you can check over in the Security forum about the best AV programs, but last i looked it was Kaspersky, NOD32, and Norton at the top, with a rather large gap before any of the others came in.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20177709 Mon, 17 Mar 2008 08:07:29 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20175465 anon : YW, Airwolf7 :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20175465 Sun, 16 Mar 2008 19:04:33 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20174300 Airwolf7 : Thanks for the info Jeno.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20174300 Sun, 16 Mar 2008 14:20:21 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20172836 anon : Zero-Knowledge Systems, Inc. changed its name to Radialpoint in 2005.

Who actually makes it?

I very much doubt that BellSouth/AT&T makes it so what company's technology is it built upon?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20171728 Sat, 15 Mar 2008 22:07:02 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20171624 mt1 : All I want is something free that will work. I did not know about the McAfee from AOL. I was actually thinking about AVG after McAfee expired. If I go with McAfee will I need to uninstall the paid version after it expires before I download the free version from AOL? I have been hesitant about the one that Bellsouth is offering but I just went ahead and added it to the order while I was upgrading to 6.0 and that way I would already have it on my account if I wanted to use it. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20171624 Sat, 15 Mar 2008 21:39:25 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20166614 anonyjane : I don't know about McAfee, but truth be told, AT&T does not train the helpdesk how to properly support the internet security (be prepared to call several times or be on the phone for awhile, unless you get lucky) and they are slow to fix flaws (mostly license related things). ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20166614 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 20:19:33 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20159619 anon : You can get FREE McAfee anti-virus and firewall protection by downloading it from AOL. It works great, and is far superior to the BellSouth offering.

You do have to sign up for a free AOL account if you don't already have one.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20159619 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 14:53:58 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20159334 mt1 : I will probably switch to the bellsouth security when the current one expires, I don't know how good it is or anything but I would rather use it than pay $60 a month to McAfee when it is included in the 6.0 service that I have. The way I look at it is if I was going to pay $60 for McAfee why not get the 6.0 speed and use the $60 a year that I spent on Mcafee and get the higher speed even though I probably do not need anything as fast as 6.0]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20159334 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 14:11:48 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20158719 karthwyne : if what you have is working, stay with it. when (or if) you do make this switch, uninstall the current stuff before installing the ATTIS.

McAfee came with my Dell computer and I think it has about 6 months left on it. I was planing to keep it until it expired then download Bellsouth. I just went ahead since I upgraded to 6.0 and added the Security suite while I was at it where I would not have to do it later.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20158627 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 12:18:32 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20157583 RogerADSL : What Software came with your Gateway?

By "provisioning" I mean the time it takes for them to link your security suite package to your username and password. That may be why you have not received the e-mail yet. You can always download it from the website, but if it has not yet been provisioned to your account you will not be able to activate it.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20156174 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 22:57:55 EDT Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20155939 anon : You can actually try to login here www.att.net/securitydownload using your primary email username and password.

The question is in the confirmation email I received I got this message (You will receive a separate e-mail message with instructions on how to download and install the AT&T Security product(s) included with your order for FastAccess DSL service.) I so far have not got a email with any instructions.

Has anybody installed the Internet Security Suite from Bellsouth and how did you get the link?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20155500 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 21:03:26 EDT
