CA Internet Security Suite Plus 2012

Pros
This suite has some useful extra tools, including incremental backup, a data migration tool, parental controls and automatic USB drive scanning.

Cons
Major antivirus testing agencies have not tested this internet security suite recently, and it does not have a fullscreen mode.

The Verdict

Though we like that CA Internet Security Suite Plus is a complete security suite, we would like to see them pass more third-party tests running Windows 7.
