[Public Beta] Returnil Virtual System 2009

Hello all,
Returnil is proud to announce the availability of the RVS 2009 Beta for public testing:

Version: Returnil Virtual System 2009 Beta
License: Premium Beta (30 days per released build)
Build: 3.0.4602.4833

Returnil Virtual System 2009 Beta uses a combination of antivirus and virtualization technologies to protect your system against both malicious software and unwanted changes. Returnil virtualization technology clones your computer’s System Partition and boots the PC into a controlled virtual world rather than native Windows; allowing you to run your applications in a completely isolated and secure environment. All activity is then performed within the virtual environment, ensuring that the operating system itself cannot be compromised by viruses, other malicious software, bad installations, system crashes, or user error. A simple restart is all that is required to return the PC to its original state.

The addition of malware detection in the virtual environment, the all new Returnil Virus Guard, works to ensure that your computing experience is free from known malicious content while working hand-in-hand with our virtual system technology to provide the most effective and seamless malicious content removal available. How often have you been faced with the aftermath of an improper removal or false positive detection? By using Returnil’s native restart-to-restore functionality, removal of malware becomes both trivial and completely safe, while ensuring that false positive detections do not result in unintended disaster! Whether you are working with files located on your computer or files located in the cloud, Returnil Virtual System 2009 Beta will keep both your computer and data secure.

New in RVS 2009 Beta:

• Additional program level protection
• Compatible with most top and secondary level Antivirus solutions
• Dynamic, as needed caching
• Returnil Tools functionality now integrated into the program interface
• Access and browser for real disk and registry
• Quick overview of all settings
• Compatible with Windows XP, Vista (32-bit), and Server 2003/2008
• Windows 7 and 64-bit coming soon! (Stay tuned)
• Desktop Toolbar with right-click menu
• Program hot-key and skins
• Localized installer: English, Chinese-Simplified, German, Japanese and Polish (note: the GUI is still only in English, new languages coming soon)
• All new intuitive and simple User Interface
• Easier to use program registration and licensing
• User's Help Manual

Testers with consistent feedback and participation will be rewarded with free 12 month licensing for the full consumer version when 2009 is released as a final. Those in the private sign up list should check their Beta announcement letters for their information as our thank you for being an early tester.

We thank all those in the private testing group for their feedback and helping us reach this major milestone in the development of the Returnil Virtual System. We further thank all the new public testers in advance for their feedback and suggestions as we go forward.

With kind regards
Everyone here at Returnil
