PestPatrol is a powerful anti-hacker utility that detects and removes new breeds of malicious software such as trojans, hacker tools, and spyware. In the past, if you had anti-virus software on your PC, and a firewall at your corporate Internet connection, you were pretty safe from hackers and malicious code. Not anymore. New breeds of malicious software are spreading across the Internet, and they are more harmful than viruses. They can find their way onto your computer through an e-mail attachment, with a downloaded file, or planted on your system by a hacker.
Hacker tools like password crackers and keystroke loggers attempt to capture your security passwords. Trojans like Subseven and Bionet allow hackers to completely take over your computer and execute any functions they want. And spyware is constantly sending your personal information, including web surfing habits, back to the parent company. If you're attached to a corporate network or if you telecommute, your computer can then be used to launch an attack on the rest of the company.
PestPatrol was designed to specifically detect and remove these new breeds of malicious software. It's is a unique, easy-to-use tool that identifies and removes tens of thousands of Pests that may be hiding on your personal or corporate computer systems. Loaded with features, it lets you know what hidden files are lurking on your computer, and then gives you options on how to deal with them. You can delete, quarantine, research, or ignore any and all Pests. Extensive logging and reporting features give you a record of activity, and the many options are fully customizable.
The PestPatrol research team is constantly downloading and evaluating new Pest files. The product can be automatically updated to include the latest detections so you're always ready to combat hacker threats. To get your copy, visit http://www.PestPatrol.com.
