Online Armor, a powerful yet user friendly security solution offered by Austrian based company Emsisoft, allows you to control which applications can connect to the web and which cannot, switch between a Standard, Advanced and Banking Mode, protect your machine from keyloggers, and manage the applications that are set to automatically launch at startup. Overall, Emsisoft Online Armor delivers powerful functionality that advanced users are sure to enjoy, but delivers it in such a manner that even novices will have no problems using this security solution.

Online Armor can be installed on anything from Windows XP up to Windows 8. Download a 28.8MB executable, run it, and you will be presented with a setup wizard that will guide you through the installation process. Before the installation completes you will be asked to choose between activating a 30-day trial or getting a Premium edition. You will also be invited to restart your machine – once your PC boots up, Emsisoft Online Armor will go through the learning mode, which will finish in little time.

You can choose between three modes for the application’s interface: Standard Mode, which is suitable for most users, Advanced Mode, which is recommended for expert users, and Banking Mode, which is recommended for performing online banking tasks. No matter which mode you choose, using the interface remains a very simple matter. Just click through the buttons located on the left hand side to explore all the features and functions offered by Emsisoft Online Armor.
