Latest generation antivirus

Automatically detects and eliminates all types of viruses.
If content is missing from your hard disk, if you have problems starting your computer, or if some of your files are unusable, you can be sure you've been hit by a computer virus. You can be infected just by surfing the Net, downloading a file, or opening an email attachment. There are also the dangers of worms and Trojans which now use new stealth techniques to evade detection. With Panda Antivirus 2008 you can use the Internet and download or share files in the knowledge that you are fully protected against all types of viruses, worms and Trojans. Forget about infections.

Check system memory and every file in the disk to find any threat such as virus, trojans, worms, spyware, dialers, hacking tools, jokes and security risks.

Panda Antivirus 2008 can identify fraudulent emails, and prevent you from revealing your bank details, account numbers or other confidential information.

Powerful AntiSpyware

Keeps your PC free from spyware.
Computer slowdowns, annoying and aggressive pop-up ads, sudden changes to your system settings... these are just some of the effects that spyware can have on your PC. The real danger however is that these threats can steal information about your Internet activity and then use it without your knowledge. Panda Antivirus 2008 detects and completely removes spyware and other annoying programs automatically. Safeguard your privacy.

AntiPhishing

Protects against online fraud.
Certain emails are designed to trick you into revealing your confidential bank details. They may appear to have been sent from your bank, but they have not. Falling into the trap can be costly: it could give the phishers complete access to your accounts. Panda Antivirus 2008 can identify these fraudulent emails, and prevent you from revealing your bank details, account numbers or other confidential information. Panda Antivirus 2008 will keep you safe from these dangerous scams. Bank and shop online with complete peace of mind.

Protection against dangerous websites

Prevents access to websites harboring threats.
Many infections occur simply when you visit a certain web page. Panda Antivirus 2008 recognizes dangerous web pages and prevents you from opening them and becoming infected. This feature is particularly effective against certain types of spyware and online fraud. Surf the Internet safely.

AntiRootkit

Detects threats that try to hide on your PC.
Rootkits can be used to hide threats and prevent them from being detected by security solutions. These threats can then act with impunity on your system. With Panda Antivirus 2008 you won't have any problem, as its reinforced protection system can detect threats that use this stealth technique. Protect yourself from hidden threats.

In-depth online scanning
Scan in-depth your PC with TotalScan Pro. The new Panda TotalScan Pro is an online scanner that allows you to periodically scan in-depth your PC seeking any kind of malicious software. It checks system memory and every file in the disk to find any threat such as virus, trojans, worms, spyware, dialers, hacking tools, jokes and security risks.

Automatic daily updates
Every day more than 2000 new threats appear. But don’t worry. Panda Antivirus 2008 automatically updates at least once a day to keep you permanently protected.

Feel safe at all times.

This review is from: Panda Antivirus 2008 (CD-ROM)

WOW, there is nothing bad that I could say about this software. I have been running the lite version of this since 2007 when it first came out and am amazed on the protection that it has given me over the free anti virus software that I was used to. I always tell people that the free versions out there are just gimmicks to get you to believe that you are protected. Once you actually put something on your system designed to sift thru the mess and find threats like Panda AntiVirus 2008 does you will never look back. I have also installed this on my vista system recently and don't see a drop of performance like I did with the other software out there for viruses and spyware. If you are looking for something easy and powerful for the computer novice in your life, this is the one to choose.
