Default Internet security programs

I'm wanting to replace my current internet security and I am leaning towards two different choices. Bit Defender 2013 Internet Security and Trend Titanium Internet Security 2013. But before I buy, I thought I would see what some of our computer geek experts here in the forums would have to say. I curently use two free versions. Malwarebites Anti Malware and Avast. The Avast seems to give me a lot of false positives. No real problems with the Malwarebites program so may hang onto it for now. I just wondered what computer security programs are popular with our members.

Ive had Mcaffee,use avg2013 free,and a separate free firewall ,cant install anything without my permission unless I check ok.
Best ive ever had was a dual boot linux,upon startup I had to approve any changes to any program including windows,on your end looked like your hack took.Best thing is it will erase any part of windows and even let one replace with an older version of something,it does not care what moneysoft thinks.Moneysoft wont let one replace with an older version of anything even if yours is not working properly.
Linux is a far safer browser just cannot always use easily the programs one has for win,free win can run many just not games,and specialized apps.
Now wine takes the place of all that,program inside that runs windows apps,note to self-need to do linux again.
