    Downloading this software is a nightmare. The instructions are awful. You have no idea if anything is happening. I tried 3 times. I called customer support and they left me on hold for almost an hour. I finally hung up.

    This Security software came free with my new laptop from Best Buy. We found concerns online that this program wouldn't "play nice" with our installed McAfee antivirus, so we opted to not use this product.

      We're sorry to hear that you chose to use a different security program, TunnelSnakesRule. Best practices recommend using only 1 security program per computer; using more than that can weaken the protection. In the world of computer security, more is not better. trend-micro

    Bad Customer Service

    The program itself does nothing to remove malicious software from your PS. When you contact customer support to ask for help all they try to do is sell you more expensive packages and it´s overall a bad product.

      Hi Mauricio. We're sorry to hear about your frustrating experience. However, there is good news. Because you purchased the Trend Micro Internet Security 3-Device/1-Year Subscription, you should be eligible for technical support from the Best Buy Geek Squad. This is included with your subscription and should not require any additional costs. Give them a call and see if they are able to help you out. I hope that helps you!trend-micro

    This came for free bundled with another product, but I really don't know what to use it for. My computer already has built-in firewall. Installing something just increases the risk for something else to break.

Trend Micro Internet Security can augment your existing security with features like our Firewall Booster and Privacy Scanner, which ensures that your privacy settings on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Linkedin are not sending your personal information to unexpected parties. There are many reasons to try it out. We hope you do!trend-micro

    Geek squad says this does not protect from Trojans and hacking and need to pay $400 to fully protect computer Guess this is useless and consumers should be told that when buying computers

      It doesn't sound like that Geek Squad agent was very familiar with Trend Micro Internet Security, Micket. Trend Micro is the best security program at protecting customers on the market right now, including protection from Trojans and hacking. Your Trend Micro Internet Security subscription is far from 'useless.' trend-micro

      Trend Micro Security is a great addition to Apple products, ChicagoMike. While Apple does offer some protection for the device itself, they don't always have features that protect your personal information the way a true security company – like Trend Micro – protects your information. trend-micro

      Hi bjudy5. Trend Micro Internet Security is a pretty quiet program that protects your computer without bothering you. If there are sites and programs that you want to run that Trend Micro is blocking, you can add them to the whitelist within the program.trend-micro

      Mac products are now as much a target for spyware and hackers as PCs, Revmkpb. Their goal is to get information off you iPhone, and Trend Micro's goal is to keep your personal information protected. It's definitely worth checking out. trend-micro
