Trend Micro AntiVirus
Font size:
Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware is a customizable program that works well out of the box. The real-time Internet protection is the real strength here, but it leaves much to be desired in its virus and malware scanning and removal ability.
The interface is smooth and runs fairly quickly without getting in the way too much. The spam filter was okay at picking up ads and separating spam mail, and overall it was decent monitoring Internet activity. New threats and unknown threats may be an area of improvement, as well as the overall ability to identify certain known spyware applications that are already on your computer.
I don’t think that I would want to pay $39.95 for this product, the price seems a little high for what you actually get. It is a decent product, but not one that is as fine tuned as competitors. We felt that the scanner was not as efficient at cleaning up a corrupted system.
Although we felt it was not as good at detection as others, it is good for maybe a more advanced user that likes to use different browsers, IM’s, and email clients. This is also good for a multi-user computer such as in a classroom or library, as it will be compatible with a wide range of programs on the Internet. If configuration and file clean up is your thing, you can find a better overall solution that is not just geared towards Internet security mostly.
