DETAILS

First, please read knowledge base article q000099. This article explains the many ways that hackers can attack you. As described in that article, our products protect you against remote attacks, which are attacks that somebody unknown to you launches against your computer while you are connected to the net. Conversely, GuardDog protects you against hostile-content from websites that you visit. (You don't have to visit a site or actually do anything to be the victim of a remote attack).

Does one replace the other?

No. GuardDog cannot scan network traffic, and our product cannot scan website content well.

Do they work together?

They should work fine together on the same computer with no problems. Our product will watch the network traffic, GuardDog will watch the website content.
