Every time you connect to the Internet, browse websites, download files, read emails, do online banking and a number of other things you can potentially get bombarded with viruses and spyware, or become a fraud or identity theft victim. That’s why it’s so important to keep your computer fully protected.

Auslogics Antivirus is one of the most comprehensive antiviruses available on the market. Reliable and feature-packed, it will protect you from viruses, trojans, spyware, identity theft, and other known and unknown threats, and can also operate in Safe Mode to remove resilient viruses. Like all Auslogics’ products it’s fast, doesn’t affect computer performance, and has sleek Windows 7-style user interface.

Let’s have a look at what it has to offer:

1. Real-time Protection

Auslogics Antivirus offers constant real-time PC protection. It scans all accessed files, emails, web sites, and IM chats for possible threats and blocks any attempts to modify system files. The program uses both heuristics and a virus/spyware database to provide maximum protection. Its Active Virus Control feature protects from new threats by analysing the activity of all running applications.

We are happy to present you the new Auslogics Disk Defrag 3^beta! We call it “new” because Disk Defrag 3^beta is not just a defragmenter but a fully featured disk optimizer. We’ve supplied it with advanced techniques of disk optimization that only paid analogs have. With Disk Defrag 3^beta you can replace regular data files from the MFT Reserved Zone, consolidate free space and optimize system files placement. Let’s have a closer look at how these optimization techniques may affect your PC performance.

System files smart placement

Commonly used by Windows, system files may be scattered all over the disk and intermixed with data files. Disk Defrag 3^beta arranges system files by defragmenting and moving them to the faster part of the disk.  This minimizes the time needed for HDD to access system files and improves overall computer performance.

Free space consolidation

It is not a secret that a simple defragmentation leaves the free space on the disk highly fragmented. It means that there are many free space «holes» all over the disk. Windows fills in those free spaces with newly created or extended files. The more fragmented the free space is, the more fragmented new files will be.

Disk Defrag 3^beta merges all those free space «holes» into a large contiguous block during optimization process. This allows the file system to create new files without fragmentation. As a result, free space consolidation dramatically reduces further disk fragmentation.

Being an active computer user I create and download files every day. I’m sure you do the same.  But then after some period of time you notice that you don’t have much disk space left – your hard drive gets packed with documents, pictures, music, movies, and other stuff. Some would just go and get a larger hard drive, a second one, or an external one – lots of options there, but they all cost money. Others start frantically deleting various files and in the end delete something important. No good. So, how about a FREE and safe way to increase free disk space?

We at Auslogics came up with a new free program – Auslogics Duplicate File Finder. With the help of this tool you will be able to recover gigabytes of space taken up by unnecessary duplicates.

Sydney, Australia – January 31, 2009 – Auslogics Software announces that its computer optimization product Auslogics BoostSpeed now fully supports and optimizes the new operating system Microsoft Windows 7 (Beta).

While Windows 7 is faster than Vista, it still requires an ongoing maintenance, such as disk and registry clean-ups and defragmentation, to keep running fast and stable. Without frequent disk and registry clean-ups junk files start taking up disk space and registry errors compromise system stability. Auslogics BoostSpeed removes junk files and fixes registry errors, as well as defragments both hard disk drives and the system registry, placing the file fragments together for faster disk access.

Apart from fully supporting Windows 7, BoostSpeed 4.3 now supports the new Google Chrome browser, Internet Explorer 8 (Beta), FireFox 3, Opera, and Safari for Windows. Unlike other similar software, BoostSpeed checks hardware and Internet Connection specifications first and then applies changes tailored to the particular computer configuration.

The new version also introduces Service Manager. It’s a new tool from Auslogics that makes managing Windows services safe and easy even for novice users. This new utility contains services descriptions and rating, and most importantly, detailed recommendations written in plain English. Now there will be no need to spend hours researching what each service does.

Another welcome change is that Auslogics’ Disk Defrag, believed to be the fastest defragmenter on the market, can now be run from console with command line parameters, can defragment single file or folder, and can be scheduled to run unattended.

Sydney, Australia – January 6, 2009 – Auslogics releases Disk Defrag with command line support. The command line options are among the most comprehensive and are suitable for silently defragmenting servers, workstations and personal computers.

Personal computers and especially file servers require frequent disk defragmentation for maximum disk access speed. Recognizing this, Auslogics team has come up with a new version of Disk Defrag that supports command line options. The new version can be run manually on a personal computer, remotely or via a batch file on a server.

Sydney, Australia – September 4, 2008 – Auslogics says it will fully support the new web browser Google Chrome poised to become a powerful Internet Explorer rival.

The users of Auslogics BoostSpeed may be the first to experience the full Google Chrome support. This computer performance optimization software will protect the privacy of Google Chrome users, as well as optimize the new browser speed, all by the end of September 2008.

According to Google, the new browser can add value for users while driving innovation on the web.  However, many believe that this is the company’s next step towards dominating the Internet and that it will place Google directly against Microsoft.

Auslogics believes that web applications have long outgrown browser technology, which has stood still for quite a few years. The company says that it will provide full browser support and help make Google Chrome run as fast as possible.
