Symantec has killed off the script blocker in Norton Anti-Virus 2006 because the company said the technology is no longer necessary. However, security experts disagree with the reasons behind the move.
A French security researcher, who published exploit codes that could take advantage of bugs in an antivirus application, could be imprisoned for violation of copyright laws.
It's that time of year again, with security companies releasing their 2009 range. This gallery gives you an insight into Trend Micro's offering.
Late last week Trend Micro released its Internet Security 2009 and Internet Security Pro 2009 products, touting enhanced performance, features and better end-user education.
Microsoft has said it will release a patch at the end of January that should fix all the problems introduced by a recent update to its Windows Live OneCare security software.
As we embark on a new year, the industry hype-machine is slowly warming up to sell us new technologies that will make our jobs easier in 2007. Rest assured though that some problems will remain, like spam.
Today, Symantec released Norton 360 Version 2.0, but I wonder whether the security giant has learned from its past mistakes?
Symantec is about to launch Norton 360 in Australia and although the product seems to have some interesting features, it will take more than marketing hype to persuade me that the company has stopped making bloated and unreliable software.
Norton Internet Security 2009 hits all the right security notes and its superior protection technologies might even win back some jaded anti-Symantec folks. We take you on a tour.
Norton AntiVirus 2006 improves its detection and removal of spyware and adware but lags behind the more proactive McAfee VirusScan 2006.
With VirusScan 2006, McAfee greatly enhances user protection against spyware and adware threats but slows your system down in the process.
Security software vendors may soon side with US government authorities and intentionally fail to report "certain spyware" to customers if ordered by a court to remain quiet, according to a survey of leading firms.
Being inundated with spam e-mail is annoying enough, but it can be downright problematic when its affecting productivity and diverting staff attention. We look at one SMB's successful battle with spam and a few security solutions that might come in handy.
Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 provides adequate protection, but the program itself could use some work in telling the user what's going on.
We look at eight mail-server plugins designed to make sure your servers don't take a beating the next time one comes along.
It's not really an option to omit virus protection, but which vendor should you entrust your protection to? We test two of the leading candidates.
If e-mail security is giving you headaches, before you turn to voodoo magic, try one of these hardware appliance solutions.
You can't beat the price. For a good, basic internet security suite, we recommend Trend Micro Internet Security 2009.
