We installed this security solution on a Windows XP SP2 ma-chine, which was

already infected with some common virusesand spyware. This solution successfully

detected and deleted allofthem. Further, we took a USB pen drive that had

approximately9000 viruses; most ofthem were self-executable files, zipped,zipped

up to 2nd level, and some macro viruses. We ran anti-virusscan on this drive and

were able to delete approximately 95% ofviruses. For checking its antispam

capabilities we placed our spamcollection onto our test mail server and started

downloading it tothe machine, which had this software installed on it. It could

de-tect around 60% ofspams, which is less compared to the QuickHeal Total

Security 2007 that detected 75-80% ofspams. But thissolution learns with time.

For checking its Firewall capabilities weran Nessus and this one showed zero

vulnerability, compared toNorton 360 (reviewed October 2007) in which Nessus

showedone open vulnerable port. We also exposed this security softwareto DOS

attack and the Arpspoof(for IPSdetection) attack. It successfully detected and

blocked the DOS attack, but was not ableto detect the Arpspoofattack.

BOTTOMLINE: At this price and with these

features, a best option for safeguarding your system against vulnerabilities
