2008-Sep-11 - STOPzilla! Review

STOPzilla! Review

STOPzilla! is an well packaged and attractive product which has seen steady improvements with each new release. Unfortunately, the protection it provides against spyware is still lacking.

Usability

STOPzilla! installed without a hitch directly from their website, even on our heavily infested test PC. After a re-boot, STOPzilla! was ready to scan for the first time.

STOPzilla! kicked off a scan automatically the first time we ran it. The confusing array of dialog windows found in previous versions have been replaced with a single window that can be used to access all of the products functions. The main tab ("Home") now contains a prominent "Start Scan Now" button, along with other buttons for quick access to common features, as well as some basic statistics about the program itself (version #, last scan, etc).

We found the interface to be very attractive and pleasing to the eye. The scan results screen in particular is well-laid out and very easy-to-understand. One problem, however, is that it tends to overstate the number of infections found. Instead of counting each malware program as a single infection, it counts each file, registry setting, and cookie. This leads to a highly inflated detection count which does not correlate to the actual health of one's PC.

Spyware Removal

Scanning was fast, taking 18 minutes on our first benchmark server. We tested STOPzilla! on four different PCs, each containing different types of malware commonly found on the internet. It detected 44% of the spyware in our test and disabled 26% of it. However, it only fully removed 11% of the threats on our PCs, which caused the program to detect the same spyware over on subsequent runs.

One area where STOPzilla! stands out is that it does a much better job of removing browser toolbars than other programs we've tested against. If you have a stubborn toolbar, this product may be worth purchasing for this reason alone.

Rollback

STOPzilla! allows you to rollback any changes made to your system if necessary. This feature can be found on the Scan Results screen. On the "Removed" tab, click the "Restore" button at the bottom of the window.

Customer Support

STOPzilla! offers online and email customer support. Telephone support is also available at 1-877-877-9944 during typical US business hours.

Other Options

STOPzilla! includes some additional protection features, such as memory monitoring, homepage protection, and the ability to block popup, javascript dialog windows, and windows messenger spam. Version 5.0 also introduces the much-needed ability to schedule scans to run during off-hours.

The popup blocker included with STOPzilla! is one of the better ones we've seen in any anti-spyware product. It not only provides you with a list of popups, but you can also look at screenshots of the popups to see exactly what was blocked. Neat.

Summary

STOPzilla! continues to show steady improvement with each new release. While the program stands out in ease-of-use and the ability to remove browser toolbars, the overall level of protection is still somewhat lacking.

Tenebril SpyCatcher 2007 automates the removal process and helps you distinguish between good and bad programs, enabling you to remove programs with confidence.

2008-Sep-5 - BitDefender Internet Security 2008

BitDefender Internet Security 2008

BitDefender was an excellent performer among security suites, but it's best for experts who don't need guidance regarding security extras and pop-up alerts and who don't mind therough interface.

BitDefender Internet Security 2008 ($40 for one PC, $50 for three PCs) pairs shining success with disappointing failure. It outperformed every other suite in crucial malware detection tests, unmasked every rootkit sample.

But this stellar performance behind the scenes was seriously marred by an unpleasant user experience. From aggravations with the initial installation to difficulties with warning pop-ups, BitDefender Internet Security 2008flaws are hard to brush off.

BitDefender Internet Security 2008 did extremely well when subjected to AV-Test.org's 674,589 inactive malware samples, detecting 98 percent of them. It also did the best job of detecting new, unknown malware in heuristics tests, with a 29 percent catch rate using one-month-old signatures. And it also tied for first with Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 for the fastest response (0 to 2 hours) to malware outbreaks.

BitDefender Internet Security 2008 firewall successfully masked a protected PC against outside scans, but it displayed needless warnings when the Firefox Web browser tried to access the Internet. That program should be on any firewall's list of known (and approved) applications.

The suite offers a good array of secondary features, including antiphishing, parental controls, antispam, and data privacy. But these extras need polish. The browser-based antiphishing tool didn't block any sites until I enabled the feature's heuristic detection, which is off by default. When I enabled parental control for other users, I wasn't prompted to set a program password--but if you fail to do so and you set up your kids' accounts with administrator rights, they'll be able to turn off the parental controls.

BitDefender Internet Security 2008 warning pop-ups did a poor job of guiding us through the steps of removing a detected e-mail worm (Warezov). The pop-up alert had options for ignoring, quarantining, or deleting the file. But perhaps because ther malware was lurking inside a .zip file, the security suite's default option was to ignore the infection. Choosing to quarantine the archive failed, but rather than alerting me to the failure. the program just popped up the same window without the quarantine option. Choosing delete finally worked.

If BitDefender Internet Security 2008 interface and warnings were anywhere near as good as its virus detection engine, the suite would be easy to recommend. But its confusing pop-ups, program bugs, and high false positive rate make it best suited to a user who has strong technical skills and can at times make the right security choices without guidance from the software.

2008-Sep-4 - PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0

PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0

PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 Capabilities
PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 permanently and easily deletes all of the following file types, and more never to be restored again!

• deleted files
• chat transcripts
• audio and video files
• temporary internet files
• image files (all formats)
• clipboard data
• search histories
• passwords
• internet history
• cookies
  

PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 deletes index.dat
Index.dat is a file used by the Internet Explorer web browser. The index.dat file functions as an active database, which runs as long as Windows is active. It functions as a repository of redundant information, such as web URLs, search queries, and recently opened files. Its role is similar to that of an index file in the field of databases, where a technique called "indexing" stores the contents of a database in a different order to help speed up query responses. Similarly, when the Autocomplete function is enabled in Internet Explorer, every web address visited is sorted in the index.dat file, allowing the Internet Explorer to attempt to find an appropriate match when a user types in an edit field. Separate index.dat files exist for the Internet Explorer history, cache, and cookies. from Wikipedia

Why do you need PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 ?
Because your Windows Recycle bin only deletes the file that you see ... not the actual data on your harddrive. However, until the file location on your hard disk is overwritten many times, the files can be completely recovered using many available computer programs, or even simple computer commands. Deleted files are the first thing hackers, privacy thiefs, and other computer experts look for when they are trying to recover sensitive information from your computer or discarded disks. Employers routinely search for 'deleted' files to discover information about employees.

The PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 Shred Method
PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 shreds files using the most advanced, ‘military-grade’ data deletion methods available. Indeed, the shred method used by PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 (5022.22M ) have been approved for use by both the U.S. Department of Defense (D.o.D.) and the U.S. National Security Agency (N.S.A.). PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 performs ALL tasks required by the above agencies when shredding and our proprietary shred-engine is fast.

Product features:

• Unlimited Shredding
  Most competitor products limit the user to only 1, or to a fixed number of data wipes when shredding. WinShredder permits an UNLIMITED number of data wipes. Want to shred that file 10000 times? No problem!
• Unlimited 'Do Not Shred' Folder Locations
  A serious flaw in most competitor products is the inability to protect important folders from accidental shredding. This disastrous problem is solved with PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0. PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 permits an unlimited number of 'Do Not Shred' folder locations to be defined, protecting them from accidental shredding.
• Drag and Drop to the Desktop Trashcan
  PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 supports all Windows drag and drop features. You can Shred files or folders simply by dragging them to the desktop WinShredder Trashcan.
• True Windows Explorer Integration (Right mouse-click menu integration)
  PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 integrates with all versions of the Windows operating system and appears as a new 'Delete with WinShredder' menu option, complete with icon, when right mouse-clicking on a file or folder.
• Optional Instant Shredding
  Turn on the 'Instant Shred' option and you can start the shred process instantly just by dragging files to the desktop PCSecurityShield WinShredder 2.0 trash can.
• No 'lock-ups' while Shredding
  Many competitor products lock up your computer while they are shredding files. While they are shredding files, you cannot move your mouse or open another program, or, your mouse is jerky and intermittent. Not WinShredder! You can continue to work while shredding is underway, seamlessly and smoothly.

PCSecurityShield MyRegistryCleaner is a comprehensive registry repair and optimization tool. Its easy-to-use interface makes it simple for novice users to defrag their computers and the advanced options and settings provide tech-savvy users the control they require in configurations.

System and Registry Backup
Registry Backup may be useful in case you want to save registry information for later use. If you happen to re-install your Windows OS, this tool will help you tune your registry and leave all programs and other vital settings functional. System Backup is useful when you want to perform a rollback to the previous state of your Windows. For example, you may want to create restore points before doing any major changes to your registry. Restore points can then be used to reproduce the previous state of your Windows OS.

Quick and Smart Scan
The Smart Scan does a full scan of all of your registry files and your hard drives to locate any possible issues. Use the Quick Scan to conduct a scan of your registry files and system folders.

Automatic and Manual Repair
You can choose to fix all of the problems detected or select individual errors for repair. PCSecurityShield MyRegistryCleaner will repair invalid application paths, uninstall information, COM/ActiveX objects, help files, file extensions, font files, most recently used files list, shared DLLs and folders, startup applications, Windows/MS-DOS shortcuts, and more. The automatic repair function enables any person, regardless of their technical level, to solve registry problems by simply pressing a button. Advanced users can opt to make registry changes manually.

Complete Registry Defrag
When a registry entry is removed it’s marked as being empty but is never actually removed. Registry defrag simply removes these blank entries, which makes the registry hive smaller so it will take up less memory. With a fragmented registry your system will take longer to boot, and programs will take longer to start up. The built-in scheduler enables easy scheduling of automated defrags.

Optimize Your PC
Cleans Windows add/remove software list, manages startup programs, checks for obsolete start menu items, scans for invalid program shortcuts, uninstall information, and most recently used files.

ActiveX Protection
ActiveX applications are able to view, modify, and delete any file on your computer. These applications are usually installed through your Web browser and there is no easy way to remove them. By inserting specific wordvalues within your registry called "Compatibility Flags" PCSecurityShield MyRegistryCleaner blocks any harmful ActiveX programs from installing onto your computer.

Product features

Antivirus Protection
Protection for email. The Shield Deluxe 2008 scans email traffic for viruses according to the protocol via which it is sent (POP3, IMAP and NNTP for incoming mail and SMTP for outgoing mail) on any mail program, while plug-ins and treatment for viruses in Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express mail databases are offered.

Scanning of Internet traffic. All HTTP Internet traffic is scanned for viruses in real-time, ensuring that infected objects are not saved to the computer’s hard disk.

Protection for file systems. Individual files, catalogues and disks can be designated for antivirus scanning. Users can limit antivirus scanning to critical areas of the operating system and startup objects to ensure that attention is focused on the most vulnerable areas of the system.

Proactive Protection
Control over changes in the file system. With The Shield Deluxe 2008 it is possible to compile lists of applications, the component structure of which will be controlled, thus helping to prevent malicious programs from undermining the integrity of the application.

Monitors processes in the memory. The Shield Deluxe 2008 monitors the activity of programs and processes that have been launched in the computer’s memory and, at the same time, warns users of any dangerous, suspicious or hidden processes (that is, rootkits ), and of unauthorized changes in routine processes.

Monitors changes in the operating system registry. The Shield Deluxe 2008 controls the status of the system registry and notifies users of any suspicious objects or attempts to create hidden keys in the registry.

Blocks dangerous macros. Proactive protection affords control over the operation of macros based on Visual Basic for Applications in Microsoft Office documents and blocks dangerous macro-commands from being executed.

System restore. The system can be restored after malicious activity. The Shield Deluxe 2008 can roll back any changes made to the system by malicious programs. Fast operating speeds
Technology for accelerated antivirus scanning. iSwift and iChecker technology make it possible to limit scanning to new and modified files, or to limit scanning to potentially dangerous objects only. Antivirus scanning can be suspended during times of increased user activity to ensure that your computer’s resources are free for your use.

Reduced update sizes. The size of updates downloaded to users’ PC has been reduced almost 10 times (now amounting to several tens of kilobytes) in The Shield Deluxe 2008 , making our updates virtually instant.

2008-Sep-4 - BitDefender Antivirus 2008

BitDefender Antivirus 2008

BitDefender Antivirus 2008 is perhaps the most improved of the antivirus applications we've seen so far this year.

Still, for the price, and for the excellent quality of its antivirus protection, BitDefender Antivirus 2008 ranks among our few top contenders for 2008.

BitDefender Antivirus 2008 costs $24.95 for a single license and $29.95 for a three-user license.

BitDefender Antivirus 2008 opts for a no-nonsense interface. Should there be any security issues, one of the large icons will display red. For remediation there's a large Fix This button, or you can click the specific graphic to see what's wrong.

BitDefender Antivirus 2008 covers a lot of ground, protecting your system from viruses, spyware, privacy breaches, phishing attacks, and rootkits. And BitDefender is the only antivirus product we've seen that advertises a Gamer mode, minimizing protection alerts and resources while you're off playing games.

For instance, with antivirus scans, the default setting scans files during boot, recently accessed files, packed files (although not archived files), incoming and outgoing e-mails--so far so good. The only difference with the more aggressive setting available is the addition of scanning activity on port 80 and port 443. BitDefender's HTTP scan blocks malicious ActiveX and JavaScript, and is part of the antivirus and antispyware protection. Do you need that? Again, there is not enough guidance within the program to help users make that decision; most browsers offer add-ons that will also screen for these scripts.

As for the default privacy protection, BitDefender will look for instances of private information leaving the computer and guard against spyware attempting to install on the machine. The more aggressive setting adds cookie control and script protection, which most browsers will also allow you to control. Do you need this protection if your browser already provides similar protection? Again, BitDefender doesn't offer enough guidance within the program to help users make that decision. Most browsers offer free add-ons that will screen for these scripts as well.

BitDefender provides a fairly complete package of technical support for its antivirus product. Greatly improved from last year is the built-in help file, although it would be nice if it were also context sensitive so that when we have a question about the Identity Pirvacy feature, the help file opens on that section immediately. BitDefender also offers an online Getting Started document, but we found its intended audience to be the Internet security suite users, not those starting out with just the antivirus product. BitDefender also delivers an adequate online FAQ, and there are several active user forums.

Finally, you can e-mail or call a toll-free number, 888-868-1873, for live technical support.
