To celebrate two years of doing business, Immunet, a "next-generation security startup," has lifted the curtain both on a new website and a new release of its Immunet Protect software, now in version 2.0.
Available as a free download, Immunet Protect 2.0 is a cloud-based AV scanner. Like Panda's cloud-based AV software, Immunet offers real-time protection without ever requiring virus updates. And if you're particularly paranoid (or reckless), Immunet says its software will run just fine with several existing antivirus suites, including all the major ones like AVG, AntiVir, Norton, McAfee, Microsoft Security Essentials, Kaspersky, and a whole bunch more (see the full list here).
For those who need additional protection, there's also a Plus version for $20. The paid software adds things like protection against rootkits and spyware, scheduled scans, offline scans, mail database scanning, and a few other odds and ends.

We continue to improve product efficacy, and are close to approaching 500,000 users soon.
To celebrate our 2year anniversary as Immunet, we are also offering 50% OFF any purchase of Immunet Protect Plus (for those users needing advanced protection against root-kits, want email scanning, USB key support, and scheduled scans).

Are there going to be any Lab tests performed by MaximumPC to see how Immunet Protect fares against mainstream AV products with commentary on the Free version versus the Subscription version? I would love to see a review and comparison in an upcoming edition of MaximumPC.

I never realized that they had cloud-based computing anti-virus solutions already on the market. Then again cloud-based apps have been around for a bit.
It'll be interesting to see what other kind of cloud-based apps will develop.
