PC Tools Internet Security 2009 | 39.54 MB

PC Tools has a knack for producing clean, accessible user interfaces, and we found the simple front-end of its Internet Security suite a breath of fresh air. True, it offers only a basic set of components, and comparatively few configuration options, but we have no objection to a minimal package if it keeps overheads low.

Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Despite PC Tools Internet Security’s narrow feature set it somehow made the biggest impact on boot time and memory of any package here. A full minute after the desktop appeared, system RAM usage was over 1GB and the CPU meter was hovering at around 20%.

As if to trump this dubious achievement, the suite went on to achieve a malware detection score of just 68% - landing it in last place in this test by a wide margin. Three of the samples it missed were caught by every single other package. And more than once it insisted we’d have to reboot to remove infected files, which no other suite found necessary.

The web threat test went slightly better: here, PC Tools’ suite scored 34%, ranking it tenth in a field of 15. We didn’t like the appearance of the browser defender plug-in, though, which added a thick, brightly-coloured bar to the top of every web page.

The suite’s best performance was in our network scan, where it revealed only the same vulnerabilities as the likes of McAfee and Norton. That’s still only an average degree of protection, though.

PC Tools has made some great utilities in the past and we hope it will again. Internet Security 2009, however, is definitely one to avoid.

Virtual CD 10.0.0.38 Full Retail | 74 Mb

With Virtual CD you can not only create and use virtual CDs, but also burn virtual CDs and DVDs. Regardless of whether you yourself would like to test a created DVD, to put together an audio CD or just not happen to have a blank disk for a data CD at hand, with Virtual CD you always have a burner with a blank disk that you can use from any program. You can use the CDs or DVDs created in this manner immediately with Virtual CD and burn them on a physical medium, if necessary.

Using the expanded quick start program, you can nearly use any Virtual CD function without having to start the Virtual CD Management or the toolbox. With a simple left click on the Virtual CD symbol you arrive at theprogram menu where you can utilize all important Virtual CD functions. On the other hand, if you click on the symbol with the right mouse key, the drive menu opens. Here you can e.g. insert and eject images or insert blank CDs in the virtual burner.

Not only does Virtual CD serve you with its well-engineered ergonomy, but it also keeps the security of your data in mind. To protect sensitive data and to keep files confidential, you can use a virtual DVD RAM blank CD as an encrypted fixed disk with up to 17.5 GB. After entering your password, you can read and write your data on it as if you were using a regular fixed disk. In the background, Virtual CD codes the data on-thy-fly with the safe AES 256bit-encryption without your noticing anything.
From now on you can use Virtual CD also under Vista and 64-bit Windows operating system.

Functions

- “Data safe” mode
With the new data safe mode, encrypted drives can be created automatically. This makes it
easy to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access. Encrypted drives do not differ from
ordinary drives in operation or handling.

- Sound file mode
Virtual CD 10 enables fast conversion of any audio file type into the flexible and widely used
MP3 and OGG Vorbis formats. The user can determine the desired quality for all formats.

- Direct burning functions
The revised Editor in Version 10 has a media-burning function that lets you burn your choice
of data directly onto a CD, DVD or Blu-ray Disc. Thus one slender burning program serves all
your needs.

- Expanded ISO support
Virtual CD 10 lets you store descriptions, comments and passwords with your ISO files. This
means you have practically the same level of convenience with standardized ISO files that you
have with genuine Virtual CD images.

- Flexible allocation of images to drives
Starting now, images can also be “inserted” in any physical drive

- Integrating external programs
You can now integrate external programs in the Virtual CD interface, both in the Quick Launch
menu and in CD Management. You can also pass arguments on the command line when a
program is called, for easy automation of tasks.

- Extended API
The Virtual CD API for professional and semi-professional use has once again been expanded
and improved. Now it is even easier to use external programs to control and operate Virtual
CD.

Virtual CD 10: What’s new

Technology
- Compatible with Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP
Virtual CD is compatible with all current Windows operating systems and has the certification
that attests to maximum stability and performance.
- Support for HD media: Blu-ray (BD) and HD DVD

Virtual CD 10 goes beyond the classic CD and DVD formats and allows virtualization of Bluray
and HD DVD media as well.
- Optimized readout for better compatibility with special formats
Revised readout algorithms ensure fast and reliable image creation with targeted support for
the unique properties of special formats.

Usability
- Completely revised user interface
o Clearer layout and more flexibility

- Customizable double-click
With Virtual CD 10, you can define which action is triggered by a double-click on an image, a
drive or a desktop icon. You can even define different actions dependent on the program
window in which the element is double-clicked (Windows Explorer or CD Control Center).
- Direct drive access through desktop icons
Virtual CD displays the PC’s drives as desktop icons, allowing fast access. You can define
whether drives are shown only when they contain media or empty drives are displayed as well.
This function can also be activated for physical drives, including hard disks and removable
media (such as flash drives)
