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:
Ad-Aware's malware sandbox emulator intelligently analyzes possible threats by monitoring a potential threat in a virtual environment before it ends up on your computer. This prevents malware from ever actually doing damage on your computer. This process is done in the background. It does not require any user intervention. The Safe Browsing engine persistently checks newly browsed websites against a freshly updated list of known virus infected sites. The official Ad-Aware malware list is updated every 5-20 minutes. Ad-Aware Safe Browsing keeps you safe while you browse the web. Every new URL you visit is checked against a known blacklist of malicious sites. If you click on a dangerous link on accident then Ad-Aware Safe Browsing will immediately warn you. |
