ThreatFire™ protects when your antivirus can't

This is an upgraded version of what was (is) CyberHawk pro with extras.

It is still beta, but it does appear to be very stable, in fact if performs far better on my pc then either Cyberhawk or Prevx.

PCs are under attack. Viruses. Spyware. Identity Theft. Every day you hear about a new threat. They're coming faster than ever, and they're getting harder to stop.
Will your antivirus catch the latest virus that just came out today? No. It doesn't know how to recognize it yet. But ThreatFire's ActiveDefense technology does.

How ThreatFire™ Works
ThreatFire's ActiveDefense technology hunts down and paralyzes threats that are too new or too clever to be recognized by traditional security software.
ThreatFire uses behavioral analysis to detect malicious computer activity. Traditional antivirus relies on old fashioned "signature" technology that needs to be updated every time a new threat occurs.
ThreatFire HighlightsPersistent zero-day threat protection made easy for everyone — even novice users!

Perpetually ready for the next malware outbreak, with no signature updates required.

Runs in background without impacting system performance.


NEW! ThreatFire now includes advanced protection features including malware quarantine and removal, rootkit scanner and custom rules settings in both the Free and Pro versions.

Patent-pending ActiveDefense technology intelligently scans and analyzes computer processes to detect and block any malicious activity — without false positives!

Highest level of out-of-the-box accuracy. No need to configure baffling, technical security settings: just turn ThreatFire on and start blocking malware.

Protects against both known and zero-day viruses, worms, trojans, buffer overflows, rootkits and even some spyware.

Works alongside your current security programs — there is no need to uninstall your antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall or other security program before installing ThreatFire.

NEW! ThreatFire Pro includes PC Tools AntiVirus’s on-demand AV scanner, giving you added peace of mind so you can quickly and easily scan your PC for known threats.

    Thanks. Have just got talktalk broadband and their disk has opened up my pc to loads of nasties .... six days in and still clearing the malware! Hopefully having this in the background will help clear out the last of the gremlins.
