Press Release Body: a-squared Anti-Malware 3.5: Protection from damaging software now with community-based intelligence! Two a-squared products have entered the next generation. Versions 3.5 of a-squared Anti-Malware and a-squared Free are now available. They protect your system from Trojans, Worms, Keyloggers, Dialers, Rootkits and Spyware. a-squared Anti-Malware now relies on the intelligence of the a-squared community to reduce false alarms. Other new features are better self-protection, recognition of mouse and keyboard simulators, and an extended Paranoid Mode. a-squared Free 3.5 can also now be started from a USB stick. Every computer that has contact with the Internet is in constant danger of being infected with malignant Malware. a-squared Anti-Malware 3.5 establishes efficient protection against all these damaging programs and now provides extra security for the PCs of over four million users. Daily updates via the Internet ensure that even very new damaging code can be recognized and eliminated via a signature comparison. This is important because hundreds of new Malware variants create danger in the workplace every day. Backdoors, Bots and Tracking Cookies are also recognized with this method. However, a-squared Anti-Malware does not just rely on Signatures. The unique Malware-Intrusion Detection System (Malware-IDS) goes one step further by using behavioral analysis to identify and block potentially dangerous programs before they can do any damage. a-squared Anti-Malware 3.5: Use the intelligence of the masses - Community-based alert reduction: Anti-Malware programs that also use behavior analysis can be somewhat over-enthusiastic with alert messages and often raise alarms for programs that are actually completely harmless. The system now uses community-based alert reduction to prevent this. This system queries the \"intelligence of the masses\". This works in the following manner: When an alert occurs, the program checks if other users have run the same software and, if so, whether they decided to allow or deny the program to start when the warning was raised. a-squared Anti-Malware 3.5 then provides an appropriate recommendation based on this analysis. A percent value can be specified in the program. For example, the protection software can automatically allow a program to run when 90 percent of all users have also decided to allow the same program to run. A free 30-day trial version of a-squared Anti-Malware 3.5 is available in the Internet. A 1-year license for the full version costs US $39.95.
