If you're in the market looking for a powerful anti-virus solution, then you need to know that Panda Cloud Antivirus today reached version 3.0, so it's now available to everyone running Windows.

The parent company claims the beta version registered a total of 30,000 downloads from 130 different countries, so it's pretty clear that the stable build is likely to be downloaded by at least as many people from all over the world.

Of course, it comes with quite a lot of improvements implemented in both the free and the pro editions, including a new modern and flat look that brings it in line with the design first introduced by Windows 8 in October 2012. Panda says that this new appearance makes the program easier to use and a bit more intuitive, which seems very likely given the fact that all options are now clearly displayed right in the main screen.

The app now supports scheduled scans in order to look for malware at a user-defined time, while also bringing a new Wi-Fi Monitor that's only available in the Pro edition and protects your wireless connection.

“Find out if someone is stealing your Wi-Fi. The new Panda Cloud Antivirus 3.0 incorporates a Wi-Fi monitor that shows a list of all the devices currently connected to your network, helping you find out if there is an intruder on your Wi-Fi network,” Panda Software explained.

At the same time, Panda Cloud Antivirus 3.0 comes with support for Panda account, which allows you to download your products and manage services with ease, all from a single interface.

“An exclusive area where you’ll be able to download your products, manage your services, obtain documentation, get technical support through the new Technical Support Forum and, only for Pro users, receive personal VIP support via an online form. Additionally, you will be able to manage all of your Panda Consumer products from this area, as well as your Android devices if they are protected with Panda Mobile Security,” the developing team said.

Version 3.0 also brings better protection capabilities, more information in the process monitor and plenty of bug fixes that are supposed to make it run smoother on every Windows computer out there.

As you know, updates are automatically downloaded and installed on your PC using the built-in engine, but you can always download Panda Cloud Antivirus 3.0 manually if you'd like to give it a try right now.
