Latest generation antivirus

Automatically detects and eliminates all types of viruses.
If content is missing from your hard disk, if you have problems starting your computer, or if some of your files are unusable, you can be sure you've been hit by a computer virus. You can be infected just by surfing the Net, downloading a file, or opening an email attachment. There are also the dangers of worms and Trojans which now use new stealth techniques to evade detection.

With Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 you can use the Internet and download or share files in the knowledge that you are fully protected against all types of viruses, worms and Trojans. Forget about infections.

A configurable personal firewall stops intruders and hackers from accessing your PC.

Checks system memory and every file in the disk to find any threat such as virus, trojans, worms, spyware, dialers, hacking tools, jokes and security risks.

Stay one step ahead of unknown threats.

Powerful AntiSpyware

Keeps your PC free from spyware.
Computer slowdowns, annoying and aggressive pop-up ads, sudden changes to your system settings... these are just some of the effects that spyware can have on your PC. The real danger however is that these threats can steal information about your Internet activity and then use it without your knowledge.

Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 detects and completely removes spyware and other annoying programs automatically. Safeguard your privacy.

Personal bi-directional firewall

Blocks hackers and intruders.
When you connect to the Internet, many programs try to access your PC. Some of them are not dangerous, such as those that let you update applications you have installed, but others will try to exploit your connection or control your computer. Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 includes a configurable personal firewall to stop intruders and hackers from accessing your PC. Turn your computer into a fortress.

In-depth online scanning
Scan in-depth your PC with TotalScan Pro. The new Panda TotalScan Pro is an online scanner that allows you to periodically scan in-depth your PC seeking any kind of malicious software. It checks system memory and every file in the disk to find any threat such as virus, trojans, worms, spyware, dialers, hacking tools, jokes and security risks.

AntiPhishing

Protects against online fraud
Certain emails are designed to trick you into revealing your confidential bank details. They may appear to have been sent from your bank, but they have not. Falling into the trap can be costly: it could give the phishers complete access to your bank accounts. Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 can identify these fraudulent emails, and prevent you from revealing your bank details, account numbers or other confidential information.

Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 will keep you safe from these dangerous scams. Bank and shop online with complete peace of mind.

Protection against dangerous websites

Prevents access to websites harboring threats.
Many infections occur simply when you visit a certain web page. Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 recognizes dangerous web pages and prevents you from opening them and becoming infected. This feature is particularly effective against certain types of spyware and online fraud. Surf the Internet safely.

TruPrevent Technologies

Double protection
Some new threats are able to spread globally in just a few hours. In this time, your PC could be unprotected as your antivirus will not have had time to update. The TruPrevent Technologies included in Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 detect and block these unknown threats, intelligently scanning program behavior. This means your PC will have the reinforced protection it needs. Stay one step ahead of unknown threats.

AntiRootkit
Detects threats that try to hide on your PC
Rootkits can be used to hide threats and prevent them from being detected by security solutions. These threats can then act with impunity on your system. With Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 you won't have any problem, as its reinforced protection system can detect threats that use this stealth technique. Protect yourself from hidden threats.

Automatic daily updates
Every day more than 2,000 new threats appear. But don't worry. Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 automatically updates at least once a day to keep you permanently protected. Feel safe at all times.

5 out of 5 stars Very satisfied   May 5, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

After using Norton, McAfee and even Kaspersky which was installed all last year, I'd have to say Panda takes the cake. Not because of it's insane amount of features, but because of it's simplicity.

I don't want an Anti-virus/Firewall taking over my system, I don't want prompts all the time, or any other issues. Panda uses very little resources, hides in the background, and has done a fantastic job of protecting my system without bugging me. Kaspersky caused conflicts with certain pieces of software, Panda doesn't.

I have it installed on my system as well as a friends and couldn't be happier. It's super easy to use, very slick and streamlined, but most importantly, Panda uses a very solid antivirus detection engine with all the latest updates, does everything it needs to do, and nothing more.

Very highly recommended.



5 out of 5 stars Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 Review   April 21, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased this software after AT&T DSL changed to Norton for their total security package. Norton required 500 MB of RAM, and you are blocked from using it unless you meet the specs. Panda AV+FW only needs 256MB of Ram and works very well for me to date. I first tried the trial from Panda, then since it worked seamlessly in the background and has a fairly good user interface, I went for the purchase. Amazon has a much better deal for puchasing, especially vs direct from Panda; and it included a rebate offer. The delivery was quick; earlier than I expected and was in good condition. Great product and great service from Amazon.


3 out of 5 stars Not for the non proficient computer user. Have to tinker firewall setting a little   March 6, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I installed this programm on Vista Home Premium running PC. It slowed it so significantly. Before I had McAfee programm and it didn't have any problems with Vista. It (Panda) will make your fast computers into slow moving train. Waste of money.
Update:
Now two days ago when I finally tinkered with firewall (setting which allows certain programs and files to have inbound or outbound or both internet connections) program started to work normally and it doesn't slow my computer at all. It seems by default Panda is very restrictive in allowing your programs to have free internet browsing. There are also intel's remoting services files which don't liked to be blocked by Panda. In short, if something doesn't work when you install Panda try to check your's Panda firewall setting, if you won't firewall will make a wall in your computer.
Update, one more: Here is my letter to Panda customer support: After installing your programm on my Vista home premium PC, my computer started to perform very slowly. Prior to installing Panda I had McAfee antivirus software which didn't slow my system at all (I uninstalled it already). What is going on? Why your programm makes my computer so slow? Please, don't tell me its because Vista is bad programm. I know that Vista is bad but it worked wonderfull with McAfee software and it doesn't with your Panda. I really regret that I installed your programm at my computer. Is there any way to make it not slowing my system.
Here is Technical support answer: Hello,

The reason the computer is operating slowly is because there is most likely remnants of McAfee still on the system. You should run their removal utility to make sure that all remnants of McAfee are removed properly and so it does not conflict with Panda.
It appears that you may have remnant files from McAfee Security application on your system causing conflict for Panda during the installation. In order for you to remove the remnant files, please click on the following link to the view the instructions:
http://us.pandasecurity.com/techsupport/templates/mcafee.htm
Here is again my answer: Thank you for your help. I did remove all McAfee software. However it wasn't the reason Panda slowed my computer. It appeared that some default setting on Panda Firewall blocked lots of program's inbound and outbound internet connections on my computer. After a changed the setting letting outbound connection to some of my programs-computer started to work normally. I, as a customer, would advise you not to put such powerful defaults in your firewall since it may scare people of not buying your programm at all, since it literally brings computer to a stop and takes lots of macnine resources.
I hope this help someone to find solution to their panda problem



4 out of 5 stars No Problems   October 29, 2007
I also had Panda 2007 and the 2008 Anti-Virus & Firewall installed with no problems at all with Windows XP. Everything seems to be working well. I did uncheck the feature that notified me when any "malicious" cookies were detected, as it was popping up on every web site.

I bought Panda titanium 2007 and was offered a free upgrade to the 2008 version. This program will not install properly on Windows 2000. Panda Technical Support is slow, and in my now quite extensive experience, utterly ineffective and useless. I have wasted many hours following their word-processed instructions. This product is anything but the "install-and-forget" solution they claim.
