I know I've asked about this sort of thing before. I'm really bored of these so-called Internet security packages that are free of charge, they all seem to have their problems and are resource hungry.

Is it worthwhile paying for a package like Kaspersky Internet Security. I'm not tight for £40 per year, if its worthwhile. In actual fact, at the moment it's not for me, I'm tidying up Beccy's sisters laptop and she really wants some sort of protection as her kids use it and she's worried about them clicking on shit that has viruses and malware in. She had Norton, as many new laptops do, which I hate and has now expired.

So, is it worthwhile? Are there free ones that are as good? I'm guessing that once you pay for one of these packages they are free of annoying adverts and are fully featured etc?
