Download Panda Cloud Antivirus 2.1.1

Panda Security has released an update to version 2.1.0 of its antivirus program Panda Cloud Antivirus. This program can detect viruses, recognize malware and of course remove both. The addition ‘cloud’ in the name mainly has to do with recognizing and reporting newly detected viruses and malware on the basis of the so-called Collective Intelligence servers from panda. New in version 2.1.0 is, among other things, an anti-exploit technology that should be able to neutralize so-called zero-day vulnerabilities. This update, which contains some bug fixes, now also carries the official “Windows 8 Compatible” logo.
