Other features include:
* Keeps your PC from getting infested by "drive-by" downloads.
* Blocks theft of your private identity information.
* Prevents thieves from stealing your confidential files.
* Protects your applications from hijacking.
The Windows software is still available as a trial version at Download.com, but the full version used to cost $29.95 / year. Hopefully, Google will release a free version.
