This review is from: Panda Platinum Internet Security (CD-ROM)

I have been in the computer buissness for many years. I have spent considerable time battling virus's and spyware. Panda brings all these problems to a screetching halt. I hear my co-workers complaning about what their internet security programs have let through, and I simply tell them to get panda, set it and forget it. You will not go wrong with this product!!!!
