eset cyber security is the premier antivirus and antispyware software suite for mac

Although it includes personal firewall, antispam, antispyware in addition to antivirus protection, Eset Smart Security doesnt necessarily compare one-to-one with the Internet Security suites we reviewed this year.

However, it is clearly designed to be something more than just Esets antivirus product: NOD32 already provides that.

In performance and effectiveness testing, Eset Smart Security rises to the top of the heap, but those looking to add anitphishing and other features common in Internet Security suites today will have to do just that--add them.

However, those looking for best of breed antivirus, antispyware, antispam, and a personal firewall will be pleased with Eset Smart Security.

The right windowpane is reserved for the active feature in use.

In Advanced mode, across the top is a toolbar to access the more advanced configuration options.

At first glance, the interface is easy for anyone new to desktop security protection.

However, digging deeper we were happy to find all the advanced tweaks that anyone could ask for within reach.

Should you need to remove Smart Security from your computer, there is an uninstall option.

After a reboot, we found almost no evidence of the product on our machine.

Compared with other Internet Security suites on the market, this may seem lightweight, but the individual quality of these extra features makes up for the quantity seen in other suites.

Eset continues to improve on its ThreatSense technology, allowing Eset Smart Security to be proactive, yet use very few system resources.

We like that during a scan you can either manually toggle the scan to the foreground or push it into the background.

As with Panda Internet Security 2009, we liked the granularity of the personal firewall, giving users the capability to monitor specific services as they access the Web.
