• Microsoft Windows XP SP2

  We recommend installing Windows XP SP2 but only after Microsoft has had a few weeks to work out the kinks.

• XP networking: A little new, a little improved

  There are positive changes to XP's networking, but will they benefit your business?

• PC Tools Internet Security 2010

  We're big fans of PC Tools Internet Security's ThreatFire component, and the overall toolset that PC Tools provides is robust, but the suite could be both faster and easier to use.

• The best endpoint security suite is...

  Wondering which endpoint security suite keeps your clients the most protected? Enex TestLab racks them all up and puts them through their paces.

• ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 2009

  ZoneAlarm Internet Security 2009 provides top-notch security protection that is light on system resources, allowing you to work unencumbered.

• Kaspersky Internet Security 2009

  Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 provides adequate protection, but the program itself could use some work in telling the user what's going on.

• Lenovo ThinkCentre A57

  The Lenovo A57 is a well-priced office desktop with a strong performance. While very similar to its smaller sibling, the M57e, the A57 offers better performance and upgrade options for a small price increase.

• ZoneAlarm Internet Security 6.0

  ZoneAlarm Security Suite puts Norton and McAfee to shame with its easy-to-use triple-layer firewall, antivirus, antispam and now antispyware features.

• ZoneAlarm Pro 5.5

  ZoneAlarm Pro 5.5 is the best software firewall available to PC users today.

• AVG Internet Security 8.0

  AVG Internet Security 8.0 provides strong protection against malicious Web sites, but its full-system scans sometimes tax system resources and produce false positives.

• Windows Server 2008

  Windows Server 2008 is easier to install and manage than previous versions, and has many new and improved features that should encourage organisations to upgrade.

• OS X remains the safe option for now: Sophos

  Apple's OS X remains a safe option when compared to Microsoft Windows XP or its successor, Vista, according to antivirus firm Sophos.

• ZoneAlarm Pro 4.5

  ZoneAlarm Pro 4.5 is a great firewall for security rookies, but you'll still need a separate antivirus program.

• McAfee Internet Security Suite 2007

  Despite the interface redesign, the McAfee Internet Security Suite 2007 feels like a grab bag of security and system performance tools. It'll keep your PC safe, but we think there are other products on the market that do so with greater ease.

• Windows Vista Ultimate

  Windows Vista Ultimate is essentially warmed-over Windows XP. If you're currently happy with Windows XP SP2, we see no compelling reason to upgrade. On the other hand, if you need a new computer right now, Windows Vista is stable enough for everyday use.
