From the description, it looks like Acronis IS 2010 is a retool of BitDefender.
First Security Suites started adding Backup tools, now the later is adding a Internet Security Suite ;D

[icr]

Well here comes another suite with BD as engine:dry:

EDIT: I think you guys took it wrong just by the emoticon. I am not having any problems with BD.

[tipo]

If they are using BD's Engine then its Okie and it will really boost their detection rate...as far as Database is concerned they have to be on their toes. Lets C how they will perform in the WILD...

IMO Acronis should just focus on its core business.
I don't know the very latest version, but not so long ago the Acronis imaging software was bloated.

Noone is waiting for another Bitdefender clone.

Might be because of their good detection rate, they have performed really well in AV-C test. And also they might be giving it cheaply who knows:P

As far as I remember Acronis had antimalware product few years ago.

[Threedog]

Probably was able to give Acronis a good marketing agreement. It would be tied to money, not detection rates.

Funny thread. It's a good start of the year :P
