Publisher's description
From PC Tools :ThreatFire features innovative real-time protection technology that provides powerful standalone protection or the perfect complement to traditional signature-based antivirus programs. ThreatFire's patent-pending ActiveDefense technology offers protection against both known and unknown viruses, worms, trojans, rootkits, buffer overflows, spyware, adware and other malware. It uses behavioral analysis to hunt down and paralyze threats that are too new or too clever to be recognized by traditional "signature-based" antivirus software.

Version: ThreatFire Free Edition 3.0.0.15
"Extra layer of protection - thanks!"
Pros: I have other PC Tools products and have been pleased, this one is a nice extra layer of protection and love that it is free. I haven't noticed many alerts (only one with when I installed another security application which was good anyway) or slow-down. I would highly recommend as a bit more protection!
Cons: Bit more detail in the settings would be nice, so I could tweak it a bit.

Version: ThreatFire Free Edition 3.0.0.15
"Makes me feel much safer transacting online!"
Pros: I have read alot about behaviour based vs signature based protection and since I pay bills online, trade stock and shop I thought it was about time I got myself a true behaviour based product. I really like PC Tools products as I find that they are easy to use and they work. They seem to always come out on top of the reviews and roundup which are regularly published and so I thought I'd give this product a go. I really like the install process, the UI is intuitive and easy to understand. All in all my experience to date has been excellent.
