We live in an age of technology, with endless resources at our fingertips. Just turn on your PC, Mac, Android or iOS device and merge onto the information highway where you can shop, browse, communicate, share, socialize, work, bank and more. The wonders of the Internet are seemingly limitless, but similar to most things in life, with the good comes the bad. Lurking around every corner are malicious online threats that put your computers, mobile devices, information and identity at risk. While you answer e-mail, you're vulnerable to phishing attacks. Every new link may lead to a virus. Fake Web sites might look legitimate but could trick you into revealing crucial information. Malware could infiltrate your device at any moment. Don't panic — defend your identity and your technology with the powerful protection features of Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security, and navigate the Internet without worry.Always-on protection means that whether you're shopping, banking, browsing or sharing, Webroot is there to stop the latest known and unknown threats that put you at risk. This software will warn you about infected Web sites before you visit them and provides continuous protection without interruptions or slowdowns. Facebook and Twitter are no longer such high points of weakness as Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security provides comprehensive social network protection to help counteract tricky malware. To make life simpler, Webroot manages your passwords, so you only have to remember one, and lets you navigate security on your devices from one easy-to-use interface. This software also analyzes your operating system for existing system issues to get you started with a clean slate. Enjoy all that the Web has to offer without putting yourself at risk. Whether you have a PC, Mac, Android or iOS device — or regularly use up to three of them online — defend them with Webroot.

Free add-on that isn't really free.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Obviously everybody needs virus and malware protection. They all seem to eventually corrupt or cause problems with Windows. I don't no if this is any better than Norton or Macafee, probably not. While it is free for a year you will pay when the subscription automatically kicks in. I cannot recommend this or not because I am not using it.

What can you really say about Microsoft Office. If you have to use Windows then it is probably the safest way to go. Most folks don't need nor can they master all of the features of Word and Excel. First time users will have a learning curve that might be shortened by tutorial such as Office for Dummies.

Good Value

Pretty good entry level PC. Too many people get caught up in the bells and whistles they don't need and spend a lot more money than necessary. This unit handles email, web surfing and MS Office Apps just fine. I am not a gamer but I doubt the sound and speed would suffice to blow up the world.

Madden is Madden

Have been buying and playing Madden for at least 10 years. Not sure how much better they can make it. This year's version has no real surprises but does seem a bit faster and the graphics a touch crisper if that's possible.

Absolutely The Best Protector
on August 29, 2015
Posted by: Ballcoach
from Rockville, MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the second Zagg Glas I have had on my iPhone 6. The first one did exactly what it was supposed to do, protecting my screen from a very deep gash that was my fault. The full glass version is far superior to the Zagg plastic protector I have on my iPad. Not only does it protect but does a terrific job retarding smudging and skin oils. Cleans very easily with a damp cloth. I would suggest spending the extra 8 bucks to a Geek Squad tech install it. No bubbles and perfectly straight. My next iPad will have Zagg Glass as well. Very happy with Product and Best Buy service.

Okay But Found Better Cover
on July 25, 2015
Posted by: Ballcoach
from Rockville, MD
Verified Purchase:Yes
This cover is okay. It will keep your TV safe from the elements. It is also poorly designed and difficult to get on and off. Beware, if you have mounted your unit higher than normal reach this cover is not usable without a ladder. I am returning this cover after finding a better product at The Cover Store online. There are several models and price points. The one I am now using stays on the TV and you just flip up the front panel. The Solaire must be taken off completely each time TV is used.

Allows for connection of my iPad mini to HDMI TV. Turns a basic flat screen into a "smart tv" so I can watch Netflicks, Hulu, Plex etc. no need to buy more expense name brands. Best Buy's Insignia house brand items provide good quality and excellent value most of the time.

Does what it needs to do. Allows for HDMI connection from IBook to any HDMI equipped TV. Insignia brand is of course Best Buy's in house. I have never been disappointed with Insignia quality. Own several TVs and many accessories. Always good value for price and the price is always better than non-sale national brand merchandise.

The Rockfish cables and accessories perform very well. No need to spend crazy money on Monster cables unless you have a situation with serious interference. Selection is usually excellent.

With 300W total power and a 6.5" wireless active subwoofer, this Samsung 400 Series HW-J450/ZA soundbar allows you to add robust, dynamic audio to your existing home theater setup. The Bluetooth 2.1 interface lets you link with select devices.
 

How do I turn on the wireless sub?

I assume your TV has Bluetooth. If not you can't use the wireless. If Bluetooth is on in your TV settings it should find it automatically. If it doesn't there are pairing instructions in the quick set p manual. It's available on Samsung website. Samsung TV remote will not control sound bar. Either use the simple remote that came with unit or get a programmable Harmony remote that will control both..

I just bought a Samsung UN46H5203AF Television and a Samsung HW-J450 Soundbar. I also have DirecTV. Will my TV or DirecTV remote control both?

TV remote will not unless Samsung changed something in that model. I do not have Direct TV so cannot speak for their remotes. My Harmony remote does run both my Samsung TV and Soundbar.

Are you able to change the margins?

Have only used printer with iBook, iPhones and iPads. Margins change just fine from respective apps. I assume you are printing pictures direct from a card or other storage device. On-line docs or User forum would probably answer your question.
