Norton Internet Security has all the Security functions that Norton 360 and
Norton AntiVirus have. Norton Internet Security is slightly cheaper in
comparison with Norton 360 and significantly cheaper than Norton AntiVirus.
However, Norton Internet Security does not have Norton 360's Password Management
features or basic Disk Utilities.
If you are looking for an AntiVirus and AntiSpam solution that also lets you
safely browse the Internet, you might prefer Norton Internet Security over
Norton 360. And if you are looking for AntiVirus and AntiSpam features alone,
Norton AntiVirus has everything you want and costs significantly lesser than
Norton Internet Security too.

to be confident that your PC is
WellOiled - the products and their brief capabilities being;
-
Norton SystemWorks for all offline optimizations regularly required for
Computers (Registry and Hard Disk optimization). These are optimizations that
need to be run periodically - say, once a week
-

The second category of Norton products is for online protection, Passwords
Management, protection from Phishing and infected websites, secure Auto-fill of
