Kaspersky Internet Security Suite vs NOD32, Outpost Pro 4, and SpySweeper

[imported_Salamander]

I currently am using NOD 32 AV, Outpost Pro 4 firewall, and SpySweeper. While I know Kaspersky AV is good (comparable to NOD 32), I don't know about the rest of the Kaspersky suite. I am considering switching the above softwares to Kaspersky - I know generally it's better to get individual software rather than a suite, but it seems like the suites are getting better. Does anyone out there have experience with these various software combos and suite options?

The most effective overall suite I've used was Zonealarm Security suite & Panda Internet Security was pretty good too, but both their AV programs leave somthing to be desired. Right now I have Kaspersky Internet security v6.0 & while the AV is top-notch, the anti spyware could be better & the "Anti-hacker" firewall, while very effective is a pain to configure.

The best bet in my opinion if cost isn't an object is to go with Kaspersky AV, Zone Alarm Pro firewall & Counterspy anti-spyware... best bet for a suite goes to Zonealarm by a small margin over Panda. at least out of the ones I've tried.


Edit: Note that NOD32 is a very good AV program & Spysweeper is the most effective spyware detection program available... I'm not familar with Outpost Pro 4. (I prefer Counterspy because its much lighter on system resources)
