Guard-IE

Ad Blocker/Popup Killer

Makes using the Web pleasant again!
Guard-IE blocks 100% popups and popunders; there are NO EXCEPTIONS. Using the Web without all those annoying popups and script-driven ads increases your productivity and eases your stress level!

Guard-IE blocks script-based drop-down ads, Macromedia Flash Ads, and many others and, most important, is continually being upgraded to address more and more of these annoying advertising tricks - if we don't block it now, we probably will very soon!

Security Protection from Web-based viruses/worms.

Even the best anti-virus software is only as good as the program's own database of known viruses. And firewalls work at too low a level to effectively intercept many high-level Web threats.

Guard-IE is designed to complement your firewall and antivirus software by intercepting potentially hostile script-based attacks (such as Active-X or Javascript) that can infect your computer simply by Web browsing! If your firewall and antivirus software are the moat about your castle, Guard-IE acts as last-line-of-defense of sentries stationed at the castle doors and windows.

History Trace Remover

To erase ALL your Web browsing tracks.
Guard-IE provides a COMPLETE set of web usage history removal. But not only does Guard-IE remove the usual set of cookies and temp files, Guard-IE also removes all previous form entries, typed URLs, passwords, etc. Rest easy knowing that your passwords, credit card numbers, and other personal information cannot be as easily found without this protection.

And unlike most "privacy tools" Guard-IE also removes and/or prevents the new class of tools being used to secretly store data on your computer

Ease of Use Integrates Directly into Internet Explorer.

Guard-IE is unique in that is integrates directly into Internet Explorer. No separate taskbar program that is part of a program that competes with and clashes against other programs.
