SCOTIA, N.Y., Aug. 9, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- BillP Studios announced today that results of recent tests show WinPatrol PLUS with R.I.D. will detect 100% of the top spyware threats on a Microsoft Windows-based PC. Recent results by independent testers confirmed WinPatrol's "Real-time Infiltration Detection" methodology is effective in alerting users to newly installed software.
BillP's popular WinPatrol software monitors and detects changes on computer systems that may indicate attacks by dangerous programs. While traditional security programs have relied on signature files of known threats, WinPatrol has been alerting users to system changes since 1997. The addition of R.I.D. from BillP Studios is another break through in protection for WinPatrol users.
"I'm thrilled that our R.I.D. technology has proven to work without impacting normal computing productivity," commented Bill Pytlovany, CEO. "Our customers are fed up with programs which install themselves as 'always-run' status," Pytlovany noted.
R.I.D. testing included severe parasites such as CoolWebSearch, WinTools, ISTBar as well as other threats known to terrorize computer users. Complete disclosure of test results can be found at http://www.winpatrol.com/rid.html
The newest free version of WinPatrol 9.7 is available for download at a variety of online sites including www.WinPatrol.com. WinPatrol PLUS with R.I.D. can be added with no additional download for $24.95. The PLUS upgrade is a one-time fee valid for all future releases.
