SOFTWARE REVIEW

DeviceLock 5.7 review

		Product	Date	Editors' Rating	Members' Rating	Price
		DeviceLock 5.7 Office notebooks could benefit from DeviceLock's ability to restrict data flowing through USB and other physical ports.	12 Aug 2005	7.0		£21
		McAfee VirusScan 9.0 VirusScan 9.0 is a worthwhile upgrade for current VirusScan users, who will benefit from the improved spyware detection. But VirusScan lacks a firewall, making it an incomplete security solution.	07 Oct 2004	7.7		£34
		Norton AntiVirus 2005 Norton AntiVirus 2005 is a tenacious virus fighter that, given its premium price, should also -- but doesn't -- include a firewall. It's a good bet for Norton users who want to upgrade, though.	06 Oct 2004	7.7		£44
		McAfee VirusScan 8.0 VirusScan 8.0 sports a trimmer profile, a simpler interface and fast performance, but support is more of a hassle than before.	29 Sep 2003	7.5		£34
		Norton AntiVirus 2004 NAV 2004 is still a good choice for first timers, but its minor improvements mean that NAV 2003 users need not upgrade.	29 Sep 2003	7.8		£44
		Sophos Anti-Virus 3.7 This well-designed anti-virus program is best suited for networked PCs rather than standalone systems. It’s relatively expensive, but worth the money.	16 Sep 2003	7.3		£60
		Chirson PC Immobiliser PC Immobiliser is a simple device that should increase the security of any PC or notebook, and make it less attractive to thieves. The use of iButtons to restrict access to anyone who doesn’t have the correct token works seamlessly once set up.	28 Jan 2003	7.3		£59
		McAfee VirusScan Home Edition 7.0 McAfee VirusScan 7.0 is a top-notch virus killer for first-time users, but unless you use Outlook Express or Eudora, VirusScan 6.0 users won't need to upgrade.	20 Jan 2003	7.8		£31
		Panda Antivirus Platinum 7.0 This virus hunter's new interface is simple to use, but Panda Antivirus Platinum stumbles on support and detection skills.	09 Jan 2003	7.0		£40
