Latest version (0.60 build 77) released on February 16, 2009.
We welcome you to participate in the F-Secure Exploit Shield Technology Preview program.
F-Secure Exploit Shield is an application that protects users from web-based malicious exploits and stops malware at the first point of infection. All malicious, exploit-hosting URLs it detects are automatically reported back to F-Secure's Real-time Protection Network, which helps our Security Labs discover new exploits on the Internet and react to protect all our existing customers.

- Zero Day Protection: Protects unpatched machines even before patches are available from the software vendor.
- Patch-equivalent Protection: One 'shield' update per vulnerability stops all exploits targeting it.
- Proactive Measures: Heuristic detection techniques block exploits even for unknown vulnerabilities.
- Protects against both malicious websites and good websites that have been hacked.
