Security developer CyberDefender Corporation launched CyberDefenderFREE 2.0, an upgrade to the popular first version, a free anti-spyware program. CyberDefenderFREE adds virus, spam and phishing support, making it an all-free Internet security suite that provides rapid detection and protection against the latest fast-moving online security threats. CyberDefenderFREE takes advantage of the company's patent-pending earlyNETWORK, a client-to-client distributed system for security updates, which achieves significantly earlier detection and immunization on PCs, while also working in conjunction with other security software.

"We developed CyberDefenderFREE to make security available to anyone, anywhere in the world, making them safe from emerging threats and Internet identity theft," said CyberDefender's Chief Executive Officer Gary Guseinov. "CyberDefenderFREE's ability to catch threats earlier and work alongside all major security software products is unique; users can add it to their existing Internet security tools for an extra layer of protection."

CyberDefenderFREE finds infections other security software misses, or fails to analyze, catching spyware, viruses and other attacks earlier, and providing security updates faster. Compatible with all major security software products, earlyNETWORK technology uses local bandwidth to deliver its information, so that CyberDefender can distribute updates as they occur, helping to support the company's near real-time threat detection system.

Features and Benefits

A complete Internet security suite, CyberDefenderFREE's user-friendly features include earlySPY, which identifies and resolves both known and unknown Spyware infections, and earlyVIRUS for real-time virus protection. earlySPAM is focused on dangerous spam in users' Outlook or Outlook Express inboxes. earlySCAM is uses an anti-phishing network that senses sites designed to trick users into revealing personal and financial information, and rapidly updates the rest of the network so everyone is protected from scam sites even as they proliferate. earlyMONITOR combines several useful security utilities, such as an early update alert tool for Windows Updates, and a password vulnerability analyzer. The safeSEARCH toolbar, included with the program, helps users search on popular search engines more safely.

CyberDefenderFREE is a free application supported by unobtrusive in-product advertising designed to function only while the software is active. CyberDefenderFREE can be downloaded at: http://www.cyberdefender.com
