• New!—Script Stopper
  Many of the fastest spreading viruses, like I Love You, use scripts to infect your PC. VirusScan 7 stops new malicious threats from infecting your system with Script Stopper. Script Stopper detects, alerts, and blocks malicious script actions to keep your computer safe from script-initiated threats. It adds an extra layer of protection from the most common type of infection method for consumer viruses.

  
  

• New!—Hostile Activity Watch Kernel (HAWKTM)
  The Hostile Activity Watch Kernel (HAWKTM) constantly monitors your computer for virus-like activity providing even more protection for Internet-based threats. It looks for events that may indicate new mass-mailers, or attachments with double file extensions. By monitoring for these typically malicious activities, HAWK notifies you and lets you take action before damage occurs. HAWK saves you time, and possibly data and money, that could be lost by virus infiltration.
