    Cause all the mentioned software are paid software and S&D is free.

    Nothing I utilize made any of those lists. Of course those softwares are all of comparable natures and price points. While with the exception of one software, my choices for system protection are geared more towards the enterprise end of the spectrum.

    My Choices:

    Firewall= Symantec Client Firewall
    Antivirus= Symantec Corporate Antivirus
    Antispyware= Counterspy

    I found it odd that the NIS2005 suite was not covered so far as firewalls. Essentially only a bloated version of the Norton brand personal firewall, however it's additions would have easily pushed it higher among the rankings.

    Counterspy was not covered in the anti-spyware category. Not even the GiantSoftware brand as well. How could they conduct such comparison tests without even mentioning these well-known antispyware goliaths? That category is just out-right "flawed", IMO.

    These are not well done ratings. I noticed alot of things that do come with certain programs and says it doesnt come with it. WHO MADE THIS? They are wrong.
