360 Total Security - English

You can:
1: manually update, no problem
2: wait for several hours/days to prompt you to update

Auto update DOES happen, although it is very delayed from official webpage.

 

Can anyone confirm that this latest (5.0.0.2001) is using less resources ? became more light ?!
I see it uses about 55 MEG with only avira engine, 2 weeks ago that was about 90 MEG with avira engine

Regards

 

Is this build supposed to use less resources?

 

for me the manual upgrade to 5.0.0.2001 was a bit of a mixed experience

win 8.1 with a virtualbox vm (linux host) went just fine

win7, standalone partition (not a virtual machine) wasnt that good. i did the same as in the win8.1 vm but after the upgrade it constantly complained that 360TsLiveUpd.exe was misssing, i checked the dir and the file really was gone - so i was unable to update the definitions and the action centre flag thing in the tray said i was unprotected. in the end i uninstalled and forcefully removed the 360 dir (i had to do this in linux, it was impossible in windows) - and did a more or less clean install. then everything was working..

 

Thank you for explanation but maybe was better put that simply in the program settings list because outside like now seems a tool for the user and not for the antivirus only.

 

Most probably because it is a separate module/process and not via main program.
This is a speculation on my part, until Jay confirms or denies it.

 

In addition I suggest to Jay a different name for that module, "Updates Manager" is much more clear for the user.
An other thing, on Start speedup options 360 TS suggest to disable the Windows System Restore Task but in my opinion this is a dangerous choice because this is a very useful in many case for restore a previous state due to virus or problematic software installations.

 

Some might confuse it with Windows "Update" manager. But noted, I shall forward this to Qihoo guys.

As for the other one, good find, will also report to them....

A special surprise is coming for you guys from me and Qihoo staff once the pics upload, that is, I shall post them here

Thanks to you too, your commitment here is very precious for us and for the Qihoo 360 developers.

 

Thanks for the very nice words!!!!
Truth be told, I am super glad I managed to bring Qihoo over here, so that they see we care about this a great deal.
Slowly, but surely, we will take step-by-step to make it the most popular thing on this planet.
Why? Because why not? I mean, even The Transformers guys use it!!!

And thansformers are cool. I'd like to order one, please!

 

Ah ah great video!
You are welcome.

 

Oddly, since moving to a different AV, my bit-torrent issues have gone away. 360TS seems to give me issues with BT for whatever reason.

 

The trouble with Qihoo 360 Total Security is: its dashboard has no password protection. On a multiple-user desktop, every user might disable it with a mouse click, so the protection is gone. And that's completely beyond the pale.

 

I shall forward this to Qihoo.
Many thanks for this fine contribution/suggestion.

 

I noticed a difference between scanning a single file using the right click context menu. In an admin account the program will open in custom scan and the scan will proceed. In a LUA, doing a right click scan, the program will open in custom scan but proceed no further. It just sits there. V 5.0.0.2001

 

Hi, thank you for your kind contribution, I will let Qihoo know.
Do you experience more problems in LUA with Q360 installed?

 

No, everthing seems to be okay. I did want to add that when right clicking a file in the admin account, no UAC window popped up but it did when using the LUA account. Doing a regular scan in a LUA does work.

 

Please be kind to advise your OS and 32/64bit architecture, thanks.

 

Windows 7 32bit. Was a clean install and then installed Total Security. Also, the LUA and the admin account do not have a password.

 

Thank you. That should be all the info I need.
I will let you know if I need more details.
Thanks, your contribution will help improve this product for all users.

 

Hi everyone on the forum!

Windows 7 64 bit here.
Internet Security 4.90 / 5.0 beta both work.
Total Security: real-time protection does not work at all! does not even start.
More precisely: QHActiveDefense.exe is not running. Trying to run it, it gives this error:
-----------------------
Parameters:
- install to install the service.
- remove to remove the service.
Service failed to run w/err 0x00000427
-----------------------

Any ideas/advice?

 

Uninstall and Re-install ? I have tested Total a few times, never had issue with it.
but for me its using way too much RAM besides all stuff i don't need.

 

Is their an option to exclude a site from being tagged as a phishing/malicious under Settings? Apparently you can only add a site for 360 TS to block.
