Consumers spend over a billion dollars a year on security software to keep their PCs safe. Every month they spend countless hours configuring and updating their software. And yet every week millions of users are infected by new threats that their traditional antivirus does not stop.

Why? Traditional antivirus solutions cannot protect you until after they've discovered a new threat and produced a signature to counter it.

ThreatFire is different. It does not rely on signatures, but instead constantly analyzes your computer's behavior to detect and block any malicious activity. ThreatFire protects immediately so you know your PC and your valuable data is always secure.

Changelog:

• ThreatFire is now be recognized in the Microsoft Security Center as an approved antivirus.
• New language options in Settings: English/German versions. (Additional languages will be added over time.)
• Updated antivirus engine from 4.4.2 to 4.4.5.
• Dynamic AV Database updates. AV Database updates are no longer tied to the product update mechanism. Instead, database updates will be handled in the same way as other ThreatFire program database updates and will happen automatically in the background on regularly scheduled intervals (assuming automatic updates is on).
• Animated Tray Icon. Animation (flickering flame) during scan and quarantine. Tooltip during animation provides additional information.
• New product update and breaking news bulletin notices, both of which can be turned On or Off in Settings.
• New malware rules.
• New/Updated Help file.
• Miscellaneous fixes for the following (most of these were mentioned in the ThreatFire forum: schedule a scan settings, blank alerts at slider Protection Level 4, periodically unable to sign in to eBay and Hotmail, fix for viewing at 120 DPI.
• Improved malware detections.
• Fewer false positives.
• Miscellaneous other program fixes.
