SecureSpot DI-103: Internet security device

If you're looking for a way to protect your PC from viruses that doesn't involve using resource-hogging security software, D-Link has a simple solution. At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the networking vendor launched its SecureSpot DI-103 Internet security device, which it says protects PCs from viruses, spam, and spyware.
The 1-inch-thick appliance occupies about 16 square inches of desk space and is essentially a custom version of the company's DI-102 VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) accelerator, according to Michael Scott, technical media manager with D-Link.
LAN users can install the device between their broadband modem and their router; in addition, they can take it on the road and use it with a laptop, D-Link said. The DI-103 works with Windows and Mac OS X clients, and D-Link expects to support Linux PCs within the next few months.
Users must install the antivirus and antispyware software on their PCs; the DI-103 itself does pop-up blocking and spam filtering. Users can configure the security device as a firewall and use it to control which Web sites computers on the network can view.
