This edition of TrustPort Antivirus is designed for individual workstations and servers, in addition to the entry point of your business network.

This anti-malware application has the ability to protect your computer from incoming viruses, Trojans, worms and other web-based threats. Apart from a real-time guard, it features different scanning modes, a quarantine, automatic post-scan actions, and others.

The installer can be carried out with default settings, or you can enter advanced mode to disable the pre-scan for system folders at Windows startup, allow to start any user process until the real-time guard is active, or to enable the Windows autorun feature. Plus, you can apply a proxy configuration for connecting to the Internet.

Once installed, the app creates a systray icon for quick access and automatically turns on its real-time safeguard against incoming threats.

The main window is user-friendly and lets you run the on-access scanner and application inspector, open the quarantine, view logs, put together a BartPE plugin or WindowsPE CD, check for software updates, as well as configure advanced settings.

It's possible to perform a quick scan on the commonly affected files and folders, verify all disks, just the local ones or just removable media, as well as to scan only the registry or selected targets.

During a scan job, you can ask the tool to automatically turn off the PC on task completion. Plus, you can pause it to temporarily allocate system resources to other apps. Any identified threats can be sent to the quarantine for closer inspection.

At the end of the scan job, you can examine a report with the scan options (e.g. file types, heuristic analysis mode), results (e.g. drives, boot sectors) and statistics (e.g. scanned, infected and repaired boot sectors, files and registry keys).

The on-access scanner (i.e. real-time guard) can be easily enabled and disabled with one click. As far as scan settings are concerned, you can redefine the scan scope (e.g. only files with specific extensions, archives), and change the default requested action on detected threats (report only, ask users, repair, move to quarantine, rename, delete), among others.

We haven't come across any unpleasant surprises as far as stability goes, thanks to the fact that the antivirus program didn't trigger Windows to freeze, crash or display error messages. Surprisingly, it had minimal impact on the machine's performance, using low CPU and RAM.

To sum it up, TrustPort Antivirus for Small Business Server comes equipped with powerful options and many configuration settings to help you protect your systems from the perils of the Internet.
