AntiVirus 2009 is the latest release of the award-winning PC security
software from Norton. It protects your PC from viruses, worms, and spyware.
Norton AntiVirus 2009 offers intelligent, multilayered protection from viruses,
spyware, bots, and more. New for 2009 is intelligence-driven technology for
faster, shorter scans and Rapid Pulse Updates, delivered every 5 to 15 minutes,
ensuring very quick response to emerging threats. Norton also protects against
infected websites and other browser threats.
Protect your PC
AntiVirus 2009 reliably detects and removes spyware and viruses, block bots and
worms, and locate potentially malicious rootkits. The software can start up with
Windows and run in the background, working to prevent many types of threats from
ever damaging your system. It protects your system right from the start with a
pre-installation scan, and follows Norton's evolutionary approach to improving
scan times with each year's releases.
Stay on top of new threats
AntiVirus 2009 includes a one-year subscription to Norton Pulse Updates,
Symantec's download service that provides new features, product updates, and
threat advisories multiple times per hour. This means your system is more likely
to be protected from new threats which emerge regularly.
New and additional features
AntiVirus 2009 includes email and instant message scanning to protect against
infected attachments. Symantec's algorithm-based SONAR technology can detect
emerging threats before signature-based definitions are available, and the
AutoFix technology diagnoses and fixes common problems.
