Cool Features:
Trend Micro features browser extensions that do a decent job of steering you clear of malicious websites. Their Folder Shield component protects a folder from ransomware by preventing any changes to that folder's contents by unauthorized programs. The Secure Erase feature enables permanent deletion of files. The PC Health checkup scans for unneccessary files, problematic Registry entries, and other optimizations including finding duplicate files.

Cool Features:
Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) is a free antivirus download which works on Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. Windows 8 has a feature called Windows Defender which is the same as Microsoft Security Essentials but you do not need to download it as it is built in. Microsoft Security Essentials is a plain solution which is better than nothing but in general is significantly outperformed by any of the commercial antivirus solutions reviewed on this website. MSE will detect some viruses but not near the success rate as other commercial solutions. We suggest Avira, Avast, AVG or ZoneAlarm free editions if you absolutely need free antivirus. |
