I may not shimmy like your sister Kate, but Aunt Tilly looks ok to me: I
can have her in three places at the same time and she doesn't cost much.
What more do you want?

$49/year buys you what? According to this page [1], you get:

- Protection Plus, anti-spyware, anti-virus, anti-phishing, a 2-way
firewall
- Performance Plus: defrag, archive unused files, automated patches
- Backup and Restore
- 24/7 Support

I suppose this gives you an all-in-one solution, trading convenience by
saving you the effort at picking best-of-breed tools and then
installing, maintaining and configuring them. For some of my clients who
have little or no IT support, this might be a good idea. This might work
pretty well for Aunt Tilly. How does it stack up against other suites,
like Norton or Symantec?
