Optimized AntiVirus that is fast and efficient
VIPRE AntiVirus 2012 works quickly and efficiently. For years people have complained – my computer is slow – with their biggest frustration that antivirus programs bloat their computer resources. VIPRE Antivirus 2012 was created from scratch to run seamlessly without compromising system performance. Pay attention to your current system performance and then try replacing your existing antivirus with VIPRE – we think you’ll find it’s like having a new and improved system!
Next-generation technology = powerful antivirus and antispyware engine
At VIPRE’s core is an antivirus and antispyware engine that merges the detection of all types of malware into a single efficient and powerful system. The new technology was developed exclusively by GFI, without building on older generation antivirus engines. VIPRE uses next-generation technologies making it the future of antivirus programs.
Advanced anti-rootkit technology
VIPRE’s all-new anti-rootkit technology finds and disables malicious hidden processes, threats, modules, services, files, Alternate Data Streams (ADS), or registry keys that are preparing to invade your system. VIPRE’s FirstScan helps accomplish this by running at the system’s boot time. FirstScan bypasses the Windows operating system to directly scan certain locations of the hard drive for malware, removing infections where found.
Real-time monitoring with Active Protection
VIPRE’s Active Protection delivers real time monitoring and protection against malware threats by working inside the Windows kernel (the core of the operating system), monitoring for malware and stopping it before it has the opportunity to execute on your system. Our computer security defends against malware threats including zero-day threats, instantly, involving methods such as heuristics, behavioral analysis, and signature based technologies, to analyze malware.
Full protection against email-borne threats
Receive defense against email viruses as well as phishing scams. VIPRE Antivirus supports Outlook, Outlook Express and Windows Mail; and support for any email program that uses POP3 and SMTP (Thunderbird, IncrediMail, Eudora, etc.).
System Integrity – VIPRE AntiVirus won’t slow down your Computer
Our antivirus software optimizes overall performance by combining antivirus and antispyware together into a single, powerful tool, all written completely from scratch with the latest technologies. Our current definitions through antivirus software updates are performed seamlessly without reducing your system’s resources, unlike most other antivirus software programs.
Simple User Interface
