F-Secure Software and Other Anti-Virus Software Applications Hacker Definition
A
comprehensive software security package that is slightly cheaper than its
immediate competitors from McAfee and Norton. Reviewers like its easy-to-use
user interface. On the negative side, F-Secure 2006 slows down the system boot
process and does not offer good spyware protection. The integration into
Microsoft Outlook, one of the most widely used email programs, falls short of
other products because of the lack of an anti-spam toolbar.
When F-Secure software encounters a virus, it launches a wizard to assist users in scanning their machines for viruses, to disinfect their machines, and to delete discovered viruses. Though F-Secures interface makes it fairly simple to initiate a scan, the software does not, unfortunately, contain a mechanism for scheduling scans at predetermined times.
