The information available through this newsgroup is worth more in a day than
that in "PC Magazine" in the last 10 years as far as protection against
viruses and other malware. The main thing is to get something in place as
soon as possible. Any delays while you bounce from one source to another is
much worse than choosing a slightly less than optimum program.

Take anything you read in a general interest level publication like "PC
Magizine" with a large grain of skepticism.
