2GB Flash Drive + Internet Security from CA

Flash drives and security are not unique, but CA has a nice bundle combining a pair of flash drives with security software.

CA released its CA Internet Security Suite 2007 and CA Desktop DNA Migrator 2007 software on a pair of two gigabyte (GB) credit card-sized flash drive memory cards. Once the CA software is installed the flash cards can be used to transport 2GB worth of digital "stuff". The 2GB flash drive is included with the purchase of the CA software.

Details on the software:

The pre-loaded CA Internet Security Suite 2007 can be installed on up to three personal computers from the flash drive. The suite features:

A simple look-and-feel that helps users quickly and easily set preferences, check program status, and maintain a secure PC

Integrated anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, and personal firewall

Low system overhead, with a total install of only 70 MB and low usage of system resources

Threat Outbreak Warning System that provides real-time threat alerts from the CA Security Advisor

Support by the CA Security Advisory Team with worldwide research labs working 24 x 7 to detect threats before they affect users' PCs.

The pre-loaded CA Desktop DNA Migrator 2007 also comes with an Ethernet cable. The product offers:

A quick and easy way to transfer and safeguard a PC's "DNA" - pictures, music, address books, email, favorites, Internet Connection settings, and more - from one PC to another.

Unmatched migration speed

Flexible Migration Methods that quickly stream a PC's DNA directly from an old PC to a new PC using the Ethernet crossover cable or create a DNA file to transfer via DVD, flash drive or any removable media to a new PC or for use as backup.

Easy Backup - Incremental backups of a PC's DNA file can be scheduled to run on a recurring basis and saved to a CD, DVD, flash drive or any removable media to protect PC settings and data from unforeseen incidents.

Once connected to a Windows Vista system, the Windows Vista ReadyBoost feature will allow users to improve PC performance without having to crack open their computers. Benefits of ReadyBoost include:

Faster boot-up

Faster loading and running of applications, especially often-used programs such as Microsoft Outlook

Improved program responsiveness when switching between multiple applications

You can get this bundle from your local retail store or CA's web site The suggested retail price is $69.99 for the CA Internet Security Suite Flash Drive and $79.99 for the CA Secure & Store Flash Drive.
