Trend Micro TrendProtect for Internet Explorer is a handy browser plug-in that informs you of the present any unwanted content or potential threat in the website you are about to visit and also pages listed in Google, MSN, and Yahoo search results. The application is really simple and doesn't do much; it just analyzes the website and provides a security rating, letting you to decide whether you open it o not. In order to rate web pages, the utility checks on an extensive database that includes sensitive information such as site and page reputation, phishing scam detection, and content category. Of course, this isn't an anti-virus, it just warns you to avoid any source of infection. If you accidentally open a website rated as unsafe by TrendProtect, you should immediately scan your computer. This new version includes two new rating types and it also adds Windows Vista support. One of the rating types shows you if the program is unable to connect to servers, and the other indicates if the page is suspicious. All in all, if you are a heavy Internet user and don't know much about the possible threats, Trend Micro TrendProtect for Internet Explorer can help you avoid much trouble and headaches. It supports Microsoft™ Internet Explorer 6.0 or 7.0, and Windows XP, 2000, and Vista. |
