I am researching a new desktop security suite for a small office. They
have a netgear DG834 adsl router, and two PC's. Currently Norton IS
2005 is installed, but i want to take that out.
Am looking at both the ZoneAlarm Security Suite and Trend Micro
PC-Cillin. Its needs to have a decent firewall amd spam/spyware
blocker? Whats the best option or should i go for Zonealarm Pro and a
sep antivirus?
Is it a good idea to store cc numbers on of the above internet
connected pc's? They will be encrypted, but will also have the
decryption file sitting on the PC as well.
Should i consider anything else?
I have also been told that i should consider setting up a proxy server?
I dont know too much about these (i'm a junior programmer), only that
it sits on seperate machine, between the router and the pc's, and
handles all the security in one place? Is this overkill for an office
with just two pc's?
Help would be much appreciated?
Thanks
Vince

No, never.

Trojans are quite capable of sending back the current screen

Use its NAT facility.
In addition, on the PCs, a software firewall like ZoneAlarm Pro, anti-virus
like AVG, and a spam filter like SpamPal.
