VirusKeeper Standard's Description |
|
Today, most computers are connected to the internet, which exposes them to threats likeviruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware and Internet Explorer attacks.
Many antivirus programs are available, but most of them are scanners that can only detect known viruses. This clumsy method is ineffective at stopping new viruses and needs constant updating. Access to updates also generally requires an annual fee. That's why viruses like Blaster, Sasser and Bagle infected million of computers in a few days though most of them were "protected" by antivirus scanners.
In addition, antivirus scanners do not detect spyware and do not protect Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer is more and more the target of programs and web sites that install extra toolbars and buttons, and display advertising pop ups that slow down the computer.
VirusKeeper protects the computer against viruses AND spyware. VirusKeeper uses a powerful real-time threat detection engine. It monitors all aspects of your system : running processes, system files, the registry and the I/O ports. VirusKeeper acts as a shield against viruses, spyware and other malicious software. VirusKeeper also protects Internet Explorer from programs and web sites that try to change your default pages or try to install toolbars or spy components.
VirusKeeper uses a behavior analysis method, rather than the basic scanner employed by other antivirus programs. VirusKeeper analyzes the activity of all programs running in memory and flags any suspicious processes. You can use VirusKeeper and another antivirus scanner at the same time for the highest level of security.
Key feastures of "Multi Virus Cleaner 2007"
Windows system files and directories protection
Viruses often target the Windows system files or try to hide themselves in the Windows system directories. VirusKeeper protects the system files and detects changes and intrusions. When VirusKeeper locates a virus or any other program attempting to change the Windows system files, it alerts the user and neutralizes the threat.
Windows registry protection
The Windows registry contains large amounts of settings and data required by Windows. It serves as another good target for viruses and other malicious programs. VirusKeeper constantly protects the Windows registry and detects and prevents any potentially dangerous changes. It will alert the user when this happens.
Active process scan
VirusKeeper identifies and constantly monitors all active programs (processes) loaded in memory. Once a malicious program or suspicious activity is detected, VirusKeeper displays an alert and neutralizes the threat.
I/O port monitoring
Some viruses, like Sasser, infiltrate the computer through input/output ports. These viruses do not need email to propagate themselves: they can infect any computer connected to the internet ! VirusKeeper constantly watches the PC I/O ports and detects any suspicious activity. VirusKeeper displays information about potentially dangerous activity and gives the user the chance to stop it.
Real-time spyware detection
Spyware infections have considerably increased during the past two years. Spyware can infect the computer through a program or a web page. Once installed, spyware can show advertising pop ups, install toolbars and buttons in Internet Explorer and monitor a user's computer activity, while significantly slowing down the computer. Since spyware is a fairly recent threat, classical antivirus programs often do not detect it. VirusKeeper constantly protects your computer against spyware; it detects and prevents any malware installation. VirusKeeper can also identify all current spyware programs.
Internet Explorer protection
Microsoft Internet Explorer is the major web navigator in the world, making it a good target for malicious programs ! Some programs and web sites install toolbars or change the search page without the user's permission. VirusKeeper constantly protects Internet Explorer and detects any changes in the default pages, settings or external components. |
