CyberScrub AntiVirus continually checks for viruses in all opened saved and executed files, including archived and compressed files. The software provides the option for on demand scans of file contents, including files stored within MS Outlook Express.

The "Ax the Tax" campaign is a direct response to consumer dismay with costly annual subscription fees. Reacting to this outcry CyberScrub was determined to present an alternative. CyberScrub CEO Bill Adler stated: "Expensive updates have prevented millions of users from seeking viral protection. We don't think it's fair to make users pay year after year."

"Antivirus solutions should be a simple, `pay-for-once' process that is no different than any other software purchase. To hold customers hostage with a yearly update tax is ludicrous. We applaud CyberScrub for taking the step of `axing the tax' by introducing an antivirus solution that has tremendous value, offers superb virus protection and only requires a one-time purchase for the life of your computer," said Larry McJunkin, VP Operations, the Windows Users Group Network (WUGNET (Windows Users Group Network, Media, PA, www.wugnet.com) An organization that provides a variety of products and services to the user community, including shareware, a syndicated message platform for technical forums, contract software development and e-marketing consulting. ).
