Security Software
Ten free security utilities you should
already be using (ZDNET)
Haute
Secure
- Unlike any other product, prevents
malware from attacking your PC. Stop
"drive by" malware from loading itself
onto your computer when you visit web
pages that automatically add malicious
programming to your computer; even when
you haven't clicked on anything on their
web page.
Site Advisor
- "since March
McAfee has been offering a browser
plug-in that works
with Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft
Internet Explorer. Site Advisor puts a
little rectangular button in the bottom
corner of the browser. If a site you're
visiting is safe, the Site Advisor
button stays green. When you visit a
questionable Web site the button turns
red or yellow (depending on the risk
level) and a little balloon expands with
details on why Site Advisor has rated
the site as such."
Free utility looks for missing security
patches (7/24/07: ZDNET)
Google updates open-source anti-malware
tool (6/11/07)
ThreatFire Free Edition (exe) offers
protection against 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.
Sophos Anti-Rootkit (exe)
CallerIP monitors activity on open
ports on your system, which are often
not protected by firewalls, and
identifies backdoors that could allow
harmful Trojans to steal your
information.
