Trend Micro's AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2008 is easy to install and easy to use. It detects and removes viruses from all sorts of files, no matter if you received them in your email, downloaded them from the Internet, installed them from removable media or already stored them on your hard drive. The program includes good default settings for the average user, such as an automatically scheduled full-system scan. Trend Micro constantly updates its virus definitions to include new threats. Antivirus, antispyware, and antirootkit scans are combined into one process at the end of which information about each threat is displayed. It covers all your needs and the best part is it does everything on it`s own.

There is this very nice feature - the ability to clean up various files as well as deleting log files created by different instant messengers. There is no firewall included in the package so you have to use a dedicated one or the built-in windows firewall, which is probably a better option anyway.

Enhanced software history cleaner, improved Web browser cookie management, customizable security warnings are maybe the more noticeable features, so Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2008 is a continuation of the same - safe, solid AV protection with enhanced Antispyware features like pop-up blocking and safe guards against phishing.

Trend Micro offers free telephone, e-mail, and online-chat support for its products. Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2008 comes for around 40$ and now it only includes one PC license which may be considered as a downside.
