Going online without protection against the latest fast-spreading virus and worms, such as Netsky, Mytob and MyDoom, can result in infections within minutes.
Once infected, the virus will usually attempt to spread itself to your friends, family and associates by accessing your email contacts and networked PCs. The infection may also allow hackers to access files on your PC, use it to launch attacks against other computers and websites or to send mass SPAM email.
That's why PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition provides world-leading protection, with rapid database updates, OnGuard real-time protection and comprehensive system scanning to ensure your system remains safe and virus free. PC Tools products are trusted and used by millions of people everyday to protect their home and business computers against online threats.
We highly recommend this FREE download.

ah yess..
worth every thing I paid for it. nothing. found 68 "threats" but refused to 'repair' them unless i paid for the product. Classic scare tactics. Oh and by the way.. I use a newly installed XP to test new software.. nothing else on the disk but what came with my computer when I bought it. i have no way to rate if it actually "stopped" a cyber attack.. and i think NOBODY else does either...
Let me say that I believed that this program would allow me to find and remove spyware. Would give me information as to the exact threat so i could rationally evaluate the threat level posed. Surely, nothing in the pre install hype told me otherwise. It was a total failure along those lines.
I would call this a scare ad... framed as a software tool.
Now that i feel that they lied about what i COULD CHECK.. why should i believe they are telling the truth about stuff i could not check?

Turned into nagware after a short time. There are much better free antivirus solutions out there.
