Outpost Security Suite Pro 6.0

Outpost Security Suite Pro is an advanced security system for your PC. It provides an antivirus, antimalware, antispyware and advanced network and Internet security features. It has a very good firewall that prevents all kinds of attacks to your computer. Its antivirus system is very good, and there are fewer false alarms than in AVG.

It has a lot of settings to customize. The firewall section provides you with a real-time view of the network activity and ports used. “Host protection” shows all the network connected processes. There is an antimalware (or virus) quarantine. Anti Spam settings can also be customized. This page shows an overview of the database status, that is the amount of spam received, the number of spam letters and words, etc.

There is an event viewer which shows the Windows event logs, while it keeps a detailed log on the program activity grouped efficiently, so that we can find any virus or security threat /change that has been detected/blocked.

One of the features I liked was the set of add-ons to Internet Explorer . One of them is the “Web Control”. We can change the Internet Explorer settings like those of the Cookies ActiveX, JavaScript, Flash, Pop-up windows, etc easily. All these settings can be manually customized from tools>settings, but it may take time to find out the ones we need, especially in the “Advanced” tab. Another feature is the “Trash Can”, where we can drop unwanted ads, so that links of ads can be blocked.

All these features make it one of the best antivirus systems available.
