3.0 out of 5 stars A Necessary Evil, But Better Options Are Available, July 26, 2009

By	Jorge J. Coelho (Dowingtown, PA USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Trend Micro Antivirus + Antispyware 2009 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

For me anti-virus software has always been a necessary evil. It's "blackbox magic" is something I've accepted as long as I don't experience either of the two major pitfalls: (1) extreme performance degradation of your system and (2) contraction of a virus. The problem I have is that unless you experience either of these issues you usually have no reason to complain.

Trend Micro AntiVirus' basic offering accomplishes the two major requirements I have of my anti-virus software.

I've been running the program for a few weeks now and I have not noticed any slow down in my system. I've also noticed that Trend Micro AntiVirus uses heuristic analysis to pick up on questionable actions taken by your PC. I noticed that when a scheduled online backup was about to take place, Trend Micro AntiVirus prompted me to make sure that it was okay to allow the program to continue. Then again, if I turned on the Windows Firewall I would have gotten the same end result. Windows would have alerted me that a program was trying to reach out to the Internet.

So, Trend Micro Antivus does a pretty good job of protecting your PC, but the problem I have is there are better options available for free. First, I am not a fan of either McAfee or Norton. I think these products have their place in a large company, but I feel like they consume too much system resources and slow down my PC. I am a fan of Microsoft's One Care and have recommended it to a number of people in the past, but Microsoft has decided to discontinue the product, so that's not a good route to take either.

Recently, I've enjoyed using AVG Free, which provides the same basic features as the Trend Micro AntiVirus, plus it adds in a few more web surfing options for free. The built-in link scanner (also available on one of Trend Micro's other offerings, but at a higher price tag) has been a life safer on a number of occasions. Sometimes search results can lead to websites that don't always have noble intentions. The link scanner has pointed out these sites to me on a number of occasions and I have yet to be misled. I've also used Avast! (another free program) in the past, but prefer AVG.

So in summary, if you're looking for a basic anti-virus program to protect your computer do the following:

* Skip purchasing this or any other basic anti-virus package
* Download AVG or Avast! for free and get more features than some of the standard paid offerings
* Browse the web with Firefox or turn on your Internet Explorer settings to the highest possible security level
* Use the NoScript add-on (Firefox only) and turn off all JavaScript by default, since you can always enable it as needed per site and the add-on will remember you selections. It can be a pain the first few weeks of use, but the chances of you contracting a virus are greatly reduced using this add-on.

If you want more than the basic anti-virus features, then I would suggest NOD32 or AVG Anti-virus Pro.

********* I received this product for free as part of the Amazon.com Vine program. Nonetheless, I review the product in the same manner as I would if I had purchased it myself. *********

2.0 out of 5 stars Trend Micro, boy have they lost their edge to the competition!, September 5, 2009

By	Terry Pick "Expert Mom!" (TN, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Trend Micro Antivirus + Antispyware 2009 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

Now let me preface this review by stating that we have, in the past, used & been quite content with Trend Micro updating annually to their latest version, that was until we tried out a few other ones! What can i say.......WOW, there is a HUGE difference!
Now that I have tried about every AntiVirus software from Kaspersky to McAfee and Trend Micro has got to be about the worst software out there. For example, Trend Micro uses 284MB of RAM, now Vipre will only use 67MB at the most! Also, Trend Micro will sometime find a virus and will not let you delete, or quarantine it. Also, it is INCREDIBLY SLOW! While running a scan on my 4GB of RAM computer, it reduced it's speed by over half! So in short, it does the job, but slowly, it misses trogans, worms, and presently almost any other virus software is better. (But I do recomend Kaspersky for our needs)
At one time Trend was number 1 in my book, but as with all tecnology, if you don't improve, someone else will.............& that is what has happened.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Anti-virus, great Anti-spyware, July 29, 2009

By	Dave (Portland) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Trend Micro Antivirus + Antispyware 2009 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

First off let's be clear: you are probably better off buying the entire suite from Trend Micro (or Norton, or McAfee, or whoever) so that you get a unified firewall, anit-spam, anti-virus, and anti spyware package. That being said if you have an older computer that tends to choke on those big suites and you have a hardware firewall (included in most wired or wireless routers) and you have the free Windows firewall turned on (in XP or Vista) then this would be a good option. Just make certain your turn on the anti-spam provided by most internet service providers (which conveniently, runs on their servers).

Now to this product:

If you need the very best Anti-virus protection this isn't for you. It's good, it's just not the best. If you really need the best you probably want Eset or McAfee. If you're okay with "decent" protection read on since Trend rates average for Anti-Virus detection and above average for scan speed (according to Consumer Reports).

If you need the best Anti-spyware then you probably want this product, or the Trend Micro Internet Security Suite. Trend ties with Norton for the best Anti-spyware. It also gets top marks overall for ease of use (as above, ratings are from CR).

In my own experience I've found the user interface really easy very simple to use and written in refreshingly plain language. I have this on my notebook and McAfee on my home server and with McAfee I'm always trying to figure out just what a given setting actually does. It might be powerful but users who are not very computer literate might not configure it correctly and end up worse off than if they have bought a less powerful but easier to use product like this one.
