As one of the most anticipated pieces of software in years, Microsoft Windows Vista has quickly become one of the biggest targets for hackers and cyber criminals. Since the vast majority of viruses and malware derive from email, consumers and SMBs are strongly encouraged to protect their systems with state-of-the-art anti-malware protection, such as BitDefender 10 Internet Security.

"While Windows Vista claims to contain many security upgrades, consumers must be aware that hackers are still trying to undermine the system in order to infect their computers," said Carmen Maierean, BitDefender Product Manager. "BitDefender continuously works to provide consumers with the most up-to-date security solutions. The new Windows Vista protection proves this dedication in keeping computer systems malware-free."
