Developer’s Description

Protect your PC against attacks from the Internet.

The job of your Securepoint PC Firewall & VPN is to protect a PC from unwelcome access from the outside and to protect your personal data thereby. Protecting the PC from attacks from the Internet is the most important field of application today. The Securepoint PC Firewall represents the intersection between your local PC and the Internet. It also supervises all transfer of data. The Firewall automatically hides your PC. That means it makes the PC invisible for possible attackers and catches suspicious connections. Unnoticed passing-on of personal data will become impossible. The integrated VPN Client is an easy-to-use remote working software based on the latest IPSec VPN technology.

The software provides smooth integration with a remote network and may be used with the most popular IPSec-compliant gateway - like Securepoint Firewall & VPN server. The software provides authentication, encryption to your network traffic and supports Preshared Key authentication / X509 certificates.

Crashed TWO computers
DH1968February 1, 2010
Pros
Um...well...
Cons
10 years as a net admin/PC tech and this is the worst program I've ever installed. First installation was on a P4 laptop running XP SP3 and the second was on a dual core tower running XP SP3. Immediately after installation, both units blue screened
Summary
It is a waste of your time to download this and I suggest to CNET that they remove it from their lineup. 2 installs + 2 BSOD = Major Failure If you get a Blue Screen 1. Restart your PC and tap F8. Choose either safe mode option 2. Click Start-Run and type msconfig and press enter 3. Under the start up tab uncheck sppfw click OK 4 Restart your PC and remove the program through the uninstall shown in All Programs or through the Control Panel.
Blue Screen of Death

Pros
I never got it working
Cons
I installed the software and was prompted for a restart. I restarted and got the blue screen. I restarted 3 times and got it every time. I started in safe mode and unistalled this software. now my computer is back to normal.
Summary
don't waste your time
Reboot loop
cyberguildNovember 9, 2008
Pros
Free. Has VPN client - lacking in XP MCE (Media Center Edition) for some dumb reason.
Cons
Installed on XP MCE with SP3. It required a reboot. After reboot and the start of Securepoint, there was no error message and the product didn't handle whatever problem it was having - got into a reboot loop. Had to start in Safe Mode & uninstall.
Summary
Don't install. If you do, use F8 to go into Safe Mode - reboot, after you see a flash on your screen - press F8, so you can uninstall in the Controll Panel, Add/Remove Programs.
System Loop, Very Bad...Should be noted as a VIrus

Nothing but a Virus.....
Cons
Try if you like visiting the safe mode of your system.

Blue Screen
wavsterOctober 4, 2007
Pros
N/A
Cons
I didn't get a chance to try the software. The problem may be that I tried the software on Windows XP Home edition. Professional edition has built in IPSec capability and this may be the reason why it locked up on me. First error message was in German and I had to use Babel fish to translate for me.

Blue Screen

Pros
Cons
This tool made my Windows XP Professional machine blue screen repeatedly, so I had to uninstall it.
Summary
Horrible because of installation problems
pk7465September 4, 2006
Pros
Cons
On computer restart after initial installation, the computer was put into a contiuous loop - installation attempt, failure and restart - over and over. I had to use my Win Patrol program to stop it.
Summary
I think it's real good!
rocknmanMarch 22, 2006
Pros
Easy to use, easy to understand, user manual (PDF) available. I had Sygate before, then tried NetVeda Safety.Net. It was a little technical and didn't remember trusted sites all the time for me. So far, Securepoint is doing great.
Cons
Other than having a word here and there in German look out of place...nothing yet.
Summary
Dangerous!

Cons
Made a mess of my system. Blue screen of death from the start. Steer clear of this one.
Summary

AeonblueJanuary 6, 2006
Pros
Cons
what i did not like was that this was a fake firewall and really a virus. when i installed this on my computer it caused it to crash exactly 2.5 minutes after system start-up. this forced me to use system restore and take my computer back to another date to fix it
