More than 20 000 people have now registered to try the new beta versions of the Panda Software 2008 consumer product line-up. This range comprises Panda Antivirus 2008, Panda Antivirus+Firewall 2008 and Panda Internet Security 2008.
"We are very happy with the response from users. Getting more than 20 000 registrations is a great achievement that demonstrates the interest among users for this new product line.
"We have no doubt the number of registered users will increase throughout July," says Jeremy Matthews, CE of Panda Software South Africa.
All solutions in the 2008 consumer product line-up are Vista-compatible and include a series of new features, such as greater malware detection capacity, new low-level scanning for rootkits and a system for blocking malicious Web pages, to boost protection against spyware and phishing. Panda Internet Security 2008 also has a tune-up feature to improve computer performance and a local back-up option.
"I have to take my hat off to them, because they have a first-class product. I have noticed no system slowdown, and have had no problems or bugs," enthuses one of the betatesters who has tried these solutions.
Panda Software will be holding a prize draw for two PSPs (Play Station Portables) among users who download beta versions of Panda Antivirus + Firewall 2008 or Panda Internet Security 2008 and who, after registering, report any incidents.
