  • Will 2012 Be the Year of the Cellphone Virus?
    • Mon, 30 Jan 2012 16:44:54 GMT
    I know I'm not the first blogger in the antivirus arena to go on record as saying that I think cell phones and tablet PCs are ripe for the pickin' by the virus and malware writers. What's clear though is that more folks like us (i.e. people who are *not* employees of the top antivirus manufacturers) are beginning to start beating this drum, too.

  • Security Alert: Critical Patches to Adobe Reader & Acrobat
    • Sat, 17 Dec 2011 00:42:17 GMT
    Anytime I hear that attacks are being exploited in the wild, it means two things: update the affected software and double check that my antivirus software is updated. In this case, we'll cut to the quick: go patch your Adobe Reader / Adobe Acrobat. Now.

  • Ask the Experts: Help! My PC is infected! How do I remove a virus?
    • Wed, 14 Dec 2011 07:06:03 GMT
    Mike wrote in today asking a question on a lot of people's minds: "I was surfing the web, I use Firefox, when suddenly my antivirus software started going totally nuts. I got a warning that it had blocked something from infecting my system, and I thought everything was fine, but a few second later, my system ground to a halt and my desktop disappeared. Clearly, I've got a virus. Any tips or ideas on how I can get rid of this thing?"

  • Ask the Experts: What's the difference between the VIPRE you review and the one on TV?
    • Tue, 13 Dec 2011 22:16:37 GMT
    Got a call today from Steve who asked, "There's an offer for VIPRE antivirus I've been seeing on TV lately for a hundred bucks. It's for a "lifetime" license for 10 PCs. Is this the same thing that you reviewed on your site?"

  • Ask the Experts: What's the best antivirus software for our small office?
    • Tue, 13 Dec 2011 00:09:42 GMT
    I'm on your mailing list, so I get your coupon deals when they come out. I saw one recently where almost everything was on sale. I didn't need a deal then, but I need one now (haha) and I don't know what to get. I'm office manager for a doctor's office. There are three physicians in the practice and a couple of nurses and lab techs, a billing person, plus me. About 9 people full-time. What's the right antivirus software for a setup like ours? Read on to find out...

Easy to install. Best real-time protection. Fast scanning. Very low memory & CPU footprint. Best customer service.
spacer The first thing we saw when we began testing this year's antivirus software is that installing VIPRE 2012 takes longer than other software.

Once it's installed, the next thing you'll notice is the new interface. While it's new for 2012, it's mostly a rehash of the 2011 version.

If you've used VIPRE before, it'll be very familiar; if you haven't and are used to other antivirus software, you might think it's not as pretty as your old software.

In spite of these minor shortcomings, it's still the best antivirus software we know of, again earning our top spot for 2012 and our Editor's Choice award.

For starters even though installation is a little lengthy, it's incredibly easy, needing only four clicks. And, it even installed well for us onto our heavily infected PCs.

Next, as for the interface, once you use it even for a few minutes, you'll see it's fast and easy to use.
TOP FEATURES
  • Great real-time protection
  • Low system resource use
  • Fast virus & spyware removal


    • Next, the most important part: detecting and removing viruses. In this part, VIPRE again outperformed the competition on both old and new malware alike.

    Customer / technical support--often weak spots in good software--continue to be the best of any software we tested. Since we began our reviews, no other antivirus company has matched the level and quality of service we see routinely with VIPRE.

    Everything from installation help to complete virus removal is included for free with VIPRE. (Few others offer this, those that do charge hefty fees.) And, their tech support is even based in the U.S. in Clearwater, Florida.

    So because of strong antivirus protection, good spyware blocking, and unmatched tech support, VIPRE earns our Editor's Choice again for 2012.
