Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security provides comprehensive and easy-to-use protection from viruses, hackers, and other Internet-based threats. Its new advanced features go far beyond standard antivirus and firewall protection, helping to safeguard your PC from new emerging threats like network viruses, spam email, inappropriate Web content, and Spyware programs that can compromise your privacy.
The new Network Virus Emergency Center provides the most advanced protection from today's fast-spreading network viruses such as MSBLAST, SOBIG, and Code Red. It proactively warns users about new network virus outbreaks and scans for these viruses at the network firewall level where they attempt to penetrate your PC. If network virus activity is detected it can automatically invoke the Internet Lock feature stopping the virus from infecting the PC and spreading to other computers.
PC-cillin Internet Security also now includes a powerful new anti-spam scanner that detects and flags annoying and potentially dangerous junk email. For people on the go, the Firewall Profiles feature allows you to quickly adjust security control levels for your different network environments such as home, work, Wi-Fi, and on the road. As always, Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security is backed by our award-winning technical support.
Key Features:
- Comprehensive virus detection and removal

Detailed Features:
Comprehensive Virus Detection and Removal
Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security helps make the detection and removal of viruses more precise and powerful. The enhanced Personal Firewall helps prevent intrusion from hackers and the new breed of Network Viruses. Trend Micro Damage Cleanup Services can now be triggered as soon as a virus is caught to keep your system functioning properly.
Enhanced Network Virus Protection
With the Network Virus Emergency Center, consumers can now get the same level of protection as big corporations from network viruses such as KLEZ, MSBLAST, and SOBIG. If a network virus is detected, Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security can automatically shut off the PC's network access, stopping the spread of the virus.
Integrated PDA Virus Protection
Viruses can infect your PC from multiple entry points such as removable media, Internet downloads, email, and PDA synchronization. Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security is designed to protect your PC at these entry points and includes wireless protection for Palm, Pocket PC, and Symbian EPOC-enabled devices.
Anti-Spam Filtering
Users can now configure Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security to identify and block unsolicited and junk emails. Filtering sensitivity can be set for high, medium, or low based on personal preference.
URL Filtering and Parental Control
Manage the sites your family can view with Parental Control, also known as URL Filtering. Permitted lists and restricted lists can block or allow connections to Web sites you deem appropriate.
Advanced Privacy and Spyware Protection
Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security helps prevent third parties from monitoring your Internet use and blocks malicious programs and Web sites from accessing your personal information. Spyware Protection is designed to detect and remove annoying Spyware programs from tracking your surfing behaviors, stealing passwords or account information, and creating dangerous back doors into your system.
Multiple Security Profiles
Your security needs and settings are different at home, at work, and on the road. Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security helps keep you protected by customizing the security settings for the environment you are in at any given time.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A blessing!,
By "residency" (Cupertino, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PC-cillin Internet Security 2004 [Old Box] (CD-ROM)
Yesterday, for the first time, I actually picked up a virus on my laptop. Now, you might think that it was my carelessness or opening an attachment that I wasn't suppose to. Nope... Basically, I got the virus because my (updated on daily basis) Norton antivirus software failed to do it's job. I was pretty bummed because I have so much on my laptop as a physician and besides I lecture at a university and have all my lectures on my laptop in PowerPoint format. The way I found out my laptop was actually infected was not by Norton but by a reading a warning email sent to me from my workplace, originating from Trend Micro (parent company of Pc-Cillin.) Well, most of us have never even heard of Trend Micro and it's a shame because if it wasn't for these guys I would have had been typing this on my desktop not my laptop! After spending $50 for a Norton antivirus software I was expecting a bit of "security" at least. Well, not only did I not get that, once Norton actually found the virus 10 hrs later, it said that it couldn't delete, repair or quarantine the file, which simply means the virus was alive and well! I went to Trend Micro's site, and although I was not a customer then, they had FANTASTIC removal instructions, information on the virus and an automated repair file for download, ALL LESS THAN 2 HOURS AFTER THE VIRUS BROKE LOOSE! Now, I don't know about you but I was VERY impressed that I was able to get rid of the virus by using their tools WITHOUT having to pay one penny. That did it for me... I deleted my Norton and bought a digital download copy of Pc-cillin and it is working GREAT! Now about the software: 2. Setup: What setup?! It pretty much comes with all sorts of settings suitable for most of us and instead of a couple small things I didn't have to do anything else. 3. User interface: B-e-a-Utiful! Very easy to use, fast to load (unlike Norton) and plenty of customizations. 4. Personal Firewall: If you don't know what a firewall is, then I will just say that it is something you MUST have to keep hackers out of home or home/office network. This wonderful piece of software at just $50 comes with a personal firewall! One of the greatest things about this software is that Trend Micro will send you information on new viruses within minutes or hours of it first coming out. It will "silently" update your virus definition and in real-time scans your machine. It is much faster and does not hog so much system resources like Norton. Hope this helps!

This review is from: PC-cillin Internet Security 2004 [Old Box] (CD-ROM)
This program combines anti-virus protection with a firewall, anti-spam and spyware protection It is a great program, but it will not load properly if you previously used Norton Anti-Virus or Internet Security.

Avoid NIS 2004!!! PC-cillin Iinternet Security is a must!!!,
By jdpao4 (Allen, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PC-cillin Internet Security 2004 [Old Box] (CD-ROM)
I had Norton Internet Security 2003 and it worked great...one of the features that I liked was the user interface as well as the ad/pop-up blocking feature along w/the logs on internet usage. I read many reviews on Norton I.S. 2004 from a variety of sources (Cnet, Amazon, message boards) and came to the conclusion that NIS 04 was a terrible product and not worth the update. In January of 2004, I renewed my subscription service for NIS 2003 but on Jan 7, everything changed. There was a Verisign problem that conflicted w/Word and Excel and was posted on the Symantec site that affected computers. The Symantec site said it didn't affect NIS but I believe it did. I also believe that when I renewed my subscription service that Symantec uploaded the NIS 2004 patch. All of a sudden everything that reviewers were writing about NIS 2004 was happening to my computer. Booting up my computer took forever!!! Then, my ad/pop-up blocking was completely gone. My file log was not responding and the program was not blocking any cookies or unauthorized sites. After extensive researching on the Symantec site I broke down and called Symantec. Again, every review written about the Tech Line is true...after waiting close to 45 minutes I finally spoke to a rep. I had to pay $29.95 just to go any further. After telling the rep and his tech supervisor the problem the only answer was to uninstall the program (which I had already done)...They sent me a link to their website to follow instructions on ridding my registry of all Symantec products so I could get a clean re-install. They didn't know what the problem could be. They said to call back if it still didn't work after the complete uninstall. I did it and it was worse the second time around...unbelievable. I gave up. Basically, I ate the cost of the renewal and ate the cost of the Tech Help. After reading reviews of PC-cillin Internet Security by Trend Micro, I decided to give it a try. After downloading the program, I turned around and bought it. This is a great product. My computer immediately boots up, the program doesn't go through ridiculous scans and gives me the opportunity to download new updates. The program cost $49.95 but if you area previous owner of a Norton Anti Virus or Internet Security product and show proof then they will give you a $25 rebate. Needless to say, I mailed my NIS 2003 disk along w/the rebate form to them. In conclusion, Symantec has turned a long time user into a lost customer forever. They got my last dollar. I've gone to work and told colleagues about PC-cillin Internet Security and to spend their money on this program. Needless to say, Norton not only lost me but three of my co-workers to Trend-Micro. Please, save your money...don't go through what I did. Also, read the reviews from other sites also...I recommend Cnet, Amazon, and others....Please avoid NIS 2004!!! You'll be glad you did!!!!
