Under Tools->Delete Private Data you can choose exactly what you want to delete, e.g. history, cookies, wand passwords... :)
Thanks for all the advices! I know about the LUA-approach, especially since I am a long time user of Linux/Unix, where one newer uses the root...
Hi, After going 64-bits, mainly because of heavy RAM upgrades, I feel there is a sort of vacuum in the selection of security apps available....
Even though it doesn't use signatures like an AV, it still updates every now and then. Also there is a sort of "community" feature where Mamutu...
Ordinary downloading of infected .exe (or similar) will be scanned anyway because they will always end up in the filesystem before you get a...
They both have their advantages and disadvantages. E.g. TF is much more configurable (incl. custom rules), while Norton Antibot / Sana PRSC is...
I think almost all AVs scan when saving a file as well. Just try downloading EICAR Test-virus with your favourite AV, and I'm pretty sure it will...
What is the "proper" way to report FPs in CSI or EDGE? Several weeks ago after a scan I marked a file as FP and I thought Prevx would deal with...
The problem is you post some serious allegations both in this thread and in others, mainly targeted at Avira. But you are always very vague in...
You are often critizising the tests, but do you have any suggestions how to make the tests better? And why is it so bad for Dr-Web to test...
It's even worse, NIS 2009 installs a toolbar in Firefox as well, without asking. (Although this can also be disabled) The reason I find these...
Problem is most tests only use the on-demand scanner, because it's more practical with large malware collections. With some AVs this is not a...
Norton's realtime (on-access) scanner doesn't scan inside archives (zip/rar...). But as soon as you extract the files, malware will be detected...
LUA is sort of "enabled" by default in Vista. Because in XP people were running with full admin rights all the time (by default), and therefore...
I tried Prevx Edge in trial-mode on one of my computers. In addition to the already mentioned problems with false positives, there is another...
Download Eicar test virus to see if the on-access scanner works: http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm It's not a real virus, so...
Thanks for the reply :) I tested BD2009 (AV only) on 32-bit Vista Business. It is a HP Compaq laptop, but no other security software was...
Their detection rate seems good, but the main program and GUI needs some serious work. I got a free license for BD2009 and installed on a fresh...
Are you using only AV or the full premium suite with firewall etc.? Because I've installed the latest version of both AntiVir Free and AntiVir...
Avira is just about the only AV that makes my old Pentium 3 boot and perform quickly :) Also disinfection has been improved, and if you use...
I've tried Norton AV 2009, and I know it's light ;) But I'm still not sure it's lighter than other light AVs. And it still costs money, and to...
It still costs money. So when you're on a tight budget you should seriously consider the three A's: AVG, Avast and Avira :) Very few AVs...
What kind of mail does she use? Mail-scanners are only useful for POP/IMAP, so if she uses webmail (Gmail, hotmail, yahoo...) they are of...
I think Matousec should broaden the scope of their tests, as too many good programs are left out in the cold. In the next test I wanna see how...
Instead, you should rather keep on eye on the red update-indicator in the systray. Whenever there are security updates available for Ubuntu, you...
