Immunet's free cloud antivirus for Windows steadily gaining users

You may not have heard much about it (if at all), but Immunet Protect's free antivirus for Windows continues to steadily attract new users. On Novermber 19th, their install base was around 20,000 users. Today, that number has reached more than 31,000 and it keeps on growing.

Founded by former Symantec research exec Oliver Friedrichs, Immunet has been available as a beta download since August of this year. Like Panda's more well-known cloud defense app, Immunet boasts a small resource footprint and no massive definition downloads while utilizing community-powered detection and analysis.

Microsoft Security essentials was getting a little out of hand with memory usage and CPU spikes on my Atom-powered netbook, so I decided to give Immunet a try about a month ago. So far, so good. No viruses, and no more issues with performance.

Immunet Protect is a free download and runs on 32 and 64-bit Windows. Head over to their web site to take it for a spin!
