New Update

Quick Heal Anti Virus 2007 provides protection against Internet threats, and

is easy to configure and use. It comes as a 3-in-1 protection—an anti virus, an

anti spyware and a Firewall. It brings with it, the DNAScan Technology, which

works on the techniques of deep code inspection with code analysis. It also

comes with a new version of Quick Heal Personal Firewall, Quick Heal Firewall

Professional Pro. The Firewall interface gives detailed information about

network activity, all that has been blocked by it and all allowed. We tested it

against latest viruses, malware, spyware and also checked its Firewall with

attacks such as nmap, DOS attack and arpspoof. We first installed the viruses on

to the system and then installed the anti virus. Once we ran the virus scan, it

detected all the viruses and deleted them. We attacked the system with DOS

attack and nmap, and it detected both of them. Even though it could not exactly

determine the type of the attack, it blocked the attack nevertheless. But unlike

F-Secure Internet Security 2007 reviewed in March issue of PCQuest (page 134) it

could not detect the arpspoof attack. It maintains a complete log report of all

network activity for good. We configured a mail account in Outlook Express and

sent some spam mail to it. It detected 70-80 percent of it.
