There are not many scanning packages that are capable of handling root kits as well which are particularly troubling as they can prevent a PC booting up at all once the power goes on. The software doesn't run in the cloud per se, but is actually downloaded and installed to the Windows system where it performs its scan. Panda Cloud Cleaner uses cloud detection information from other users of the same package to inform about new infections to master boot records, malicious malware, and root kit nasties. Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro is a lightweight, simple to use antivirus tool that keeps your system safe without nagging you with messages and updates." Effective tool to remove active malware" Though Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro can’t be scheduled to run automatic scans and doesn’t include filters for web or email, it’s still a solid antivirus for netbooks and low-spec computers.

Another nice feature in Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro is the USB vaccine tool, which protects your computer from potentially dangerous files on portable USB memory devices. The program includes a behavioral analysis and blocking system that detects suspicious actions typically carried out by malware. Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro features two types of analysis: Optimized scan – which presumably analyzes the most important areas in the system, though you can’t know for sure – and Other scans, where you can select specific folders and files to be analyzed. The cloud-based functionality doesn't mean you remain unprotected when disconnected from the network: Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro features a local cache that keeps the program up and running, working at 100%. You can forget about complicated configurations and having to download new signature files!

Thanks to this special cloud structure, Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro doesn't have to be manually updated.


Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro is based on cloud computing, which means it’s only partially installed on your system and keeps core files on a dedicated server on the internet. Like its free counterpart, Panda Cloud Antivirus Pro offers complete system protection without necessarily taking up half of your resources or showing nagging windows all the time.
