2. Permanently protect your PC
Unfortunately, this point is often ignored:
Make sure that your PC continues to be protected from new infections. This requires a multi-level Guard module, as integrated into Emsisoft Anti-Malware.
- 1st level: The Surf protection blocks access to known damaging software and fraudulent websites.
- 2nd level: The File guard scans all modified files and downloads to prevent Malware files from starting.
Details on the Emsisoft dual-engine technology - 3rd level: If the pest is so new that it is not yet detected by the scanner, you still have a trump card up your sleeve. The
Behavioral analysis module detects damaging behavior and raises an alarm when something suspicious occurs.
