Those Features In Depth:
On Access Scanning - Always on, real-time protection against threats
The 'On Access Scanner' scans files for virus infection in real time whenever they are created, opened or copied. (as soon as you interact with a file, Comodo Antivirus checks it)
Such instant detection of viruses assures users that their system is perpetually monitored for threats and enjoys the highest level of protection.
It is highly recommended that you enable the on access monitor to ensure your system remains continually free of infection.
On Demand scanning - run instant scans on any file, folder or drive
When you want to check a file, disk or folder may for possible infection, you can use the On-demand scanning to perform an instant check on the selected object.
On-Demand scanning is also seamlessly integrated into the Windows operating system. Users can scan specific objects 'on the fly' by simply right-clicking on a file, folder or drive and selecting 'Scan with Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta' from the context sensitive menu.
In combination with the On Access monitor, demand scanning enables you to have complete reassurance that any virus resident on your PC will be effectively and comprehensively removed.
Host Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) Application Control
The new Host Intrusion Prevention Systems enables a user to prevent and stop spyware and malware from ever being installed on their PC. With HIPS activated, the user is warned EVERY time an unknown application executable (.exe) attempts to run. If the application is not found in Comodo’s safe list database, the user is immediately alerted and prompted to allow or block this file from running. The user can also submit the application in question to Comodo for analysis and, in the case of a false positive, addition to the safe list. Comodo AntiVirus is continually updated with the latest list of safe files directly from Comodo servers.
Scan Removable Devices
Viruses don't just get onto your computer via email!! Anything that passes information to your computer is a potential source of infection. Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta enables you to check for viruses on any removable storage device attached to your computer, including CD's, DVD's, external hard drives, USB connected drives, digital cameras - even your iPOD!!
Incremental scanning - Sweep your PC for viruses faster than ever before
Users can run faster virus scans by choosing ‘Incremental Scan of Safe Files’. An incremental scan will skip over the files that are listed as ‘safe’ in Comodo’s internal safe list. This reduces total scan time and accelerates both the identification and disinfection of corrupted files. It will also greatly enhance system performance on older computers. Incremental scanning is available as an option in both On Demand Scans and On Access scans.
Network drive scanning
Infected files that are located on network folders and mapped drives can affect your PC as severely as locally stored files. Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta will detect any remote drives and scan them for viruses, Trojans and worms. This means complete protection not only from local viruses but any potential threats on a network. Furthermore, Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta can be installed on servers to provide comprehensive, network wide safety for all shared files.
Advanced Heuristic detection Engine - Protects against unknown viruses
Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta employs the latest heuristic techniques to identify previously unknown viruses and Trojans. 'Heuristics' describes the method of analyzing the code of a file to ascertain whether it contains code typical of a virus. If it is found to do so then the application will disinfect the file or recommend it for quarantine.
This is a quantum leap in the battle against malicious scripts and programs as it allows the engine to 'predict' the existence of new viruses- even if it isn't contained in the current virus database.
Email Scanning - Automatic checking and disinfecting of incoming and outgoing mail
The vast majority of viruses and worms are spread via email. Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta checks every email and email attachment sent or received from your computer. If infections are found, the message is automatically quarantined and the user alerted.
Worm Blocker - Monitors and intercepts suspicious mass mailing attempts
Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta now includes protection against worm programs that attempt to duplicate themselves by sending mass mailings to your contact list.
Automatic Daily Updates - Up-to-the second protection against the latest threats
In order to guarantee the relevance of your antivirus software it is imperative that your virus databases are updated as regularly as possible.
Our anti-virus signature database is fully maintained and updated around the clock by a team of dedicated technicians, providing you with total protection from the latest virus outbreaks. Antivirus updates can be downloaded manually or automatically from Comodo's update servers.
Quarantine Facility - Isolate suspicious files so they can do no harm
The quarantine facility removes and isolates suspicious into a safe location before analyzing them for possible infection. Any files transferred in this fashion are encrypted- meaning they cannot be run or executed. This isolation prevents infected files from affecting the rest of your PC. If a file cannot be disinfected then it provides a reliable safe-house until the virus database is updated- neutralizing the impact of any new virus.
Quarantined files are stored using a special format and do not constitute any danger to your computer.
Easy, User Friendly interface
Control of all aspects of virus scanning is now easier than ever with Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta. There's no complex configuration or steep learning curves - just simple point and click deployment of your antivirus settings.
Featuring a sleeker, more intuitive design, each module of the antivirus program can be easily accessed and configured from a single, centralized, location. The system status screen provides an immediate 'heads-up' summary of Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta' current configuration.
Whether you are a seasoned IT professional or computer novice, the deployment of complete virus protection is a breeze with Comodo Antivirus.
One click reporting of system information
Comodo AntiVirus 2.0 beta gives you the ability to submit vital hardware system and software information to support lab staff in one click. The reports accelerate ticket resolution by immediately informing staff of relevant information about a user's installation, thus ensuring that problems are resolved in the fastest time possible.
'Version Information' reports contain a summary of vital information about the Comodo software that a user has installed on their system, including product version, virus database version, update version, license type, subscription validity and critical file version information. The 'System Information' report contains details of the hardware and software environment that a user is currently running, including operating system and version, service pack level, internet explorer version, CPU information and the amount of RAM installed on the PC.
