Security software

Could anyone recommend the best type of security software that I could get for my laptop! Something that would be easy to remove if for any reason I needed to de-install it.

Thanks

    Look at the stickies or do a search in this forum
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Assuming the OP means protection from malware. They could also mean disk encryption. ;)

    Or go on ebay and buy a code from an authorised Kaspersky reseller for around £8.
    Make sure you use the 30 days free first from the above link.

    Problem can be that some of those codes are not legal on ebay . Some are commercial licences others 3 user licences . Kaspersky say they are aware of them and can choose to blacklist the keys if abused . Its a bit tricky Its a risk you have to take as it is my last licence was an £8 from ebay . I just did the WHSMITH trick and got a licence for £10 on Monday ( seem to have gone up today ) from Kaspersky themselves .

    You just got to be carefull .
    I can give links to the relevant topics on ebay sellers and blacklisted keys on the Kaspersky Forum . Basic advice from their is do not buy digital downloads and dont buy from China in regard to kaspersky products .
