The Shield Deluxe 2008

icon The Shield Deluxe 2008 is one of the best tools available to protect your Windows computer from viruses and spyware. Powered by award-winning Kaspersky Labs technology, it is one of the most effective detectors of viruses and other malware. It is simpler and uses less resources than Kaspersky's current product, making it especially suitable for laptops and older computers.

Shield Deluxe 2008 - top class protection from viruses and spyware

The Shield Deluxe 2008 uses a combination of reactive antivirus and spyware detection methods (signature databases updated frequently via the Internet) and the latest proactive technologies (such as behavior blocking and heuristic analysis) to provide your computer with the most effective protection against malicious programs (generally known as malware.)

The software installs in a matter of minutes - and there is usually no need even to restart the computer. Once installed, you'll find it easy to use, with context sensitive help available to explain any function you aren't sure of. If you're an experienced user, however, you'll still find plenty of options to customize the program's operation.

Status monitors give a clear indication of your computer's protection level, and provide advice on dealing with potential threats.

The Shield Deluxe 2008 scans your incoming and outgoing emails for viruses. This basic protection is provided for any email program, while special plug-ins for Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express are also available.

To guard against rogue downloads and other malicious exploits, all web content downloaded by your browser is scanned for viruses in real-time, ensuring that malware is detected before it can be saved to your hard drive.

The Shield Deluxe monitors the activity of programs and processes in memory and watches for changes to the system registry. The program can alert you to any dangerous, suspicious or hidden processes ( such as rootkits) and attempts to make unauthorized changes.

Specially for laptop users, The Shield Deluxe 2008 has an economy mode that conserves battery power. The program has been optimized for use on laptops based on Intel Centrino mobile technology, and for use on computers with Intel processors that support Hyper-Threading technology. Virus database updates are small in size - a benefit for users using modems or using expensive mobile data connections that are charged by the megabyte.

If you are looking for dependable security protection for your PC then The Shield Deluxe 2008 is highly recommended. The product purchase price is a subscription qualifying you for updates and technical support for one year. No trial version is available for this product.
