User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Generic
I had Norton 2009 installed on my computer. I was having some trouble with it and decided to order a different brand of internet security software. I purchased Panda. I installed it and compared to Norton it’s very generic. The full system scans literally took “forever”, plus I didn’t feel the layout was very user friendly when it came to configuring what features you wanted to turn on and off. There was no option for a quick scan so you had to choose the full scan which took about 45 min to an hour. Also, once you uninstall you cannot reinstall and keep your remaining subscription days, the disk is no longer valid. I ended up going back to Norton, got my situation resolved and was able to reinstall my Norton product with no problems. You can buy Norton for up to 3 pc’s on Amazon for 39.99 which is a good deal. The same product on the Norton website is about 79.99. I am used to Norton because I have used it for so long so I may be partial, but if I ever wanted to switch again it would not be for Panda. It may be cheap to buy but it’s also cheap to use. I didn’t have it on long enough to judge whether or not it is a good internet security product so it’s just my opinion that it’s not user friendly for me.

5 Stars excellent product
This is an excellent product. We have used Norton in the past but decided to go with something else. Panda is an excellent choice. You can find it much cheaper here on Amazon.com. Very pleased!
5 Stars This “No-Techie” Loves Panda!
I’m not a “techie”, so I can’t give any info in that area, but here’s what I do know: This is my 2nd year for using Panda Internet Security and it works great for my desktop PC and laptop. The 2009 version seems to be a little more user-friendly over 2008; the layout of the screens in the window look better and they seem to be easier to navigate. Installation is a breeze (you don’t have to uninstall the old version of Panda). Automatic updates (every time you go online) are unobtrusive. Alert notifications (for every little thing!) can be user-defined so you don’t have to be bothered with the pop-ups unless you choose to…you can just let it do it’s thing in the background. It can seal your system in a steel cocoon, a gauze curtain, or somewhere in between, according to your preferences. It doesn’t bog my system down like some of the others I’ve tried. The spam filter is self-learning, so at first you really need to monitor that folder to teach it what you want to let through. There is free 24 hr tech support, but I’ve never needed it. You can upgrade to the newer version through the Panda website when your 1 year subscription expires…but you can buy it a lot cheaper at other places (like Amazon). And best of all, I haven’t been invaded by any of those horrible things lurking around on the internet!!!
