Spyware Doctor 10.0 has just been released and has recieved a significant amount of fanfare. The software was awarded PC magazines highest rating ever of 95% for an antivirus / antispyware product. I definitely tend to agree with this award as it's been a featured product on this website for over 2 years. Unfortunately, the latest version of spyware doctor must be purchased. While this may seem like a downside, if you want the latest in PC protection definetly think about picking up the full product. However, most of the readers of this website want a free verison. Therefore, there are many free offerings that people are unaware of made by PC tools. In addition to Free Spyware Doctor starter edition, PC tools offers a free antivirus software, free firewall, and threat fire to protect against undiscovered malware threats.
PC tools Antivirus 6.1:
PC tools antivirus is an excellent free antivirus software. The program uses very little resources and is certified by Westcoast and ICSA labs (the main antivirus reviewing companies.) The updates are very fast and the software includes a realtime scanning agent. I'am not quite sure why PC tools doesn't charge money for this antivirus software.
PC tools Firewall Plus:
The company has an excellent free firewall that works with all versions of Windows including, Windows 7. The default Windows firewall only includes an inbound firewall. PC tools firewall will also give a PC inbound protection in addition to out bound protection. I really like the included support for IPV6 which will soon become the standard on the internet. Most current firewalls omit IPV6 protection and only protect IPV4 creating a lot of vulnerabilities.
ThreatFire 4.5:
ThreatFire is an antivirus addon that uses behavorial technology to detect viruses even before they are released. ThreatFire has already scanned more than 100 billion programs and counting.
In conclusion, if you install all of these free programs you are practically ensuring that your PC will be secure even in some of the most mission critical situations. So head over to the PC tools website and happy downloading :).
