*Panda Internet Security* is the brand's middle of the range computer
security product: a powerful *antivirus tool* and cloud protection for your
most important files. New for 2013 is a *completely redesigned interface*
with tons of additional features that make it a holistic security suite for
your PC. Antivirus is still at the heart of Panda Internet Security but it
also includes a *firewall, USB 'vaccine,' multimedia/gaming mode, safe
browser, identity protection, spam filter, and parental controls*. The
interface of Panda Internet Security has been completely redesigned since the
last version with a focus on making it easy to read and use. Functions are
now big, colorful icons and the most *vital information is presented at the
top with charts and large text*. Menus and their explanations have also been
simplified so you know exactly what each feature does. New in Panda Internet
Security 2013 is the USB vaccine, which *prevents malicious software from
automatically running when connected to the computer*. This is a pretty basic
way to prevent infections from external devices but useful, nonetheless.
Performance of the application is good with *quick scans and consumes minimal
system resources*. Panda Internet Security focuses on creating an unobtrusive
security experience and it succeeds on the most part. You can set up Panda
and just forget about it. It will run in the background and *will only alert
you if an infection is found or if you need to take action*. The firewall
replaces the Windows default firewall and has the ability to allow
connections from common applications. You'll have to decide whether to give
an app that hasn't been white listed internet access. When tested against
standardized virus attacks, Panda Internet Security *stopped infected files
immediately and without major interruption of our work*. We especially liked
the fact the Panda Internet Security doesn't fill up the screen with
unnecessary warnings all the time. *Panda Internet Security is an
unobtrusive, efficient and user-friendly security suite that protects your
system and personal information without needless interruptions.*Download
