Talk Talk Supersafe v Norton?

Hi,

Just switched my broadband/tv package to Talk Talk and I've been offered their online security software (anti-virus etc) as a free add-on.

However I already have Norton for my laptop and I've just bought a new Samsung phone, which, I'm guessing (could be wrong!), already has virus protection built in.

Is it worth cancelling Norton and switching to Supersafe for my devices?

Any thoughts welcome!

Thanks

Den
