Trend Micro Titanium™ Internet Security 2012 and Maximum Internet Security 2012
Trend Micro™ Titanium™ Internet Security uses cloud technology to automatically stop viruses and spyware before they reach your computer, so it won’t slow you down. It’s a whole new way to protect your PC.
Trend Micro's 2012 versions of Internet Security and Security Pro provide comprehensive protection from all virus and spyware threats, including web based hostile codes and browser exploit kits. These products have a small "footprint" on your computer, placing most of the load "in-the-cloud" † where the latest malware definitions and infected website lists reside on secure servers. This in-the-cloud threat protection is known as the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network. The Smart Protection Network monitors the Internet 24/7, worldwide. It gathers and analyzes threat data, blocking viruses and other malware BEFORE they can reach your PC. And because processing is done in the cloud, Titanium uses less of your PC’s memory and disk space, so it won’t slow you down.
Malware authors are constantly creating new or altered versions of their Trojans, Bots, viruses and data stealers. It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of new or altered malcode footprints are released every day. There is no way a traditional anti virus program can keep up with this onslaught of hostile coding. However, thanks to Trend Micro's use of Cloud Computing technologies, malware and web threat definitions are constantly updated with input from Trend Micro customers around the World and from Trend's own Honeypots. Once a threat has been detected and analyzed, definitions to detect and block it are published to the "secure cloud," so all users of Trend Micro Internet Security products are automatically and instantly protected.
I have tested their "web protection add-on" and found that it responds instantly to block any dangerous web pages from being downloaded to my browsers. It also protects against and regularly scans for any evidence of Bots, which are used to hijack PCs for use in spam Botnets.

† About "in-the-cloud" security and the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network
Trend Micro Smart Protection Network, which uses a number of patent-pending technologies, combines Internet-based (or “in-the-cloud”) technologies with lighter-weight, client-based methods to ensure customers have immediate access to the latest and strongest protection wherever and however they connect – from home, within the company’s network, or on the go.
At the heart of the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network is the move beyond the conventional approaches of blocking threats and towards a global network of threat intelligence that uses Trend Micro’s cloud-based technology to block Web threats before they reach a network or computer.
By storing the majority of pattern files in an Internet cloud database and keeping them at a minimum on the endpoint, Trend Micro helps stop Web, file and email threats before they reach the end-user or the corporate network. This new approach lightens bandwidth consumption on customers’ networks and endpoints and provides faster and more comprehensive up-to-date protection.
