4014590867 9e64d0f3d4 m Fix It Utilities ProfessionalIn these times we can’t let our PCs loose with an internet connection without having some sort of protection. This is where antivirus software comes in to play and why it is so popular today. Fix-It Utilities Professional sets out to accomplish this goal and we got our hands on it to test it. If you are thinking about purchasing a new antivirus program then this review could be worth reading.

The whole point of this software is to save you time and money by combining numerous useful tools together into an all-in-one package. This is something we always like to see because most of us live on a budget and even if you don’t you most likely don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars to protect every aspect of your PC. What Fix-It Utilities Pro offers is protection in the form of an antivirus, antispyware, PC diagnostics, and repair. Of course this all means nothing to us without us testing it so that is exactly what we did. We loaded up Fix-It Utilities Pro on a few different test PCs with different problems that we planted on each one. Our first PC was loaded up with quite a few serious viruses so we were most anxious to test this PC. We ran the test and every single virus was detected and cleaned up. This impressed us because some of the viruses we had on the PC would become even more dangerous as time progressed. The second PC we had going was loaded up with over 100 different types of spyware.

4015355346 8ea1a78220 m PC Tools AntivirusThis is one of the lesser known antivirus products out there. However, you should never rule out software just because the name isn’t well-known. In fact, a lot of software out there like this can usually do a perfect job while offering prices that are half that of the ones that pop into your head when you think of virus protection. So does PC Tools Antivirus hold up and take care of business? That’s exactly what we wanted to find out so we put it to the test and here is our review.

First off, the interface is really nice. We found that it is extremely user friendly and can be used by basic and advanced users alike. The great interface would be worth nothing if the program didn’t function properly so we quickly moved on to the next task. We planted numerous viruses on a few different test PCs and installed PC Tools Antivirus on each of them as well. We ran the scan and it found the threats very quickly. In fact, the scan process itself was much faster than that a lot of the previous programs we have tested. Normally we can start a scan, go make a sandwich, and then come back to watch it scan while we eat. Now the scan wasn’t lightning fast or anything, but it is worth noting that it is faster than most. It also didn’t slow down our system performance as significantly as others do. We were impressed by the careful coding they obviously put into the software. Read the rest of this entry »

4015355330 40179c1296 m CA Anti Virus Plus Anti Spyware 2010If you are reading this article then it is obvious that you are seeking more information about antivirus and antispyware protection. You are smart to be concerned about issues like this because they are growing at an extremely fast rate every single day. This is exactly why we have chosen to find, download, test, and review a good amount of the software out there that says it can protect you. This is our review of CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware 2010.

We setup a test PC fully infected with numerous nasty viruses, quite a bit of spyware, and 1000s of tracking cookies from various websites. Needless to say, the test PC was basically running as if it was built during the Stone Age once we were done. We installed CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware 2010 and gave it the first run. The interface was simple, but very easy to use. Everything was pretty much self-explanatory. We went right for the scan. The scan didn’t take too long like some of the other software we tested so we were impressed by that alone. Although we were most impressed by the fact that it found all the stuff we loaded up on the first scan. One scan led to one clean PC. Read the rest of this entry »
