Wales [ Reply ]. While I was working on testing, an upsell screen appeared warning that my PC was not protected against ransomware, advising me to upgrade to a paid edition. Just to see what would happen, I launched those. The antivirus did catch one of them, but all the others did their dirty deeds without a peep from Panda. In this test, products get the opportunity to either fend off malware by keeping the browser away from the nasty URL or to wipe out the malware sample at the download stage.
Older versions of the free antivirus used to include a feature called Safe Browsing, but this was removed some years ago. This time around it behaved admirably. After completion of each download, it checked the file for malware. The check took a little over five seconds, after which Panda cleanly removed any detected threats.
I point this out because quite a few other products rip malware screaming from the download process, causing Windows or the browser to display errors that may confuse some users. That score puts it in the bottom quarter of current products, unfortunately. The absence of Safe Browsing in Panda's free edition means that you get no help with identifying phishing scams. You'll just have to rely on the phishing protection built into your browser, and stay alert for those the browser misses. An antivirus protects your data that resides on your device, but it can't do a thing for that data as it roams the wilds of the internet.
Nobody, not even the owner of the shady coffeeshop Wi-Fi network you're using, can peek at or tweak your data. As a bonus, your traffic seems to be coming from the VPN server's IP address, so sites that try to track your location and activities using your personal IP address simply fail.
All of Panda's security products, even the lowly free antivirus, include a VPN component. At first glance, it looks like you can choose a server in any of about two dozen countries, but if you try, you'll find that country selection is a premium feature.
All you can do is let the VPN automatically connect to the server it thinks is best. The VPN's display page keeps you apprised of how much bandwidth you've used, which is important given that MB daily limit. For a little hands-on experience, I put on a YouTube video and just let it keep playing.
I also noted that the reported data usage changed in big jumps, not in a steady increase. If you get close to the limit on a given day, as I did in about a half-hour of viewing, be prepared for the VPN to cut your secure connection at any time. Panda doesn't offer the advanced configuration options found in Hotspot Shield itself. Hotspot Shield also includes a component that warns users away from dangerous websites, a Kill Switch to disconnect from the internet if the VPN connection fails, and a split-tunneling feature to let some apps bypass the VPN.
You'd think that a company giving away antivirus protection would reserve bonus security features for the paid edition. You'd be wrong, in many cases. For example, with Avast you get a network security inspector, a simple password manager, a secure browser, a shopping price-checker, and more.
AVG AntiVirus Free blocks online trackers, marks up dangerous links in search results, and shreds your sensitive files to prevent forensic recovery. Like Panda, Avira offers limited VPN protection, along with a secure browser and a tool to check for missing security patches.
Panda's less plentiful bonus features show up in the second row of icons in the main window. The other side is more proactive, guarding against malware that tries to infect your computer using USB autoplay.
Panda calls what it does vaccination. This feature preemptively takes over the resources that USB malware would need for autoplay and locks them down. It's helpful, and it's harmless.
I recommend enabling the setting that automatically vaccinates every USB drive.
