Norton Anti Virus 2006
Symantec's Norton AntiVirus 2006 is the world's most trusted antivirus solution.
- Norton AntiVirus detects and removes viruses, worms, and Trojan horses automatically - without interrupting your work.
- Defends against malicious code attempting to spread via email messages, instant message attachments, and other sources.
- Norton Internet Worm Protection defends your PC against certain worms that try to enter via direct Internet connections. It stops these worms (such as Blaster and Sasser) immediately, at the point of entry.
- Works in the background to protect email messages, instant message attachments, Internet downloads, and other files
- Norton AntiVirus can even detect viruses that have been hidden in file archives, and defend against certain threats before protection updates are available for them.

- Symantec's exclusive LiveUpdate technology checks for virus protection updates automatically, and the new QuickScan tool automatically searches for and removes viruses when new definitions are downloaded.

The best way to protect against the damage of viruses is to prevent its installation. Symantec extends its best of breed antivirus removal technology to handle the latest spyware and adware threats and handle the unique side effects of these threats (i.e., registry, processes, files, changes to LSPs) in real time. Norton AntiVirus blocks Home/ hijacking spyware before the user's web page can be redirected.
Adaptive Personalised Protection
The new Norton Protection Center is a common destination point that automatically/dynamically tailors itself to an individual user's preferences, behavior and environment to provide a personalized view of their computer protection status.
The new Norton Risk Assessment Model automatically removes dangerous programs without decisions required by the end user, but for those programs that may be tied to legitimate applications, Norton AntiVirus will guide the user though the steps required to safely protect desired applications from the dangerous programs. |
