Antivirus
The mission of the Antivirus module is to ensure detection and removal of all viruses in the wild. BitDefender Antivirus uses robust scan engines, certified by ICSA Labs, Virus Bulletin, Checkmark, CheckVir and TÜV.

Firewall
The firewall module filters network traffic and controls the access time and permissions for applications and users connecting to the Internet. In Stealth Mode your computer is "hidden" from malicious software and hackers.

Antispam
Quite simply put, the BitDefender antispam module deals with the problem of spam, so you don't have to.

Antispyware
Monitor and prevent potential spyware threats in real-time, before they can damage your system. By making use off a comprehensive database of spyware signatures, your computer will remain spyware-free.

Parental Control
The BitDefender parental control module can block access to web sites you deem inappropriate, block access to the Internet for certain periods of time (such as when it's time for lessons), and block applications like games, chat, filesharing programs or others from running.

Heuristics in Virtual Environment
Heuristics in Virtual Environment (HiVE) emulates a virtual computer-inside-a-computer where pieces of software are run in order to check for potential malware behavior. This BitDefender proprietary technology represents a new security layer that keeps the operating system safe from unknown viruses by detecting malicious pieces of code for which signatures have not been released yet.

Permanent Antivirus Protection
The new and improved BitDefender scanning engines will scan and disinfect infected files on access, minimizing data loss. Infected documents can now be recovered, instead of being deleted.

Peer-2-Peer Applications Protection
Filters against viruses that spread via instant messaging and file sharing software applications.

Full E-mail Protection
BitDefender runs on the POP3/SMTP protocol level, filtering incoming and outgoing e-mail messages, regardless of the e-mail client used (MS Outlook, MS Outlook Express, Netscape, Eudora, Pegasus, The Bat, etc.), without any additional configuration.

System requirements:
  • Pentium MMX 200 Mhz or higher processor
  • Minimum 128MB of RAM Memory
  • Minimum 40MB available hard disk space

Operating Environment: Windows 2000/XP IE 5.5(+)
