Anyone can get viruses or spyware on their computer, and the problem is, it's invisible. Online threats can be accidentally acquired by trying free downloads such as screensavers or games. The threat "piggybacks" onto the download, silently installing itself onto your computer. You can also get a virus by downloading an attachment sent to you via email - even from someone you know.
There are some subtle differences between viruses and spyware. Both can range from just annoying to dangerous. Spyware (by definition) is designed to capture your personal information or behavior from your PC. It can track your web surfing habits, passwords, banking information, or other personal information. . . leading to identity theft. A computer virus is a bit different. It is a computer program that self-replicates and inserts itself throughout your computer, corrupting files, causing your computer to crash, even rendering your computer unusable.
Any one of these threats should be avoided. The best way to protect yourself is to make sure you have comprehensive security software installed before you ever encounter a virus or spyware.
CyberDefender developed the first Collaborative Internet Security Network and uses patent pending early detection technology to protect computer users in "real time" against new malware attacks including spyware, viruses, and more.
CyberDefender's Collaborative Internet Security Network, called the earlyNETWORK, uses the power of the community through a proprietary peer-to-peer relay network protecting users against Internet threats faster than most competing technologies. In addition to this fast moving network, CyberDefender also enlists the power behind multiple strategic sources to make sure you are protected in "real time" from active threats while also improving the safety of Internet searches.

CyberDefender uses Dual-Core scanning engines for home users and small businesses for optimal detection and protection.
What does this mean for users? SUPERIOR PROTECTION against a broad spectrum of viruses, spyware and other malware. This level of protection is typically offered only by the expensive gateway/server security products used by large corporations.
No single-scan engine protects consumers against ALL the cyber threats out there. This is especially true today because cyber criminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated in evading traditional detection methods. As a result, the number of new daily threats has been rising exponentially in the past several years.
CyberDefender's Dual-Core Technology is a powerful, integrated solution that gives users:
