360 Total Security Essential

The option to uninstall is under general or active protection settings at the end.
What all to disable HIPS part?

 

I am planning to install 360 TSE on few friends & relatives system.
I like its bloat free & thats now rare to find in a free AV.

Some queries
Is it fully cloud or stores small databases for offline protection?
Hows the protection?
Should I enable Avira & Bd?
Is it fps prone?
What does online shopping protection do i.e some type of heur scan, etc...?

I would like to keep the HIPS part disabled as I find not suitable for average users.
What all should I remove from custom protection to disable HIPS part?

Can Avira/Bd be removed from GUI?
In settings, it mention something like uninstall unneeded engines.

 

@yesnoo There's an existing threat about 360 TS Essentials here.

 

The windows explorer.exe.back must be added to the whitelist too to resolve this issue.

 

@yesnoo

If you wanted to change your username then you could have sent a request to get your old "narenbisht" account renamed to yesnoo instead of starting a new one, unless you wanted to start fresh of course.

 

I didn't know that my current name can be changed.
Is it possible now i.e delete this account & change my earlier account to yesnoo?

Actually in other forums like malwaretips, eset forum, etc.... its yesnoo. So I wanted to see if I can get this name for wilders & comodo & I got it so I immediately changed it thinking if my bad luck may be this will not available again.

Now I will ask this in comodo forum too.

Thanxx for the info & hope in some way earlier account could be changed to yesnoo.

 

I have installed 360 TSE on win 7 64.
What do you mean by submenus?

 

Thanxx a lot.
Its changed now.

 

I thought this was worth noting. Today I ran RKill on (2) PCs prior doing a virus scan. TSE is currently on one of those systems. After RKill was done and reported its results I attempted to open the GUI of TSE to run the virus scan. TSE reported that it could not comply because its file(s) had been damaged, and I would need to re-install the program. It appears to me that when RKill "Reset .EXE, COM, & .BAT associations in the Windows Registry" it became an issue for TSE.

 

Take a look on the picture attached on my original post.

 

I installed it on a 32bit Windows 7 computer and did not have the problem with the sub-menus.

 

Well,i had it.Clean windows image,no other security software installed.

 

it seems 360 TS and TSE sandbox still has issues with internet explorer 11. not compatible, since i tried to run it sandbox and IE never opened. Firefox works fine. I have seen this for awhile now and I do not know why qihoo does not fix this issue?

this is on a windows 8.1 64bit, using 32bit IE and 64IE, both have the issue

 

Go to their home page here. At the bottom of the page you can ask a question. I usually get a response in a couple of days.

 

Now I seriously can't decide between avast! and this one...

 

360 TSE no nagging screens or stupid pop-ups for paid version, much more lite, 5 engines (with avira & bitdefender included) i would know.

 

360 TSE Sandbox is it compatible with all software and 64 bit programs ?
I noticed some programs doesn't install, and some opens normally... I don't see the green menu on the top saying running in sandbox mode.

Will a 64 bit version be release for 360 TSE ?

Thanks.

 

However, the HEUR detections are still ridiculous. Where avast! hardly ever gave me any, I have like 20 files manually restored and added to the trust list. All HEUR detections. That's crazy.

 

I too read in other forums like malwaretips, its fps rate is little on high side.

I installed it, liked it & uninstalled it.
FPs are little on high side.
No help files to know about the features in little detail.
English forum would be nice.
The product has potential

If Avira/Bd is not enabled then no offline protection, right?

I emailed qihoo twice with couple queries & they gave just general reply with no info.
I emailed them again requesting little detailed info & not just general reply but again they gave general reply like our product protects from this/that, webshield is there & a direct link to download was given, if you like our product, plzz post on download.com, etc...

 

I was forced to return to avast!. Constantly manually adding files to a trust list kinda defeats the purpose of a system above the user to dealw ith malware or potential malware...

 

Is this compatible with sandboxie?

 

You may need to get those files scanned by using VirusTotal in case if those files are really infected.

 

That's pretty much the same reason why I switched away from 360 too. It was going to be too much work with all the PCs in the house.

 

I know they aren't infected because they've been on my system for ages and they've been scanend by many AV's I've used over time (avast!, AVG, AVIRA, BitDefender, Kaspersky etc) and none has alerted on them. Also, majority of files were from Steam and GOG games.
