TrendMicro PC-Cillin Internet Security
from: Ben Sikes
The original PC-Cillin was an antivirus application. In 2006 it's grown into a full Internet security suite with firewall, spam filter and parental controls.
Computer security is essential to prevent PC performance loss and identity theft. Spyware clogs system resources, taking up disk space and slowing down the PC. Some may also be capable of stealing personal information. Fake sites to gather information are also plentiful and many emails try to fool the reader into visiting one of these sites to enter credit card numbers or logins to other legitimate sites.
TrendMicro PC-Cillin Internet Security suite is the perfect companion for the home and small office computer, providing a range of benefits in a single, affordable package to protect against these dangers:
* comprehensive antivirus protection: automatically updated to provide constant, efficient protection of emails, browsing and removable media.
* spyware protection: real time and scheduled scans plus quarantine management feature for files which cannot be immediately removed
* phishing defense: patent-pending technology for detecting fake websites designed to steal personal information
* wi-fi intrusion alerts: for when an unauthorized user taps into a wireless connection
* improved spam filtering: now with Microsoft Outlook integration and advanced reporting
* personal firewall: for protection from hackers and network viruses
* network control: to mange protection across any PC in the home or small network
* vulnerability scanning: regular scans to alert when vulnerabilities are found plus access to Windows Update
* advanced parental control: block inappropriate websites and content from the children
* simple, clear interface: easy to understand and control for PC novices and experts alike
* email antivirus protection compatible with Microsoft Outlook Express 6.0, Microsoft Outlook 2000/2002/2003, Netscape 7.1, Eudora Pro 6J, AOL, Yahoo!, Hotmail, Thunderbird 1.0
* instant messaging shield works with Windows Messenger 4.7/5.0, MSN Messenger 6.2, ICQ 5 and ICQ Lite, AOL 5.1
* 30 day trial: download and assess PC-Cillin before purchasing
For any questionable files which arise and are not confirmed by PC-Cillin as an Internet parasite, they can be submitted to Trend Micro's EDoctor Lab for analysis and a response can be expected within 48 hours. This system ensures if there is a malicious file which has not gotten into the database yet, it surely will do soon once it has been discovered on the loose. Public input into research is invaluable in keeping security applications up to date.
TrendMicro PC-Cillin Internet Security is available as a single license home package, or in multiple license packages for the small office. It is fully customizable to provide relevant protection for different machines, or even different environments, for example, on a laptop which travels between work, office and on the road.
PC-Cillin is currently only available for Windows computers, running the following specifications:
* Pentium 233MHz or above with Windows98/98 SE/Me
* Pentium 300MHz or above with Windows 2000/XP (Home or Professional)
