Digital Patrol is designed to protect you from nasties such as viruses, Trojans, worms and other malware that can infect your PC.
It's really simple to use. Simply select the drive(s) or folder(s) to be scanned and sit back while Digital Patrol does its work. Should anything be found you have the option to remove it. It can even remove Trojan files that are locked, something which many security products can't do.
Digital Patrol claims to protect you from over 53,000 different items of malware, and the database is updated every 24 hours for maximum protection.
If you choose to buy the software after the trial period, you also get access to its heuristic scanning abilities. This enables the program to possibly detect new, previously unknown malware simply by analysing its behaviour.
Note: If you're using Windows 95 or NT, you'll need Internet Explorer 5 or later to run this software.
