Trend Micro Internet Security 2008 3-User [OLD VERSION] Reviews

Not enough user control. This thing slows down start up, interferes with Internet surfing, stops legitimate programs from starting and is generally a pain to live with. It does seem to be good at protection Nagging warnings when you shut down services.

Pros:. 4) Blockage of unwanted phishing. I have been using Trend Micro for 2 years and have been happy with the result (actually I am using 2007 on my PCs). 1) Long scanning time for Viruses (it takes four hours to scan my computer). I used to use Zone Alarm but I was having trouble installing the full software updates and I had to put the old version on since it seemed to work (I had this trouble on two PCs). Cons:. 3) Scanning of Virus/Spyware.

1) Cost. So for my 2 PCs, it was $100 and the Trend Micro engine blocks much more Spyware and Tracking Cookies. Even with the Cons, the product is much better than some of competition (Zone Alarm, Norton). Also, Zone Alarm was costly making single license copy for each machine. 2) Frequent scanning - sometimes I notice the program scanning for virus more than once a week. 2) Frequent updates.

Tried others, but this is the one works. User of this program since they came on the market. many years ago and NEVER had a single virus.

In fact, I seriously doubt one can achieve the advertised speed of wireless. Be very worried if your security software doesn't warn you about changes should you add software on a regular basis or if you do a lot of browsing. If your not communicating PC to PC over a LAN, you can set TM to recognize specific PC's to minimize any latency. If communication is slow, there is a setting that needs to be changed. Compared with some other well known brands, I have difficulty understanding why so many have said it's slow.

The PC publications we find on the magazine racks have a habit of overrating products. I've been using Trend Micro on personal hardware since 2005. The perfect security software doesn't exist. 5) Trend Micro tech support is not great. 2) Performance: I have yet to find a security program (or a combination of programs) that does not slow down performance. TM has saved me more than once - even from some commercial software. That creates false expectations. At lot depends on the specific task being performed.

Last comment. Some yes and some no. 6) Believe it or not, I am not a techie or geek. IMHO, email is not significantly affected.

Let's address some of the complaints:. 4) At least one person indicated PC to PC communication is slow. If you have ever had a seriously infected PC, that protection is worth a lot. Unless you turn off a lot of the features in those products, they can be much slower. Some are faster, but they may not be as comprehensive.

The 2008 version is much faster than the 2007 version. If speed and security are really important, your LAN (or PC to PC connection) should be hardwired. But my experience was nothing like what other have described. It is horrible, and it causes problems with lots of software.

1) Is it hard to install. I run some heavy duty software, and change software far more frequently than the average user. I have 2 fairly high-end PC's (new in 2007) and an excellent T-61 Lenovo laptop. I am taking a shot at the vast majority of vendors. (Yes, I use multiple firewall solutions simultaneously: at the host level, the LAN level and the PC level. I wonder if the advertising in those magazines has any effect on how editors rate products. I am very paranoid about software that makes changes to the registry or other settings I made to Windows.

The sad news is that is true of many hardware and software vendors. I have been using the 2008 version since 8/2007. That means it is doing it's job. When products fail to meet expectations, people can be very disappointed. Front line techs rarely have a clue; they have scripts. Set at higher levels of security, the affect can be noticeable, but TM is extremely effective is identifying dangerous sites, BEFORE you actually load the pages. It is the nature of the beast. I had an early version of Internet Security and installed it over the 2007 version on the pre SP1 Vista OS (one PC uses the 64-bit version).

No disagreement. After reading many of the comments, in my very humble opinion I am guessing there may be some user influence behind the problems discussed. Updates and comprehensive scans are slow. I'm forced to deal with technology as part of part of my professional life. FY: make sure you turn off Vista's protection before you install TM Internet Security - especially the Windows firewall. I have a gigabit LAN with 3 PC's, 2 Mac's, a server, a NAS unit, and dedicated equipment for data backups. Does 2008 slow down your machine more than other similar packages.

I am not defending TM. I have a difficult time believing a Symantec or McAfee user would find Trend Micro slow. I am NOT a fan of Vista. 3) Some complain TM is intrusive. Web browsing can be depending on your degree of risk tolerance. Some have a direct impact on communications between PC's on a LAN behind a firewall.

(I kept getting a message I had exceeded to number of licenses I had purchased). And keep them off. The one problem I did have was that I needed to get new product keys for each PC I was upgrading. In general, tech support throughout the industry has been deteriorating for years. There are a lot of advanced settings available with TM. With a wireless solution, you will never achieve the speed of CAT 5e or CAT 6 cable connections.

One learns things through osmosis and making lots of mistakes.

However, in my experience none of these products, including Trend Micro, are perfect. You also get conflicts with other software. I've used Trend Micro for 3 years and found it to be a decent anti-malware product. One thing I didn't like about TM 2008 is that it before installation it made me uninstall auxiliary protection products like SpywareBlaster and AVG Antispywarebut I was able to reinstall some of them later. TM provides free chat and phone support, which is unusual. You need to supplement them with products like NoScript and SiteAdvisor. It's easy to use and has had good ratings from consumer organizations.
