Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Everything you need to stay safe online
F-Secure Internet Security 2009 provides a complete and easy-to-use protection against all Internet threats, whether they are known or previously unidentified. It includes an award-winning antivirus, powerful antispyware, easy-to-use personal firewall, and updated DeepGuard 2.0 technology with network based recognition of malicious software that constantly monitors the very heart of your computer, ensuring that no malicious programs can take over your computer. In addition, the product filters unwanted spam and so-called phishing attempts from your e mail, and with parental control, you can easily block access to websites with questionable content.

DeepGuard 2.0 - Protect Yourself Against the Unknown
Fast spreading hidden attacks are a major problem on the Internet. Designed by money-driven online criminals to get financial rewards, these attacks often go unnoticed and cause irreparable loss of data or identity. F-Secure Internet Security comes with intelligent DeepGuard 2.0 technology that protects you against anything that might be a sign of danger in your computer, stopping it on its tracks, automatically.

Protect your Privacy with Antispyware
Spyware can secretly track your surfing habits, abuse your Internet connection by sending data to a third party, profile your shopping preferences or hijack your web browser. F-Secure Internet Security protects your privacy by detecting and removing such software from your computer.

Stay Free from Spam and Phishing Attempts
The amount of spam is increasing as well as the number of e-mail schemes designed to get you to unknowingly disclose your private information. With F-Secure Internet Security, you can protect yourself against these rapidly growing problems. F-Secure Internet Security detects and filters spam and phishing attempts in e-mails.

Parental Control with Time Lock and User Profiles
The Parental Control feature ensures that your children do not enter questionable web sites or use the Internet when you are not around. You can also define age-based user profiles that have different access levels to the Internet content.

With daily automatically updated virus protection from the world-renowned F-Secure Data Security Laboratory and F-Secure DeepGuard 2.0 that protects you against zero-day attacks and other future threats, you can safely use your computer, now and tomorrow.

F-Secure Internet Security removes secretly installed software from your computer, ensuring that your system is running smoothly and clean of spyware.

You keep your private data to yourself with the personal firewall that stops hackers from breaking into your computer.

F-Secure Internet Security detects and filters unwanted spam and e-mail schemes designed to steal your private information.

F-Secure Internet Security ensures that your children do not enter objectionable sites or surf the Internet when you are not around.

Zero-day attacks are a new type of threat that can break into your computer even if you have up-to-date security software installed. F-Secure DeepGuard detects and prevents any suspicious activity that might indicate a danger in your computer. Rootkits are also detected and removed.

Certain web sites can infect your computer even if you do not download anything from the web site. Web Traffic Scanning protects you against this problem.

POP3, IMAP and SMTP traffic are scanned for viruses so that you do not have to worry about infected e-mails.

F-Secure Internet Security is extremely easy to install and use. As the software is highly automated, you do not have to understand the complexities of data security.

Immediate reaction times and fast cures during new and emerging threats ensured by F Secure Research Team working 24 hours a day.

News about virus outbreaks is delivered straight to your computer. This ensures that you get information about new viruses and their behavior immediately, as well as the instructions on how to avoid the infection and a confirmation whether your computer is already protected against the latest threat.

F-Secure Internet Security uses multiple scanning engines, bringing you the very best in detection and disinfection. Each of the scanning engines is specialized in detecting a different type of malware. It is like having several antivirus products running in your computer at the same time!

Learn about product features and functions. This easy to use tutorial provides answers to many essential questions on how to use the software.

F-Secure Internet Security has a clear user interface, including an easily accessible electronic manual. Both the software and electronic manual are available in your language.

I have had F-Secure for several years and recently upgraded to this latest version. I have a 1.8Ghz dual core with 1Gb RAM and I have not noticed any decrease in performance.

I've also had a search around on the web and a company called 'Virus Bulletin' have tested a load of products and F-Secure came out second overall. As far as I'm concerned it does the job better than most and it is there to stop viruses at the end of the day, so even if it did slow my PC down a bit I wouldn't mind!

All in all a good product that I have installed and forgotten about which is what I want.

F -ing superb 24 Dec 2008

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
There is in my opinion only one other AV solution that tops this and that is more of a commercial product. F-secure is non intrusive it doesn't suck the life out of your PC and it keeps itself up to date in a clearly scientifically researched environment. I would heartily recommend this solution above all others barring the other I mentioned.
The other is better orientated to SMe's and is quite a bit more expensive and so I use F-Secure and have done for years despite having reviewed and worked with others.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
I am computer-savvy but new to this product. I found it's highly customisable and taking the time to explore the settings provides all the education you need to figure out how it works.

I am using it on a machine that is always falling prey to viruses (despite being protected) because it's a communal machine used by several non-techie people. Since using F-Secure on that machine, there's not been a single virus. So I am very happy.

I've given it 4 stars because I think it's quite expensive but the flip side is that if it does the job where my previous antivirus failed, then the extra expense is worth it.
