ewido security suite 3.5 [beta] Released

Advertisement (Why?)

Anti-Virus programs offer insufficient protection against urgently growing threats like Trojans, Worms, Dialers, Hijackers, Spyware and Keyloggers. Spyware can slow down, functionally impair or render your computer in an unstable condition making it almost useless! That's where the protection of the ewido security suite starts and supplements existing security applications to a complete security system, because only a complete security system works effectively.

You need to take it easy, my man. The average Neowinian should know what installing a beta release could potentially do.

#3.2 realogik on 30 May 2005 - 20:52

Be cool man, you know beta arent so bad, I never screw up my computer installing a beta and even if it does im sure everybody on Neowin know how to reinstall Windows. Or even, Install Norton GoBack 4.0 which let you install a software you wanna try and just Go Back before the installation if anything goes wrong. So please stop bitching and calling people Butthead and everything will be for the better !

Were cool

This is a great program for finding and getting rid of spyware and trojans. I have used the trial version to clean out other people's computers. It works really well.

#6 KillerMCB on 31 May 2005 - 01:01

Tried 3.0 of this and it is great! It can even remove spyware and trojans not found by adaware, spybot, nor Norton AV

#7 eilegz on 31 May 2005 - 01:16

I like how you can target which sections of your system you wish to scan such as registry, memory and of course your standard fast, complete, and custom scans.
