    Good Points: Let you pay monthly


    Bad Points: Very difficult to get someone to sort put problems. They never answerd emails. I had 2 viruses get past their firewall


    General comments: I have hadF-Secure Anti-Virus 2008 for Windows for 2 years as part of deal with TalkTalk broadband . I have had lots of problems with start up speed and virus scanning. I didnt realise that the problem was F-Secure till recently. I had to clear it and relode it and still had problems. After numerous phone calls I have cancelled my contract with F-Secure

    I have used this product for some time now and having used Norton, McAfee, AVG and Kaspersky in the past, I have found F-Secure to be the easiest to use and the most effective.

I also found the scan and updates that consistently pop up every time you start your computer to be very annoying. F-Secure updates and scans silently in the background so I have been able to install it an ...

    Licence expires February of next year but may dump it and go back to AVG which I found to be very reliable compared to F Secure.

    Could not recommend this product to others.
