Introducing SpyCatcher 5.0, the Most Advanced Best-of-Breed Spyware Protection
Latest release delivers a comprehensive antispyware solution to users of all computer skill levels
Framingham, MA, February 19, 2008 - Tenebril Inc., a division of Process Software, today launched SpyCatcher 5.0, an industry leading antispyware solution for the home and home office. SpyCatcher offers advanced protection from emerging, evasive spyware easily and safely while preserving PC performance.
SpyCatcher's key differentiator from the competition is the new Profiling Engine. Its high degree of accuracy keeps users safe from malicious programs and provides users with a wealth of information on what applications are running on their PC. The Profiling Engine includes the following new or enhanced technologies:
- Enhanced Real-Time Proactive Protection - SpyCatcher keeps computers safe between scans. Its continuous protection monitors PCs for any suspicious activity that is typical of spyware with advanced behavioral analysis. SpyCatcher proactively stops any action from taking effect before your PC is put at risk.
- Enhanced DeepDefense - This technology prevents the installation of rootkits, keyloggers, and other malicious programs safely. It intercepts all API calls, which blocks the installation of aggressive spyware. DeepDefense is embedded in the operating system and delivers the best protection from sophisticated new threats.
- New ClearView Application Control - This provides a detailed list and description of the applications running on your PC. Users can decide to allow, or block and remove any applications based on this information.
- New Spyware Vendor Tracking - Provides users with a list of certified vendors that have applications running on their PCs. A user can allow, or block and remove all software that was published by a particular vendor.
Other SpyCatcher 5.0 enhancements include:
- Automatic, High-Performance Scans - SpyCatcher includes Quick, Deep, and Custom spyware scan options, which can be performed at regular intervals automatically or on-demand, according to a user's preferences. Scans use lower CPU than its predecessor so it will not interfere with the performance of other PC programs.
- User-Friendly - SpyCatcher has a new intuitive user-friendly interface. Beginner PC users can install and remove the most dangerous spyware easily. Experienced PC users can customize preferences and use the advanced application tools to suit their specific requirements.
- No-risk spyware removal - Enables users to recover all removed files and programs that were previously blocked from running. This allows users to remove files with confidence and without the threat of accidentally deleting legitimate files.
"Spyware continues to pose a serious risk to online consumers as spyware vendors use more complex methods to steal information," said Brian McDonald, Process Software President and CEO. "SpyCatcher 5.0 has risen to the challenge by using new and more powerful technology to protect users."
Pricing and Availability - SpyCatcher 5.0 is available immediately for $29.95 on the Internet at www.tenebril.com, as well as from the extensive network of Tenebril Authorized Resellers. SpyCatcher 5.0 is also sold through all major electronics retailers. SpyCatcher 5.0 runs on PCs equipped with Windows 2000, XP, and Vista.
