Calling it "a comprehensive, simplified solution,"
Trend Micro said its updated PC-cillin software now
includes privacy protection to guard user passwords,
bank account numbers and other personal information.
The software also includes a personal firewall to
protect users from intrusion.
Folding spam and spyware filtering into its desktop
security software, Trend Micro (Nasdaq: TMIC) has
updated its PC-cillin Internet Security 2004 package
to ward off the Internet's other evils in addition to
computer viruses and worms.
The Cupertino, California-based security company will
be among the first to offer antivirus and spyware
protection bundled in a single security package. The
new software is designed to defend against the secret
tracking programs -- called spyware or adware -- used
by some software sellers and Internet sites to track
user Internet activity or, in the worst cases, to
provide backdoor access to user systems.
