Avira survey: two thirds of the people interviewed dislike Web 2.0

Communication in the digital era: While every seventh person administer their contacts online, two out of three refuse to use Web 2.0Tettnang, 11 June 2008 – In the Web-2.0 era, information is searched for in Wikis, business contacts are made in Linkedin and friends communicate with StudiVZ. Web-2.0 tools will establish themselves as useful Internet applications over the long term. A current survey carried out by the security expert Avira, concludes that 14 percent of Internet users communicate more online than face-to-face. The German IT security expert posed the following question to 1,432 visitors on its website www.free-av.de: “Wikis, blogs and social networks – for many Internet users there is no way around the new Web-2.0 tools. Be honest, are you really into Web-2.0?”Web-2.0 is a popular buzzword with many facets: The term embraces all Internet applications that provide design and communication possibilities to the user. Wiki websites are the most popular applications for Web-2.0 users and video communities that are used in parallel to conventional media. Blogs are a popular source of information for specific purposes and ten percent of the Avira interviewees value the information found on them. The popularity and the increasing familiarity of bloggers contribute to use blogs on a regular basis. Data protectors have been warning against the data striptease in Web 2.0 since the online community Facebook used its members as an advertising media: 40 percent of the participants in the survey by Avira are against the digital exhibitionism in Web-2.0 and do not disclose their personal data in social networks, blogs or wikis. Twenty-eight percent of the participants in the survey think that “Facebook, self-portrayals on MySpace or status messages on Twitter don‘t make any sense”. For some, Web 2.0 applications are the new entertainment media of the future and for others, they are a mere waste of time.“Businesses sooner or later will have to use the new forms of knowledge and information exchange such as weblogs”, says Tjark Auerbach, founder and CEO of Avira. “For many German companies, Web-2.0 functions such as corporate blogs, are etiquette”.Spam senders discovered Web-2.0 is useful for their purposes: recently two American spammers were adjudged $ 230 million, because they had sent spam messages to members of the community website MySpace. Eight percent of the people who participated in the survey by Avira agreed that such incidents are reason enough for them to turn their back on Web-2.0. “The operators of Web-2.0 applications should protect the users from the abuse of news, spam and phishing emails”, recommends Auerbach. “Users should protect their private sphere and restrict their personal information to a minimum. Potential employers can use these portals, for instance, as a source of information on future employees.”Avira offers basic protection at http://www.freee-av.com/ to surf the Net without fear of malware. Users, who wish to have a greater amount of security on the Net, can purchase the Avira Internet Security Suite for 39.95 euro a year. In addition to the award-winning virus protection, the software offers a firewall as well as an anti-spam and a backup feature.

PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition™ 4.0 - New Version

This novice-friendly freeware antivirus tool still expects a certain level of sophistication from its users. PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition's interface presents a minimum amount of buttons to control the application.
http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">Checking your PC status, scanning for viruses, and switching on or off real-time protection are all a matter of clicking a single button. Scan speed and memory requirements are average for applications in this genre. Basic full-scan scheduling is easy to set. The virus database appears comprehensive, and the program automatically downloads updates.
This is the freeware version of the publisher's antivirus tool, but the differences are minor. Updates are downloaded from a slower server with this version, but not so slow as to cause user irritation. E-mail message tagging options are not configurable. E-mail and phone support isn't available.
Our big concern is the very basic Help function. Novice users will find it tough to navigate. Intermediate users will wish for better information before tackling any configuration changes. Nonetheless, users looking for an antivirus tool that can be set with default protection and that updates silently will be happy with this freeware.

Webroot Spy Sweeper with AntiVirus 5.5

http://www.webroot.com/shoppingcart/tryme.php?bjpc=64021&vcode=DT03A

This rock-solid antispyware tool gets an upgrade for Windows Vista compatibility, but with its spyware-removal limitation, the protection offered is only as good as the money you pay for it.
The interface is easy to understand, and the Home section should steer new users to the necessities: starting a scan, checking shield status, and updating definitions. As in older versions, the Quarantine section will let you restore any components accidentally altered after a system scan. The Sweep option includes a flexible scheduler, the ability to change the default scanning method level, and other options to customize the program. In addition to its real-time, browser, and ActiveX shields, the app offers several barriers to other threats such as Windows Messenger Service exploits, keyloggers, rogue start-up items, and pesky rootkits.
There were no problems running the app on Vista, but be sure to uninstall any other third-party antivirus apps to avoid conflicts. Unfortunately, Spy Sweeper maintains its detection-only trial limitation, making it impossible to test how well it actually removes malware. Anybody concerned with keeping malicious software and viruses off their computer shouldn't bother with the trial unless they're pretty sure they're going to buy the full version.
