PC Antivirus Reviews – #1 Antivirus Program Scoring 98%!
With this release of VIPRE, GFI has managed to pack a mighty blow against viruses, spyware, and all forms of malware in one powerful punch. Not only has VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware come out of the corner swinging, but they’ve done it with the grace and expertise consumers demand from antivirus software.”
CNet – 4.5 out of 5 stars
“While other standalone antispyware vendors merely added antivirus to their existing offering, GFI created an entirely new product, Vipre. Ordinarily new antivirus products, such as Microsoft’s Windows Live OneCare, suffer through a few years of “getting the code right.” We don’t see that here; in our opinion, Vipre has vaulted to the upper third of the antivirus products on the market today.”
