Ik gebruik nog steeds PC-cillin 2002.. Zat toendertijd gratis bij een moederbord wat ik kocht. Kan het op een onbeperkt aantal pc's installeren (zo lijkt het iig

), nog steeds gratis engine en patern updates (eens per 2 dagen een nieuwe patern ofzo), en het is super licht

Als de engine regelmatig geupdate wordt, wat is dan trouwens het voordeel van een nieuwere versie qua het vinden van virussen? als het goed is niet zo veel toch?
Hier staan wat kenmerken van de PC-cillin Internet Security 12 versie:

Of zoals men zelf zegt:
Trend Micro's PC-cillin 2005 is an excellent Anti-Virus software product. This is a great choice for those beginners that haven't delved into the Anti-Virus/Firewall world. It is extremely easy to install and easy to use. What really stands out in PC-cillin is that it is the only product reviewed that included a firewall. Most firewalls cost in-between $40.00 to $60.00 by themselves. When you factor in that PC-cillin includes Anti-Virus, firewall, PDA, and wireless protection, all in one product, you can't beat the price. McAfee and Norton have both been the dominant players in the marketplace, but Trend Micro's PC-cillin has surpassed both products.
Feature Set:
PC-cillin anti-virus protection features an integrated firewall, a WebTrap that blocks malicious Java and ActiveX programs, a MacroTrap that monitors Excel and Word files for viruses, and a Site Filter that allows you to block access to specific web sites.
For email, PC-cillin scans both POP3 accounts and Webmail. PC-cillin automatically cleans infected files, but if a file can't be cleaned, the software will place the file in quarantine. You can configure PC-cillin to prompt you every time an infected file is discovered so you can immediately consider your options.
PC-cillin also provides mobile users the extra protection needed to stay virus-free on the road, including Wi-Fi connection security for your wireless protection and PDA synchronization protection.
PC-cillin has included a new spyware removal tool into their latest set of features. They also included a few more options such as a vulnerability checker, home network control, and anti-phishing. Phising is when someone uses a fraudulent website or fake e-mails to trick you into thinking they came from your bank, or credit card company for the purpose of obtaining your personal financial data. Their new Anti-Phising feature will make it harder for these e-mails to reach you.
Ease of Use:
The product has a well-designed, logical user interface, although the main screen graphics are out of alignment in a couple of places. The performance is great and doesn't slow down the rest of your system. A very large folder, 1 gigabyte, will take about 2 minutes to scan.
Ease of Installation & Setup:
PC-cillin has two modes of operation: standard mode for beginners who want to install and walk away knowing they are protected, and advanced mode for those techies that want to be able to review and adjust every setting, review logs, or work with quarantined files.
Help/Documentation:
Trend Micro provides toll-free phone support, the only Anti-Virus software manufacturing to do so. They also have great support with their support page, Knowledge Base Search, and FAQs page.
Effectiveness:
In Virus Bulletin's tests with live viruses, previous versions of PC-cillin earned the coveted VB100% percent rating in five of its six most recent Windows tests. The built-in scheduler has three default scans preset. You can edit or delete these defaults in order to personalize scanning tasks targeting specific file types, drives or dates.
Summary:
Overall, PC-cillin is an excellent easy-to-use anti-virus software product. With the inclusion of the firewall and the low price point taken into consideration, this could easily be the best overall product in the marketplace.
Heb zelf ook weleens met dit programma gewerkt. Vind het een goed pakket. Het vraagt niet véél resources en het scannen gaat snel.
