Bullguard Internet Security are offering anyone who would like to try their software, a free trial lasting 60 days of Bullguard Internet Security 9.0. This is their most comprehensive security protection for your computer, and is built exclusively for the every day user making keeping your computer safe simple, and easy to do.

When you download this free trial, you will get access to the full software and 24/7 support just as you would if you bought the full product. All your e-mail, online shopping, banking, music, photos, and so on will be secured with Bullguard’s internet security package, and you will be protected from online threats such as identity theft, credit card fraud, hackers, spam, viruses and spyware.

The main interface of the software has been given a new look for this latest version, and you are presented with a very clean, simple board of icons each of which will let you perform a different security task with a simple click of the mouse. The icons you have are:

* Scan for viruses
* Backup your data
* Allow/Block programs
* Contact support
* Online Drive
* System status
* Check for updates
* Your Bullguard Account
* Upgrade

Because there are no multi-layered menus to have to manoeuvre through, it doesn’t matter whether you are an IT expert, or a novice with computers, this set up which has been designed with the end user in mind, makes it simple to perform any of the tasks easily, and gives the software a nice friendly feel.

Some of the key features that you get with Bullguard Internet Security 9.0 are:

* Antivirus
* Antispyware
* Antiphishing
* Firewall
* Instant messaging protection
* Constant security updates
* 24/7 customer support

Some of these features make this Bullguard software stand out from others that are available too, such as the instant messaging protection that you get here.

Whenever you exchange data via IM you will be protected just as you are with data sent by e-mail. Customer support that’s available 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and is provided in clear plain spoken English is also very important as there is nothing worse than having a problem, needing help, phoning the support service and then not being able to understand what they’re talking about either because of poorly spoken English, or the jargon that’s used. Internet Security 9.0 is very quiet when it’s running, it doesn’t keep asking you for input every step of the way, and this is a feature that Bullguard are very proud of, as they say, most of us really don’t care how something like this works, as long as we know that it is working and that it is protecting our system as we need it to.

Netflights is a great website where you can find some really good deals on holidays. They sell package deals, and also individual components such as flights, hotels, and car hire.
You can search the site for what you’re looking for either by looking for a specific location that you want to visit, and then seeing what’s available, or if you’re not really sure where you want to go, but you want to fly cheaply, you can look according to when you want to go, or even just do a more general search on the site to see what the best offers are.

At the moment, some of their best offers include:

New York
Obviously the costs of flying somewhere vary according to whether you want to fly economy, first class or business class. Currently the best cheap flights to New York from the UK to New York would mean flying by Kuwait Airways from London Heathrow, to New York JFK International on the 5th October, and returning on arriving home on the 22nd October, and would cost you as follows:

* Economy Class: £265 (£160 + £105 taxes and fees).
* Business Class: £696 (£545 + £151 taxes and fees).
* First Class: £1,081 (£860 + £150 taxes and fees).

Dubai
Once again, you’d have three options, Economy, Enhanced Economy and Business Class, and this time you’d be flying out on the 19th October, and returning on the 23rd November.

* Economy Class: London Heathrow, UK via Istanbul, Turkey to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Flying with Turkish Airlines. It would cost £276.50 (£99 + £177.50 taxes and fees).
* Enhanced Economy Class: London Heathrow, UK to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Flying with Virgin Atlantic. It would cost £754.27 (£497 + £257.27 taxes and fees).
* Business Class: London Heathrow, UK via Istanbul, Turkey to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Flying with Turkish Airlines. It would cost £1,107.50 (£885 + £222.50 taxes and fees).

Bangkok
Again there are three cheap flights to Bangkok options to choose from, Economy, Enhanced Economy and Business Class, and these prices are based on flying out on the 6th of October and returning on the 14th October.

* Economy Class: London Heathrow, UK via Mumbai, India to Bangkok, Thailand. Flying with Jet Airways. It would cost £432 (£220 + £212 taxes and fees).
* Enhanced Economy Class: London Heathrow, to Bangkok, Thailand. Flying with Eva Air. It would cost £769.07 (£560 + £209.07 taxes and fees).
* Business Class: London Heathrow, to Bangkok, Thailand. Flying with Eva Air. It would cost £1,429.07 (£1,220 + £209.07 taxes and fees).

As you can see, the prices vary a lot depending on the comfort levels that you’re looking for, and it’s not always the same airline who will offer the best deals across the board. For this reason, using a site like Netflights who can source the best deals is invaluable if you want to find the best possible prices. Prices will also vary according to when you fly, and how long you plan on being away for, so sometimes it can be worth varying your travel times to see if a cheaper option becomes available.
