False negatives are riskier than false positives because say for example, if there wasn't an attack and the IDS picked it (false positive), its not much of a harm but if there was an attack and the IDS doesn't detect it (false negative), then it can be disastrous.

What do you mean by a.m. and p.m.?

Meridiem is the Latin for midday.Ante is the Latin for before.Post is the Latin for after. a.m. is the abbreviation of the Latin phrase ante meridiem - and means beforemidday.p.m. is the abbreviation of the Latin phrase post meridiem - and means after midday. Because we use a 12 hour clock we need to be able to distinguish which part of the day we mean when we say 8 o'clock. I don't want to hang around for 12 hours wiating for the 8:00 bus.

Can anyone tell me the names of the leading intrusion prevention system brands?

The brand of intrusion prevention is not as important as what you have installed. You want to have a company that monitors the system so when the alarms goes off, there is someone there to respond. Also, what they install is important, for instance, if you put protection on all the windows but nothing on the doors, then you are defeating the purpose of an intrusion prevention system. Also, think about what you can do to deter a thief from even approaching your house in the first place like automatic lights, camera's(dummy ones or real ones, that can be seen).
