On Thursday, Trend Micro released its Internet Security 2009 and Internet Security Pro 2009 products for consumers, touting enhanced performance, features and better end-user education.

New features within Internet Security 2009 include a security activity dashboard, designed to show users where threats are coming from (websites versus email) and which threats have affected them most (web versus traditional viruses).

The suite also includes utilities to clean up disk space, registry files, start-up programs and browser cache.

Like McAfee, Trend Micro also provides consumer access to its new 'in the cloud' malware-signature database. Trend Micro said it can mitigate an unknown malware sample within 15 minutes, as opposed to the older method of pushing out database updates every hour or so.

Internet Security Pro 2009 includes all the basic features within the internet security suite, as well as more wireless-networking protection for mobile and laptop users.

Trend Micro continues to provide free phone, email, and online-chat support. This year, Symantec is also offering free tech support with its Norton products.
