| applesmash's Full Review: Macmillan BlackICE Defender Full Version for PC |
This program was a real eye-opener. I never realized how many attempts there were to access my computer! I had run into a few instances where wierd things were happening to my data. This program once installed, 30 minutes later had already warned me of two attempts to access my hard drive through a technique called "port hopping". Well, It turned out that cable modem users such as myself are at a great risk for being hacking.
So, definitly buy this program if you have a cable modem.
In 24 hours, its detected 14 attempts on my computer!
It is easy to use, quick install, but the one problem I had was having to download it off the internet, because it isn't, at this time, sold in stores.
This software blocks illegal access, documents attempts, and even tells you what you can do to report these cases.
