| ThreatExpert | Can detect viruses and other malware on your PC. Provides a "post-mortem" diagnostic to detect a range of high-profile threats that may be active in different regions of a computer’s memory. |
| ThreatFire | Protects against viruses, worms, trojans and other spyware, designed to be a complement to your current anti-virus software. ThreatFire does not need to know anything about a virus before it can protect you against it. This is because the program looks at the behaviour of an infected program (instead of the contents of the infected file). The basic version is free. Note from the editors: after testing the software we found that it generates a lot of false alarms on legitimate software. Nevertheless we think that this program can be useful provided you know how to interpret these alarms. |
