competitive Upgrade Rebate valid from 2006-03-21 to 2006-12-31
    Final Cost: The local Sales Tax amount on the $89.99.

    Probably giving PC-Cillin Internet Security 2006 due to PC-Cillin Internet Security 2007 beta is already out, and competition of others major security vendors coming out with their own new/updated versions of security suites.

    PC-Cillin is "good", but IMHO does not provide the same level of protection as the "top tier" products such as Kav, NOD32, F-Secure, BitDefender, etc.

    FYI/FWIW:
    PC World's Top Security Suites

    PC World had the tests conducted by AV-Test.org

    I've been using PC-cillin Internet Security since 2003 and so far, Ive had no problems with the program. I've had no problems with virus and malware, either. When a new version is released, I wait until the next year, say, March when the previous version is offered by the box at a discounted rate. After purchase, I have the option to use the license to continue using the old version or upgrade to the newest version of PC-cillin.
