I have Kaspersky Internet Security on my computer. It is set to expire in ten days or so. If I renew it for one year I have to pay $69.99, which is actually a discounted price, as the regular price is $79.99.
When I renewed last year they had a much bigger discount. I think I paid around $40, which I was okay with spending. I don't want to pay the amount they are asking for now. That's a lot! They are giving me a better deal if I renew for three years ($149.99 instead of $239.97) but I don't want to renew for that long a period or spend that much in one shot.
I don't want to leave my laptop unprotected... Not sure what to do. Is there something good out there that is not that expensive?
What are you guys using and how much does it cost you for one year?

We use Webroot SecureAnywhere. They have it on sale for $29.99/year for one device right now. Their virus definitions are all stored on the cloud rather than in the computer's local memory, so it runs way faster than other programs out there. Makes it really convenient because you don't have to worry about downloading definition updates; they're made available pretty much immediately via the cloud.

Never heard of this one. Not a bad price on it. What cloud does it store stuff on?

@lovebuglena They use their own servers.
