Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 - PC

By Stephen Patrick

Will this keep you virus free?

Simple to use, low resource needs

Deeper settings are awkward to use

This is a powerful package that won't sap your resources. We found it worked well and the asking price is more than reasonable

Adobe Photoshop Elements 6

Can this improve on Apple's iPhoto?

Adobe Bridge, editing features, Kodak tie-in

Elements window insists on being full screen, web galleries dated

Compared to iPhoto you get more image management, editing features, and control, but whether it's £70 more useful is debatable

Apple Aperture 2

Apple Aperture 2.0

By Stephen Patrick

Does the second instalment impress?

Plenty of new features, less power hungry

Minimal correction features

This is a major upgrade of Aperture and with over 100 new features and a completely refreshed back-end it's worth investing in

McAfee Total Protection 2008

Improved protection, Faster, you won't find any annoying pop-ups getting in the way of your enjoyment

Interface isn't as simplified as Norton 360

A vast improvement over previous versions, this is a faster, leaner package that should give Norton 360 a run for its money

Lose something? This might help you find it

Fast and reliable

Iolo System Shield 3

Iolo System Shield 3 - PC

By Stephen Patrick

Will this offer you the protection you need?

Three licenses for price of one, not too system heavy

Separate tools in system tray, won't work with other tools

It's a solid tool that keeps out online threats but it isn't easy enough to sway you away from your current favourite
