With so many antivirus softwares competing in the market, all with similar features and protections, it might be hard to choose the right one to protect your computer. In this article, we will take a close look at the new CA Antivirus 2008 software. CA stands for Computer Associate, a company whose products have been widely used in business corporations for security and antivirus protections. We will examine the CA Antivirus in terms of its features, interface, performance, and support.
The CA Antivirus features only anti-virus protection, with no anti-spyware, no firewall, no anti-spam, etc. The license supports up to 3 PCs. The coding is tighter, hence taking shorter time to scan from their previous version. It also has real-time scanning, automatic email scanning.
The interface of CA Antivirus is simple and non-flashy, which is its strong point. The interface is easy to navigate, responds instantly without the need to look through all the fancy graphics that some other antivirus programs have. You have all the tools you need to make a full PC scan, activate real-time scanning, and select your settings, etc.
Performance is what sets CA Antivirus apart from the competition. While features and solid protection are essential for an antivirus program. Our reason for getting an antivirus program in the first place is to protect our computers so that they can run and operate smoothly. "Smoothly" is the magic word here and many antivirus softwares fail simply because they consume too much of the computer's resources when real-time scanning is activated. CA Antivirus, however, has been praised for its performance even when alongside highly demanding applications, such as online games.
It is unfortunate the CA Antivirus fall short on the Support category. The help file provided does not go deep into the details. There is no manual and the CA Antivirus website does not have an online forum nor online chat support. This might make it difficult to antivirus novice to learn about and fix problems related to a virus or the program itself.
All in all, CA Antivirus 2008 remains a strong choice in the antivirus world. Though it lacks the technical support that some of the other antivirus programs provide, its combination of simplicity, performance, and affordable pricing makes it a viable choice for PC users looking for virus protection.
