What is the difference between internet security software and antivirus software?
And is there any that you would recommend?
Internet Security vs Anti virus?free antivirus
Internet security software is a term for a suite of applications that often include antivirus, firewall, spyware and privacy protection pieces.
antivirus software is only a small piece of what you need.
What operating system are you looking to protect? You can either buy a suite of products or look for free versions of the software on the Internet.
I have used http://www.trendmicro.com/en/home/us/per... Internet Security Suite as well as free software programs such as:
Antivirus:

http://free.grisoft.com
Anti-spyware:
Windows Defender
Spybot S%26D (http://www.spybot.info)
Firewall
Windows built in
Zonealarm (registration required) http://www.zonelabs.com
There are lots of others. Do a yahoo search on each item and you can build a pretty good list. If you need more information let me know.

They both work hand in hand internet security is basically a firewall and anti virus keeps you free from viruses worms Trojans etc you should really should have both and symantec has a very nice package you can get http://www.symantec.com/
Security software bundles a whole bunch of crap into one, such antivirus, antispyware, pop up blocker etc, these programs are usually not as good as the stand alone programs. Here are a list of free antivirus, and antispyware http://www.basicspywaretips.com/freeviru...
