NEW PRODUCT FEATURES

Collective Intelligence. Maximum Protection with Minimum Impact.

Panda Security’s Collective Intelligence works as an online and real-time database that stores the majority of signature files, keeping them at a minimum on the endpoint. Every Panda user is a sensor for new malware, sending samples back to the cloud.

With Panda 2008 range of products protection was purely based on the users’ PCs installed signature file. With the new Collective Intelligence approach Panda 2009 products also send regular queries to the cloud.

• Web navigation, eMail and Instant Messaging (IM). Panda sends queries to the cloud whenever an executable program is received. Keep in mind that it is not very common to receive executables, dll files, etc via this media.
• On-access scan (processes/libraries loaded in memory). How does it work? Imagine that 40 files are loaded in memory; Panda sends a query to the cloud and confirms them to be good ware. A couple of hours later, there are 42 programs uploaded in memory, from which 40 were already loaded and checked before. Panda will ONLY perform the check for the new 2 programs, since the other 40 have been checked before. A minimum PC and bandwidth consumption is used when sending queries to the cloud.
• On-demand scans. Whether is automatic or on-demand, Panda also sends queries to the cloud.

What are the main benefits for the users?

• Faster and better detection rate
• Faster and better disinfection rate
• Minimum PC resources and bandwidth consumption
• Furthermore the community feature of Collective Intelligence provides a full vision and full traceability of the new malware techniques and distribution points. This knowledge allows Panda to continuously improve the protection of its customers.

Identity Theft Protection
The new Anti-Banking Trojans engine detects the most dangerous identity theft malware used by cyber-criminals to steal banking credentials. Specialized heuristics and generic detection techniques ensure maximum protection for online transactions. Furthermore the Anti-Rootkit Technology detects and removes silently-installed rootkits used by malware or hackers to evade traditional antivirus products. The free Panda Anti-Rootkit, used by millions of people around the world, recently won the Editor’s Choice award from PC Magazine.

The Anti-Phishing Filter recognizes fraudulent email and protects users from scams while you shop, bank or pay bills online.

The Identity Theft protection module included on PIS 2009 and PGP 2009 has been improved:

• It now incorporates an advanced heuristic scan that detects more identity theft
• The personal Information Filter prevents theft from users PC of credit card numbers
• social security numbers and any other personal information you define
• The new Web Filter allows users to safely browse the Internet without risk of drive-by infections, vulnerability exploits, browser hijacking or phishing websites. By analyzing web site content, forms, links and web reputation scores (from Anti-Phishing org),

Anti-Rootkit Technology detects and removes silently-installed rootkits used by malware or hackers to evade traditional antivirus products.

Current malware behavior changes constantly and consequently, our proactive technologies need to be updated overtime. The new TruPrevent 2.0 has been improved and is now integrated with our Collective Intelligence platform, increasing the detection rate substantially while decreasing the amount of false positives.

Panda is one of the best Anti-Virus programs that I Have ever used.Its an anti-virus and a whole lot more.

Highly Recommended

4 Stars Panda Antivirus Pro 2009
Panda Antivirus Pro is rated Good by many, we have had no problems with this software, updates regularly and does not intrude or bog down computer has kept our computers free of infections and spyware even malware removed with Panda Antivirus was easy to install about ten minutes we have had many different Antivirus programs and this one compares to all the better programs out there on the market today, allows me to work around it while it scans my system, you can even scedule this program to scan when you scedule it for your time not just what the manufacture sets as a time to scan this makes it easy when you don’t want any scanning being performed while you are busy or need to leave in a hurry and can not attend your computer while it scans

5 Stars Panda Antivirus
I am no computer expert, yet I can set up Panda and run a virus scan all by myself! It is simple to use and very efficient. I have never had a problem with Panda and have used it for several years and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a reliable program!

1 Star Do not purchase if you have Lojack on your laptop
Purchased this product due to good reviews. I had it installed on my Vista laptop for under a week and the AV locked down my network connection (”to prevent the spread of the trojan”) due to a false positive on a file used by Computrace. Tried to uninstall it and it would not let me (within Windows and via it’s own Uninstall executable). Emailed in a request for help and two days later received a automated reply to update my AV and do a full scan. Apparently they did not read my email. The Company is located in Spain, so there is no stateside phone number to call. Did some research online and have found numerous folks have had the same problem (with false positives) for the past 5 years. They apparently have not fixed the problem. I am now working on getting a refund, but do not expect much.

4 Stars Very good antivirus program
I found this program easy to load, easy to use, and a very good antivirus.

Micromat TechTool Pro 4 Mac

This is the eagerly anticipated Universal Binary version of TechTool Pro that will run on both Intel and PowerPC-based Macs. It fully supports the hardware changes introduced to the Macintosh platform with the introduction of the new MacIntel chipsets. All of the features of the program that were previously available for PowerPC based Macs are available for Intel-based Macs as well. This includes the innovative eDrive (emergency startup partition) feature of the program, found nowhere else. In addition to Universal Binary support, the new release will also include some significant program enhancements, including improved Disk Controller test routines. Unlike most application software, more than a simple re-compile of the program was required to support the new Intel-based Macs. Because TechTool Pro works with the computer hardware at the lowest levels, it was necessary for Micromat to completely re-engineer the software from the ground up. In order to support the new models, Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) is required to run the program.
TechTool Pro ships on DVD for both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs. The DVD will automatically boot the correct system version.
No product comes close to TechTool Pro for ensuring that all of your hardware and software is operating at peak performance. No other software gives you the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your valuable data is protected by the latest technology. With a single mouse click, TechTool Pro can automatically run a series of sophisticated tests that will troubleshoot almost any problem you are having with your Macintosh.

5 Stars I Think It’s Good
Some software’s are so complicated - but this doesn’t appear to be. It seems to be rather quite simple… That is, if I’m taking advantages of all it can do. I bought it because of the reviews on this site and CNET. I guess it “dose” good for the “system” becsue it seems to run better afterwords (CERTAINLY not worse) - however if my computing functions are all that complicated in the first place to need such “refining” remains to be seen. So I recommend it “just because” it’s good to have something that dose what it says it dose… But always remember - don’t fool yourself - run the “advanced” scan at night - it will tip the scales at FOUR HOURS or even more…

5 Stars Works as advertised. I am very pleased with their new 5.02 update.
I am a reluctant “need to maintain this Mac” user. I am a webmaster for my church using iWeb. I looked at Disc Warrior and didn’t understand the features offered. I tried the trial download and still didn’t understand disc warrior.

After generating a “disc error” disc utility couldn’t fix I frantically searched for a solution and found the tech tool version that came with my Appe Care Warranty.

Never could fix problem with that version. I bought the Pro version, at that time 4.6 and got it fixed in 5 minutes!

The new interface is much better when doing volume optimization. There is a graphic that lets you clearly see where you are in this lengthy process. It does take a long time to complete, but the performance of your machine will amaze you.

I used to take 45 Min. to an hr. to completely back up 141+ GB to a backup disc. After the optimization it takes 7 minutes!

You DO need to read their documentation. Get familiar with what they tell you before you start willy-nilly trying things.

This program is not meant for the highly networked Terabyte business. Again they tell you clearly what they can and can not do on what hardware, running which operating system versions. Excellent job Micromat.

1 Star TechTool Pro v4.6.1 will not work with Mac OS X 10.5
I’ve had Tech Tool Pro from the start. I thought it to be essential. Not so as it will not work for me with Mac 6S X 10.5.

I have a G-Drive 500 GB exterior hard drive. It is the item 4.6.1 cannot deal with. I have just run a complete defrag of the G-Drive in this, my 20th or so attempt to get 4.6.1 to run. Running the medium program, as recommended for periodic maintence, it runs to Volumes, Volume Structures (for the G-Drive) to the point of Catalog File (B-Tree) number 1394362 of 2604014 and freezes. Nothing clicks. The computer must then be completely shut down then restarted in order to get the disk to eject.

This completely worthless. And to think I paid an upgrade from 4.5 only to get the code more perfectly written to serve the Intel processors. My unit is still a Powerbook with G4 chip.

And to think I paid for the 4.6 then the announcements about 5.0 began with explanation mmost all of us would have to pay for an entire upgrade again.

If Micromat thinks we will all be sheep & buy 5.0 they have another thing coming.

5 Stars excellent service
received shipping notice right away. did not receive my software for like a month. emailed amazon and they sent another one right away.

1 Star Do NOT waste your $$$$
To begin with, TTP is not by any means the only game in town. It is however, going to be the the most expensive or completely useless. Micromat will be happy either way. As a current Micromat customer, I am the proud owner of an expensive utility that worked for all of two months. Leopard broke it completely. When Micromat updated their utility to be compatible with Apple’s current OS, they wanted all of us to pay them again. They simply renamed the “update” from “Techtool Pro 4″ r4.5.3 to “Techtool Pro 4″ r4.6.1 an “upgrade”. They’re also calling their all new “Techtool Pro 5″ an “upgrade”. Do yourself a favor, buy Diskwarrior and you’ll only have to pay for it just the one time.

5 Stars Fantastic! I feel so much safer with my kids on the internet..
After installing Safe Eyes on my kids three computers (the max allowed with the software, though you can have up to SIX user accounts), I tested the software by going to some nefarious websites. It didn’t allow me to go there. Perfect! A few minutes later, my wife called me from her work. “Is Johnny home?” she asked. Of course he wasn’t, and I told her so. She said, “I just got an e-mail from SafeEyes, saying Johnny was trying to go to some web site.” SafeEyes worked that FAST, that perfectly!

The options are SUPER customizable, allowing the blocking of ANYthing, but also specific categories: porn, guns, violence, language, chat, game sites, ANYthing!

Very simple to set up, and once it’s set up, it needs no maintenance. Time schedules, time LIMITS, it has it all!

I give my highest recommendation!

2 Stars Good protection - but incompatible with software
I’ve used Safeeyes on my children’s PCs for several years. While it is fairly solid in it’s abilities - the way in which it works prevents some software from functioning - such as anti-virus software.

Support is rather unresponsive.

The features and management controls are not intuitive. If you are intimidated by setting up software - look elsewhere…

5 Stars Excellent Software!!!
This is the best filtering software I’ve found yet. It’s running on multiple machines and has no conflict with the array of software I use daily (from AutoCAD to Sony Vegas). For anyone looking to keep crap off their computer and out of sight, this is great stuff. Let the world pollute its own; and let those who have an eternal hope live like the One who called us out!

5 Stars This is the one you want…
Excellent software. Easy to install. Bargain price. Each registered copy can be installed on up to three computers, allowing customized safety perimeters for multiple users on each. Safe Eyes makes it a breeze to control and monitor your child’s use of the internet. After typing in all the customized data for each of my six children, I was thrilled to see that Safe Eyes remembered all settings when I installed it on other computers in our home. Now each of my children has personalized log in information that allows them safe access to the internet on any computer we own, and they can’t lock me out with a password change. Even my computer savvy teens haven’t figured out how to beat this software without me knowing about it. Score one for Mom!

4 Stars Works As Intended
I bought Windows Vista to use on my Intel based iMac, and it runs just as I expected it to. It is by no means a good operating system, but for those of you that need to switch over to Windows for a couple programs, this certainly will do the trick. The install was painless via Bootcamp, and the package comes with everything you need to be up and running in no time.

5 Stars Installed successfully on Macbook (10.5.4)
I have 120 GB Macbook. Got this 32-bit Windows Home Premium DVD and successfully installed it on a 35 GB partition created by Boot Camp. Out of 35 GB, Windows OS took 10.5 GB of disk space. Satisfied!

4 Stars Satisfied.
The OS installed flawlessly on my MacBook Air. No issues. Of note; the OS is delivered on DVD-ROM and not CD-ROM. I would ask Amazon to change their web-site info.

5 Stars Vista Home Premium with SP1 32-bit for System Builders - Review
Installed with little problem on HP laptop to replace the OEM 64-bit Vista OS that was incompatible with some of my most important apps (sucks).

It involved a bit more work updating the drivers and supporting bits, but it saved considerable money over buying the full version off the shelf.

3 Stars Window Vista Home Premium
This product is alright, I give it a 7 out of 10. Takes awhile to get use to. Some of the new flashy bells and whistle are unnecessary and takes up a chunk of memory. I use both Mac(graphic design) and PC(gaming). I can see how Vista is trying to integrate similar features of Mac OSX by trying to go all out on the visuals which is kind of cool and lame at the same time, if anything, Vista should have gone the simpler route. I love using XP because of its simplicity, I guess Vista is something that is forced upon us to get use to and maybe one day I’ll start liking it. I’m one of those guys that doesn’t like to be forced change when something isn’t broken and what makes me more skeptical is Windows 7 is coming out just around the corner(2009-2010). So what’s going to happen to Vista then? What gives Microsoft?
