Anyone try Blink® Personal Edition?

Can anyone who's used this software compare its effectiveness and performance as an all-in-one suite to KIS 6?

 

I have actullay had Comodo Pro Firewall, Prevx2, and AVS install exe's on my Desktop for two days now ready to replace Blink Personal Edition, but I can't bring myself to do it because I really like this program. So far the only negative (after 4 days of having it installed) is it increases my reboot time, but other than that my PC runs well with it installed. Also will add that the eEye Blink Support Forum was quick to resond to a question I had and provides some good info on Blink Personal Edition and the new version (still in beta) due out sometime around June 18th. http://forums.eeye.com/forums/
Of course if the itch for something new hits me any harder I could soon have the set up I mentioned earlier. LOL.

 

I just discovered CF and absolutly agree with you it is a really nice 'toy', but I too wish it be updated and polished to use fewer system resources

Sorry 4 the off-topic!!!

 

May be this link add some more info to this topic:

Hi, folks: Oh, Oh, you must be a late comer. There are tons and tons of paper trails regarding to this tone guy. He got not just more than handful but also earful of forces trying to push him belly up. Just be a bit careful re what you are reading.

 

I agree with Perman's warning. Don't take his reviews with a pinch of salt, take them with a bucket load!!!

Been running this since July 12th.
Tonight I uninstalled it.
It froze the program trying to to a manual update.
Other problems I've encountered were,
the GUI shutting down for no reason and taking the taskbar icon with it,
slow scans, then normal scans, to times I couldn't scan at all and of course I never had an auto update.
I reinstalled several times hoping it was just an install problem with no luck.
Then of course there is no tech support for the personal version. Only their forums.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Phone, email and web-based support is NOT PROVIDED for Blink Personal Edition. Should you need help with Blink Personal Edition, please browse our online message board:

The concept is good and I will try it again once the bugs are all fixed.
But for now:

 

The auto update not working was the show stopper for me.

 

Yeah, I ran into this one too and that was enough for me to dump it. Scans were slow here as well... Didn't even keep it long enough to check auto updating..
