5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product, September 20, 2005

Trend Micro Internet Security Suite is the best I used to this date. Configuring the program took awhile to figure out. Once I figured out how to block all the pop ups from the program (Virus Outbreak Warnings, the updates) it works perfectly in the backround for what I need it for. According to other websites, it is rated top of the line among users plus the editors compared to the top leading Internet Security Suites (Zone Alarm, Nortin, and McAfee.) I would recommend this product to everyone! Keep up the good work Trend Micro!

1.0 out of 5 stars DOES NOT SUPPORT MSN!!!!!!!!!!!!!, October 29, 2005

Okay, so I have my box this software came in all cut up to get the rebate, the rebate info is sent off,everything seems fine, when I discover that there is no anti-virus interface with MSN. I was playing with the URL filter and discovered that it did not work with MSN. At the time, not knowing that the program did not support MSN, I attempted to email tech, they sent 3 emails stating they were on the case but no answer. After 2 days, I called them and spoke with a customer service rep who told me about the MSN problem and directed me to the system requirements on page 1-6 of the owner's manual, and sure enough, MSN was not listed. I really think that systems not supported by certain software should be listed before buying. I also am not pleased with Trend's tech support.

I installed PC-Cillin and when I tried to do anything with the configuration interface, got the message "The Feature is still loading. Please, wait a moment and try again." I waited and waited. I rebooted, twice. Same message every time I tried to Scan or Update or View Logs, etc.

Trend Micro Tech Support said this is a known issue. They had me download a new installation package, uninstall, reinstall, etc. etc. Same problem. Waste of time.

Is it just me or have software vendors completely lost their pride?
