    i skipped this too just cause its chinese. but the developer is an ex-hacker with a phd in electrical engg (says so on goatd) from america. so at least the developer is good.

    Ignorance is bliss I suppose. What does being Chinese have anything to do with anything?

    It's FUD and discrimination, that's what. It's a pathetic attitude to have. Yes, China is ran by a freedom-smothering government, and, yes, MANY cyber attacks, malware and botnets have originated from there. However, can you truly be sad enough to dismiss software and developers simply because of the country? You know, there's even good people in Iran...shocking, isn't it?

    I tried it on my host system win 7(with compatibility and run as admin) and it could not detect my network interfaces,then installed it in my vm, xp pro and it works like a charm.

    What exactly does it do that a firewall+AV cant do such as the VIPRE AV Premium that I have now? I mean can it seriously be used to supplement for IDS or is it really a waste of time. It seems like a decent software firewall or router firewall would be able to negate the advantages of the software. It also has some packet inspection properties which Wireshark can probably do and some.

    Anything can get flagged if the AV disagrees with the way the file is packed or encrypted by the program.
