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. Highly recommended download against zero-day and emerging threats.

Version: ThreatFire Free Edition 3.0.7
"A nightmare use with a lot of aspirin or alcohol lol"
Pros: Not a lot give it 6 months might work properly lol
Cons: To slow ,freezes up, fights with other applications, tested on 3 different pc's , on one the licence box was missing the register button , on another it was scanning forever , the 3rd it stopped access to the net , takes to long to even swap functions , never seen anything so slow doing that ?PC Tools have made far better programs , this one is not even close to them .

Version: ThreatFire Free Edition 3.0.7
Pros: Tested against numerous known keyloggers and trojans and all were detected (even one that was missed by my other favorite from PC Tools - Spyware Doctor). Didn't seem to affect system performance which is good for this type of behavior monitoring software. Great that's it's a fully functionality free product, no need to pay to get competitive functionality.
Cons: I received a couple of alerts for legitimate applications (e.g. uninstall of one product) although this is not unexpected with this type of software and much better than some of the other HIPS programs that alert on every change.
