LinkScanner Pro is a safe browsing, safe searching utility that provides real-time analysis of network traffic, web site content and behavior to protect users from a wide-range of online threats including malicious content, phishing, social engineering and targeted software exploits.

LinkScanner Pro complements existing security products like a firewall or anti-virus. Firewalls don't see these threats because they use trusted browser connections. Anti-virus and anti-spyware programs only detect them after the damage has been done to the computer. With LinkScanner Pro, web surfing just became a whole lot safer.

How It Works:

Automatic Web Search Inspection	Always-On Threat Blocking	Real-Time Site Ratings

Features:

• Always-on expanded threat blocking – Protects you against exploits, hacked web sites, phishing, social engineering, malicious lure sites, and adware server attacks.
• Real-time site risk analysis – Gives you up-to-the-second advice on how safe it is to visit a site.
• Internet connectivity monitor – Displays all programs sending and receiving data on your network.
• Web search results inspection – Tells you which search results sites are safe, dangerous and why.
• On-demand URL scanning – Lets you check any individual url for site insecurities before you go there

LinkScanner Pro's technology is highly dynamic, enabling it to react quickly and effectively to protect computers without introducing time-wasting false alarms or out-dated databases. Its protection and site ratings are based on a current inspection of the web site, its content and the data stream entering your computer. Using this approach, LinkScanner Pro can provide a timely and accurate analysis of every web site and alert you of suspicious activity or block attempts to exploit software vulnerabilities and compromise your computer.

The dynamic Internet (often called Web 2.0) of integrated RSS feeds, distributed advertising networks, blogs, forums and wikis demands this scrutiny because of the growing trend to assemble content from multiple sources, at the last second. Add the serious threat of hacked web sites and phishing scams to the explosion of user-generated content, and you can see why it is imperative to analyze a web site at the moment you visit. Only then can the true safety of a web site or page be determined.
