NEW PRODUCT FEATURES

Collective Intelligence. Maximum Protection with Minimum Impact.

Panda Security's Collective Intelligence works as an online and real-time database that stores the majority of signature files, keeping them at a minimum on the endpoint. Every Panda user is a sensor for new malware, sending samples back to the cloud.

With Panda 2008 range of products protection was purely based on the users' PCs installed signature file. With the new Collective Intelligence approach Panda 2009 products also send regular queries to the cloud.

  • Web navigation, eMail and Instant Messaging (IM). Panda sends queries to the cloud whenever an executable program is received. Keep in mind that it is not very common to receive executables, dll files, etc via this media.
  • On-access scan (processes/libraries loaded in memory). How does it work? Imagine that 40 files are loaded in memory; Panda sends a query to the cloud and confirms them to be good ware. A couple of hours later, there are 42 programs uploaded in memory, from which 40 were already loaded and checked before. Panda will ONLY perform the check for the new 2 programs, since the other 40 have been checked before. A minimum PC and bandwidth consumption is used when sending queries to the cloud.
  • On-demand scans. Whether is automatic or on-demand, Panda also sends queries to the cloud.

What are the main benefits for the users?

  • Faster and better detection rate
  • Faster and better disinfection rate
  • Minimum PC resources and bandwidth consumption
  • Furthermore the community feature of Collective Intelligence provides a full vision and full traceability of the new malware techniques and distribution points. This knowledge allows Panda to continuously improve the protection of its customers.

Identity Theft Protection
The new Anti-Banking Trojans engine detects the most dangerous identity theft malware used by cyber-criminals to steal banking credentials. Specialized heuristics and generic detection techniques ensure maximum protection for online transactions. Furthermore the Anti-Rootkit Technology detects and removes silently-installed rootkits used by malware or hackers to evade traditional antivirus products. The free Panda Anti-Rootkit, used by millions of people around the world, recently won the Editor's Choice award from PC Magazine.

The Anti-Phishing Filter recognizes fraudulent email and protects users from scams while you shop, bank or pay bills online.

The Identity Theft protection module included on PIS 2009 and PGP 2009 has been improved:

  • It now incorporates an advanced heuristic scan that detects more identity theft
  • The personal Information Filter prevents theft from users PC of credit card numbers
  • social security numbers and any other personal information you define
  • The new Web Filter allows users to safely browse the Internet without risk of drive-by infections, vulnerability exploits, browser hijacking or phishing websites. By analyzing web site content, forms, links and web reputation scores (from Anti-Phishing org),

Anti-Rootkit Technology detects and removes silently-installed rootkits used by malware or hackers to evade traditional antivirus products.

Current malware behavior changes constantly and consequently, our proactive technologies need to be updated overtime. The new TruPrevent 2.0 has been improved and is now integrated with our Collective Intelligence platform, increasing the detection rate substantially while decreasing the amount of false positives.

Customer Reviews for  'Panda Antivirus Pro 2009 - 1 User [OLD VERSION]'
 
Panda AV
This is the WORST Anti-Virus product that I have ever used. I would NEVER buy it again. Your computer is always having pop-up ERROR MESSAGES related to this product, then when you go to their website, they have these DETAILED PROCEDURES you have to go through to fix THEIR defective product. Product STINKS, with a CAPITAL S. WOULD NEVER buy it again. I would use the FREE products available before using this piece of crap. I HAVE used other AV products, all of which are better than this one. Kaspersky is one of the best. Bit Defender online is also excellent for picking up what your installed AV misses.
 
Never could update -
Update 3/24/2010:
After they refused a refund, I got an email:
"Panda Security. Survey of satisfaction relative to the incident: ..."
I took the survey and outlined my problems.
Later, Nick of Panda called me left a message in which he offered a refund or more help.
I called back. He had reviewed my case and agreed to a refund, which he said would take 15 to 30 days.
I'll revise this review again, to confirm when I receive the refund.
------
I had used Panda since 2005, when it worked well.
Panda 2008 had some trouble updating in about Dec. 2008. But it was repaired by Panda Tech Support by phone.
When I renewed in April of 2009, the Panda 2009 program failed to update its virus library, from the outset. After their attempts to fix this, the program ran through its install only to fail because there was still a copy of Panda detected already installed. Their uninstall program repeatedly failed to clear this. This time-consuming uninstall-then-install process was repeated many times.
I spent many hours over many weeks with their tech support -- to no avail.
The last live tech in that round said: "Just use the Windows XP firewall 'till we find a fix."
They never followed-up.
My subsequent attempts sometimes reached people, who tried to start from scratch with the same failed procedures. More often I couldn't reach anyone.
Support phone numbers were frequently changed. Emails went unanswered.
I eventually installed a competitor's antivirus product.
When they emailed an offer to renew, and provided a phone number, I called again. That phone number had already been changed, but a message gave me a new number.
I called and asked the representative for a refund for 2009.
Here is his emailed reply:

"Dear Customer,
I regret to inform you we cannot issue a refund for the subscription. We can only refund internet sales within seven days of the purchase.
Information regarding our refund policy can be found at our website at the following link under # 17 - Termination of the Agreement: [...]
Please contact our technical support to resolve the issues you are currently having with the Panda software.
If you have any other questions please feel free to email a reply."
 
Program crashes
The program itself installed in what has become the expected manner, a few minor glitches two reboots were the limit of the hoops. Once installed, the tpsrv.exe portion of the program would crash whenever my browser of choice (firefox, on xp system, both up to date) was initiated. Occasionally it would die of no noticeably associated causes.

I put up with the behavior for several days, took a day to research related problems of other users, found no real resolutions, and uninstalled. Currently now running 'clamwin'; arguable not as involved a program as Panda Pro, but totally painless to install and run.
 
Total lack of customer support
The software seems to work; but after an activation issue, I discovered that there is no apparent customer support, not even an automated reply saying they will reply soon. As the support e-mail did not appear to reach anyone, I followed up by e-mailing the sales manager and every other department e-mail I could find, which finally got a reply after a few days.
 
I liked it
I was pleased with this product. It immediately detected that I had a partitioned hard drive and gave me the option of checking all three partitions. Didn't find any virus (which frankly I had hoped for; to explain some problems) but deleted tons of spyware which did eliminate most of my problems on my main (XP) partition. I would recommend this product. 4 Stars and not 5 because already it's little pop-ups ("Do you want to upgrade?") are becoming annoying.
