Not much, but the suite will generally have an email scanner, and other things like that.

adware/spyware scanner, pop up blocker, spam killer etc.

A word of caution with some suites

If you are thinking of McAfee internet suite I had to turn off the popup and Spam because the realtime monitoring slowed my pute to a standstill.

I just used the anti-virus and firewall
