P/C Protection

[whiskeryron]

I am running W7 & Firefox. I have Kaspersky Pure protection & also Superantispyware & Malwarebytes Antimalware ( both freeware ) which I scan with weekly. When the Kaspersky becomes due for renewal do I actually need to renew it because I have the other two?

Neither of the others includes antivirus or firewall, so if you get rid of Kaspersky, you will need to install an alternative. Personally, I would stick with Kaspersky (in fact, I use it myself), but if you are looking for a free alternative, then I recommend Microsoft Security Essentials.

Thanks very much rojash.

Just out of interest, what benefits are there in using the paid-for Kaspersky over the free MS Security Essentials? I'm guessing there must be some.......
