Avira revamps AntiVir

One of the fastest rising security stars is Avira's AntiVir antivirus and antimalware. Since earning high marks from AV-Comparitives in 2006, it's stayed at the top of the pack and consistently earned scores near or at the top of the charts for both on-demand comparisons and retrospective/proactive tests. The latest update includes an overhauled detection engine that runs faster, a zippier definition file updater, and a retooled interface.

I've been impressed with AntiVir since I found it last October, and the new version works even better. It completed a full system scan on my Windows Vista computer in about 20 minutes less than under Version 7, and definition file updates took about half the time they used to. Obviously, that's just an empirical eyeballing of the speed changes, but a third of an hour faster is certainly not insignificant and addresses my main problem with the previous version: that updates were painfully slow.

Avira states that the performance difference is because of modularization of the engine, which allows it to search faster and receive critical updates more quickly. A new failsafe system ensures that even during program code updates, the virus and malware detection engines are never offline. Whether this affects how it deals with viruses and malware remains to be seen, but since it sits at the top of the pack, everything should be fine as long as it doesn't get worse.

The big change in the interface is the addition of a left-side navigation that makes it much easier to drill down to the features that you want to focus on. The spreadsheet-style layout hasn't changed, but it's organized better. The Events log defaults to show all, but check boxes make searching for and focusing on updates, for example, or detections, convenient and uncomplicated to manage. A row of icons above the spreadsheet helps users manage reports and get to more specific details.

Other new support includes built-in outgoing e-mail checking courtesy of a new SMTP function for the MailGuard, although this might be hamstrung in corporate environments, and support for Vista Service Pack 1. Changes to the Pro version includes the addition of a Web site scanner, while the Premium Security Suite includes the WebGuard and integrated file backup services.

Hands-down, Avira AntiVir has been not just the best freeware security program I've used, it stands up better than favorably to the big-box software competitors.

Comodo Firewall Version 3.0

Don't let the name fool you, It is one of the best freeware programs around that can also hold its own against other pay firewalls. Previous user complaints about resource hogging and a confusing interface have been addressed and this application has never been easier to use.

It still provides a smorgasbord of information and options for advanced users, but it's simple enough for beginners, and runs smoothly and silently in the background. When you first install it, the Comodo pop-ups come often as the program "learns" your online behavior, but those soon stop. Summary, Firewall, Defense +, and Miscellaneous tabs provide links to relevant security issues so users can drill down to learn more about how the firewall is performing and what exactly it's doing. The Host Intrusion Prevention System supposedly protects against unknown threats--obviously, it's hard to tell if it works unless an unknown threat gets in, but it didn't seem to affect system performance negatively.

What's for free?

Comodo is delivering this highly rated firewall free as a cornerstone of our initiative to empower consumers to create a safe and trusted online experience whenever you go online. This new initiative will also make available other free desktop security tools to avoid leading threats such as phishing attacks.

The free tools include: the ability to authenticate web identities in real time (www.vengine.com), free email certificates for secure email encryption, secure backup for backing up files on your pc and iVault for password management and launching secured internet sessions. Together, all these solution could cost upwards of $500 per year to achieve a comparable level of internet security and safety. And all these products are offered free for the lifetime of the PC - without any annual subscription fees or licenses.

Why is it free?

You must be wondering - how can we stay in business by giving away high quality solutions that all other software vendors sell. Simply, Comodo's main revenue comes from authenticating web business with SSL certificates (e.g. we put the padlock on websites).

The more consumers are comfortable being online and shopping online, the more businesses that will be created that will need our services.

“With Autodesk 3ds Max 9, we’ve focused on addressing the challenges our customers face when working with larger amounts of complex data, as well as scaling to bigger production teams,” said Marc Petit, Autodesk’s Media & Entertainment vice president. “Digital artists using 3ds Max 9 will gain improvements in core performance, productivity and pipeline efficiency. 3ds Max 9 enables artists to manage the increasing complexity of 3D data sets characteristic of next-generation game, film, broadcast and design development.”

“Autodesk 3ds Max is the tool we use to create all the 3D models and animations in our games, and we’re excited about the advancements that 3ds Max 9 has to offer,” said Silicon Knights game studio president Denis Dyack. “Since the early 1990s, 3ds Max has played a major role in the visual success of all our company’s games, including the hit titles Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem, Bloody Omen: Legacy of Kain, Dark Legions and Fantasy Empires. 3ds Max is now playing a crucial role yet again with our upcoming title Too Human, a next-gen, third-person epic action game.”

Robert Graves, 3ds Max 9 beta tester and creative director at GMJ Design Ltd. in London, said, “We are in an era of increasingly visual design communication. Autodesk 3ds Max 9 helps GMJ Design deliver visually compelling content to our customers. The new architecture and design shaders, enhancements to the daylight system and improved mental ray rendering in 3ds Max 9, along with the superior tools to manage large datasets, help us deliver the realistic content clients expect from our 3D design visualizations.” GMJ Design used 3ds Max to create city models of London and Liverpool.

This version of Max has 64-bit support as announced which makes it easier to work with the huge datasets required for next-generation digital content creation. Rendering is also greatly improved with the mental ray 3.5 rendering core.

In addition, Max offers a wide range of features which increase the core performance, productivity and pipeline efficiency:

• A layered blending system that can be added to custom rigs and controllers within 3ds Max
• Optimizations in wireframe and edge display, enabling faster feedback within the viewport
• XAF files that can be saved and loaded onto bipeds, allowing for easy transfer of information to and from custom rigs
