Anti virus will only protect your computer from viral infections.
Internet Security is a package that usually includes an anti virus, anti malware (not as bad as a virus but extremely annoying), a spam blocker for your emails and possibly parental controls. It is recommended to have an anti virus and an anti malware at the minimum.

Internet protection usually refers to a firewall. Much different than an anti-virus program.

Anti-virus is usually standalone utility, designed to protect / detect / remove viruses, worms and trojan horses.
Internet protection is a name for SUITE of all combined protection tools, such as anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, anti-phishing, firewall, parental control… Internet protection is also called Security suite, All-In-One package ( AIO ), internet security and so on.
They are NOT the same thing.
If you will buy Internet protection suite, you do NOT need to buy another anti-virus. Although, read why **** packages are bad :
If i would be you, i d rather buy anti-virus, firewall and anti-spyware separately. Not in one suite. You also have free alternatives :
♣ Avira or Avast!
♣ ZoneAlarm Free or Comodo
♣ Spyware Terminator & Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
Hope it helped.

In it’s ‘out-of-the-box’ condition, MS Windows is plagued with security problems and bad configurations that most users are unaware of, and securing that system from Internet predation & assault is not a single application, or a suite: and it’s not a “1 click does every fix” that so many want…it ain’t going to happen peeps.
It’s layers of protection, user habits, system configuration, real time protection; and most important, threat matrix awareness (because the internet is so fluid and dynamic, it changes almost hourly).
(Check for fairly current threats here:…
“Do-it-all” suites (CareOne, McAfee, or Norton, etc.) give users ‘feel good’ security, and lull them into complacency, which often has very bad results.
Core defense applications might include (but not limited to):
Avast! (anti-virus);
or Microsoft’s “Essentials” home version (freeware; 3 versions):
Kerio/Sunbelt Personal Firewall (free) is good entry level protection; paid version is excellent;
SpywareBlaster (snoopware prevention);
>>>The #1 defense against any malware: Use a “Limited User” account & Firefox, with ‘NoScript’ add-on, with “locked down” settings
