- Enhanced Scanning with Intelli-scan: PC Tools AntiVirus 4 now includes Intelli-scan. Intelli-scan is a highly optimized scanning mode design to quickly scan your critical areas of your PC for active threats. A newly designed scan screen also provides you with the option to perform one of three scans: a Full or in-depth scan, a Custom Scan which lets you select specific locations to be included in scans, or an Intelli-Scan.
- High-performance mode for File Guard: File Guard now includes a new higher performance mode of operation where it only scans active processes in real-time, instead of every file. This provides comprehensive real-time protection without excessive use of system resources.
- Enhanced Threat Quarantine: The enhanced quarantine feature of PC Tools AntiVirus 4 allows selective quarantining of infected items into a contained area before disinfection. Once items are quarantined, they no longer pose any threat, and can be restored at a later time, if required.
- New Email Guard: Email Guard, previously available as an add-on, has now been fully integrated into PC Tools AntiVirus. Email Guard provides comprehensive protection against threats attempting to access your computers via incoming emails. It also protects your contacts by stripping any virus from outgoing emails.
- New Scanning Engine: PC Tools AntiVirus has a new scanning engine to provide enhanced virus threat detection. The new engine uses less system memory and requires smaller updates for new threat definitions.
