  • Despite a relatively thin set of features, PC Tools Internet Security 2010 is a very strong performer overall. If you're looking for an effective, easy-to-use suite, PC Tools' newest offering is well worth your consideration....

  • Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus 2010 is an impressive standalone app, and it's at the heart of PC Tool's Security suite. Not every component measures up to Spyware Doctor, but, overall, the suite is worth a look....

  • Full range of detection and removal tools, Effective behavioural detection engine ThreatFire
  • PC Tools' speed performance was unimpressive, and could be faster, The interface is usable at the top level, but drilling down to moreadvanced settings can be confusing and cluttered, Users hoping for a fully functional trial should look elsewhere
  • We're big fans of PC Tools Internet Security's ThreatFire component, and the overall toolset that PC Tools provides is robust, but the suite could be both faster and easier to use. Editors’ rating: 7/10
