TOTALSECURITY 2012 KEEPS YOU AND YOUR COMPUTER SAFE

Going online these days is a risky business.  There are all kinds of malware trying to steal your personal and financial information.  The computer viruses of yesterday tried to crash your computer by deleting the files on your hard drive or perpetrating pranks that printed funny messages.  Those days of computer viruses are long gone.  Today's perpetrators don't want you to know that your computer is infected.  They don't want you to know because if you did, you would try and correct the problem.  Today's malware writers include phishing sites, remote access trojans that take over your computer remotely and create botnets to steal your information as well as use it to steal other's financial data, all without you knowing anything is wrong. And because you don't know your computer is infected, you don't do anything about it.  And the crimes keep going on and on.
 
What you need is something that will see if your computer is infected, delete the infection if it is, and then protect your computer from ever being infected again.  That's a pretty tall order these days since these kinds of malware continue to grow at an alarming rate.  There are literally thousands of new malware programs created every day.  So what you need is something that will protect your computer from everything nasty on the web and do all of that without bogging your computer down to a crawl.  And therein lies the rub.
 
How many of you have installed so-called anti-virus programs only to finally remove them because your really fast computer has been brought down to its virtual knees?  This is of great concern to malware protection companies and only now are we starting to see some products emerge that can handle this horrible situation.  I'd like to tell you about the latest one from a company called G Data. You may not recognize the name here in America but you will.  G Data has just introduced their newest anti-malware product called TotalSecurity 2012 and it's truly amazing.
 
First of all, some impressive statistics show that G Data's product line tested to a 99.7 percent virus detection rate via its unique dual-engine technology.  Engine A and Engine B work in tandem to seek out new malware on an HOURLY basis, not weekly like most others. TotalSecurity 2012 has been created for the user that lives online.  If you do your banking, shopping, communications via Instant Messaging, prefer emails to phone calls, then TotalSecurity is made for you.
 
TotalSecurity is G Data's all-in-one solution to all aspects of your online life and detects and takes care of all your online needs, from spyware to spam.  When you look at TotalSecurity's Security Center, you can instantly see what's being protected.  And most importantly, you can immediately see what it's costing you in terms of your computer's CPU time in the form of a live, animated graph.  On my computer for example, I can see both the total amount of processor time dedicated to G Data and the total amount of processor time dedicated to system use.  When using the computer, both were at 0 to 3 percent.  It was only when I was not using the computer that TotalSecurity began doing its malware protection scanning. TotalSecurity even puts up a screen saver letting you know it's working.  The moment I touch the mouse or keyboard, it stops so I can do my work.  Of course any background programs running are allowed to continue.  Just looking at the Security Center graphs tells it all.
 
TotalSecurity also offers family options for parents who want to control their child's browsing habits by limiting web surfing times and allow or block undesired web content.  And there's so much more.
 
Bottom line is that G Data's TotalSecurity 2012 represents the next generation in malware protection and security.  G Data is so secure in effectiveness of their products that they offer a fully functional trial copy for 30 days.  Try it for yourself and you'll see that it really does protect you from what's out there. And when you do decide to purchase TotalSecurity 2012 for $39.95, here's an exclusive tip for my readers. Just put in the promotional code "crossman" at the checkout screen and you'll get it for 50 percent off.  Now you can relax and know that you're computing with total security.
