SkyShield Antivirus, as the name points out, is an antivirus product. The application’s PC Shield keeps your PC safe and protected against all types of viruses. The nice thing is that SkyShield Antivirus has several shields to offer. Besides the aforementioned PC Shield there’s a Download, USB, Toolbar, and an Email Shield. Together, all these shields ensure you stay safe and protected.

SkyShield Antivirus plays nice with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8. The installation process is detailed in the Quick Look video that is attached to this review. The video shows just how easy it is to install SkyShield Antivirus on a Windows PC. The video shows just how little time is needed to get SkyShield Antivirus up and running on a Windows PC.

All the shields this antivirus application has to offer are clearly presented on the interface:
PC Shield – protects against all types of viruses.
Download Shield – protects against malicious downloads; ensures you don’t download something dangerous.
USB Shield – protects against threats that spread via USB portable devices.
Toolbar Shield – ensures your browser’s settings are not changed by malware.
Email Shield – protects against spam, unwanted email messages, and malicious attachments.

Next to each shield there’s an On/Off slider. Use these sliders to enable/disable the shields you want. To the right there’s a Full Shield slider that allows you to disable/enable all the shields at once.

There’s a blue orb right in the middle on the application’s interface. Said orb is divided into two sections; the one to the left allows you to scan your entire PC while the one to the right allows you to scan chosen files.

SkyShield Antivirus is free software.

SkyShield Antivirus puts your PC behind a shield that protects against viruses, spam, malicious downloads, and more.

Pros

Little time and little effort will go into installing SkyShield Antivirus on a Windows-powered PC (XP, Vista, 7, and 8 are supported). The interface is very simple. Use sliders to disable/enable individual shields; use a single slider to disable/enable all shields. SkyShield Antivirus protects against viruses, malicious downloads, infected USB sticks, spam, and more. Scan the entire PC; select a folder or some files and scan them. SkyShield Antivirus is free software.

Cons

There are no settings to play with. You can enable/disable shields and you can scan the whole PC or chosen files. But you cannot play with the settings and customize the way SkyShield Antivirus works.
