ESET
Smart Security is a tightly integrated solution designed to protect
computers from a range of threats. Built on the award-winning ESET
NOD32® Antivirus and its powerful ThreatSense® engine, ESET Smart
Security provides antispyware, antispam and customized firewall
features. Utilizing ThreatSense — the industry's most advanced
heuristics — the window of vulnerability between virus outbreak and
signature update is reduced.
The key advantage of this approach
is that individual protection modules are able to communicate together
seamlessly, to create unparalleled synergy to improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of protection. Moreover, the integrated architecture
guarantees optimal utilization of system resources, so ESET Smart
Security continues ESET's well know reputation for providing rock solid
security in a small footprint that will not slow down an individual's
computer.

application protocols HTTP and POP3 (used for Internet browsing and for
retrieving email from servers) for infiltrations. * Checking low-level network communication which helps to avoid many of various remote attacks. *
Ability to recognize the character of network connections established
by various types of infiltrations and ability to automatically
terminate them. * Filtering of incoming and outgoing communication based on user defined rules. * Monitoring changes in executable files. *
Interactive and automatic mode. The former enables you to create your
