comes with some good data protection program or antivirus ????

does not come with antivirus or data protection. The button is for auto back up, which I don't use. I do it myself and don't use the button or software.

Thats an interesting question. I don't see that in the product description. What makes you think that an external hard drive would have antivirus protection? As far as i know its just a harddrive.

It does not. I do not know of an auxiliary hard drive that does come with this pre installed. This type of software is normally installed on your " C " drive and is directed by you to protect each drive that you designate.

It came with a trial of Norton, but i recommend AVG (which has a free version you can get from www.download.com)

I recommend to you not to loose the protection of the product. If you want to wait is ok. but better be protected. Kaspersky 2013 is fine and sometimes you can update to the latestes version for free.

I have one of these and there is no security software included. It is just a raw storage device.

Yes it does. It comes with Microsoft Security Essentials, a very good anti-virus software.

There are multiple excellent free antivirus options out there. Microsoft's own Security Essentials is free and fast. Spending money on Norton or McAfee is a huge waste.

Yes, part of the package is automatic updates to the system. All virus software MUST update frequently, or the latest problems will not be addressed.

You should *have* a reputable antivirus app on your machine, but Microsoft's Windows Defender is acceptable if you would like a free, basic, easy to maintain software.Please also read the following article:Tools for a Safer PC - Krebs on Security - http://krebsonsecurity.com/tools-for-a-safer-pc/(Note that "Microsoft Security Essentials" is now known as "Windows Defender" which I referenced above.)

Mine came with a free 30 day trial of Microsoft Office, McAfee Antivirus Trial, and Windows 7 Home Premium. That's about it.

It comes with a free trial of McAfee. Right now I just use Avast, it's free and it works.

I believe you can password protect it if you like. It comes with instructions and software sites, but I just use them for straightforward back up. They are really fast and at a good price.

It comes only with a trial version of McAffee. At least that's what mine came with. You can get a good, free antivirus program called Microsoft Security Essentials. Hope this helps!!

this is not complete, only anti-virus.... works with XP. if u need complete, buy the total protection.

You need to buy an antivirus regardless of the machine youre getting. Unless ur os is linux, even Mac OS whatever needs an AV now.

I don't know, but this shouldn't be an issue because AVG free edition is vastly superior to both McAfee and Norton and doesn't cost a dime!
