Malware. An odd
sounding word created to lump all malicious software programs,
including viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, adware, and other
malevolent codes into one cause-your-computer-serious-hurt
category.
In 2005, Computer
Economics released a report on malware. The good news was that
for the first time since 2002, the total worldwide financial losses
from malware actually declined to a mere $14.2 billion. The bad
news was that the nature of malware was changing from overt threats to
more focused, covert attacks. This definitely is not great news for the
average computer user just trying to keep up with the hundreds of
malware programs that bombard us daily.
It’s not an easy
task keeping malware out of your computer system. In order to
accomplish this, you need a strong antivirus program. One such
program that can deliver the goods is ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite
6 from Zone Labs. Zone Labs is one of the most trusted brands in
Internet Security for good reason. Their product, simply put,
kicks serious malware gluteus maximus.
ZoneAlarm has received
more review recommendations that any other Internet-security software
suite because of its superb firewall and antivirus protection. It
blocks pop-up ads, protects against identify theft and provides
adequate spam filters that are flexible. It even beats the market
leader, Norton Internet Security, which is often criticized for
excessive system drag.
Its newest version includes these additional features:
Triple Defense Firewall
to prevent spyware from sending your information across the
Internet. It also makes your computer invisible to anyone on the
Net.
Smart Defense Advisor
which can automatically adjust your security settings for maximum
protection against the latest virus and spyware outbreaks.
Advanced Identify and Privacy Protection to prevent your personal data from leaving your computer without your approval.
The bonus for the average
user who cringes at the idea of setting-up one of these systems is that
the interface is easier to understand and use in comparison to most if
its competitors. If you choose to venture beyond the
out-of-the-box default settings, and install a more elaborate
filtering, know that this will require some additional time to set up
on your part.
Overall, ZoneAlarm
Internet Security Suite is a user-friendly, comprehensive security
solution that will have your computer safe from Internet hazards and
cyber criminals within minutes of installation.
