    A new, free antivirus created by serj (i.e. Serj960HD) and he seems to be working hard to improve it. :) I respect his skill, since he is only a year older than me. Maybe I could learn some new tricks. *puppy*

    @ WinDefend

    How much do you know about Serj960HD ?

    *

    The www looks Pro & from what i could see, so does the GUI :)

    Couldn't try it as it needs NET :p

    v0.0.0.0 = ONLY 912 KB :eek:

    Looks OK on some Rogues :thumb:

    rog.gif

    Already the idiots are at it, trying to get you to install a serial key, when it doesn't need one :D I won't post the www ;)

    Who is Serj960HD ? -http://wn.com/Serj960HD seems busy anyway :D

    Be interesting to see what you make of it !

    So it's an anti-malware software? Something's wrong with the WOT rating.

    WOT is blocking the site, and the product's website is also being filtered by one of the lists I used in peerblock. The product's homepage is hxxp://covirosoft.net right?

    I've checked installer...VT show that is clear. I noticed during testing (system in Shadow Mode) that it uses a lot of RAM...about 37 MB, the program also showed the errors associated with the Framework.

    IE9 also labeled ZenOK on its blacklist at first, and also warned me about downloading Zillya some while ago. Covirosoft = rogue? ARTAV = not rogue? Wtf? How does that not make any sense? When was rogue-looking AVs not rogues? :ninja:

    Live.com? Geez, idk. Maybe they lack money? :doubt: Like someone had said ZenOK's site was using a joker.com domain.

    Xylitol: "There is betters security programs than this one, it look only for md5 hashs of virus really bad I disadvise to install this."

    ^She is right. It also means it is not malware. ;) Are we done now?

    And when were AVs perfect? How is ANY software perfect? I assume everybody would agree that software do get errors every now and then. Imperfect software made imperfect humans. :gack:

    Hey everyone,

    Now I am not supporting or going against this product, I honestly have never tried it but I do have a question for y'all. What makes using a live.com domain malware? Most likely they are a lot of people who just made small programs like this out there that just look for MD5 and other simple ways. They may not be great but some people do it as a hobby. I will be honest one day I had nothing to do so I wrote a small scanner tool just for me for fun.

    Second it is hosted on Softpedia, I am pretty sure Softpedia does do malware checks. So maybe someone wants to send an email to them and get their opinion.

    and it has errors in it why?? a real AV would not hav this

    I have never seen a program that does not have errors.

    Yes Blue Atom was made by one 14 year old boy who is now like 15 or 16. Every idea starts out somewhere.

    a real company would never use that

    No one said this was a real company, seems more like a personal project. Not everyone can pay for a biz email.

    u can go to WOT and u will see its blacklisted, WOT has also "Comment votes have been disabled for this site" cuz of Score Card ratings manipulation seems like people like u or some1 wants to rate this site good i wonder why some1 or something wants to green light it?? lol"

    Because they can't see a reason for it to be rated bad? Web of Trust is user opinion.

    real basic errors really?? lol

    Some of my programs have had real basic errors when I first started :p we learn from our mistakes

    also this Thread also needs to be deleted

    That is up to the mods, however I see no reason that it should be. We are discussing a product. Unless its confirmed bad I see no reason this thread should be hid.

    I don t know the person that makes this software and i did not tested it ,but looking at the youtube videoes i see only some guy trying to make some kind of antivirus software.
    He may be a nut ,but fail to see the negative intentions here.

    It may be a useless piece of software ,but i personally don t see the MAL in it.
    The interface is quite nice compared to some other antiviruses made by serious COMPANIES.

    Looks like a software created by a nut boy nothing more.If it s useless ignore it.

    He also gives data to be identified.He must be a moron malware creator :)
    He uses free offers to make his dream come true from what i see. :)

    Maybe someday he will start a company :)

    seems like u r really fighting for this AV u must be friends with the guy so your posts r biased seems like u said that in the 1st post

    No I have no idea who the person who made it is. I have never used the product. I am just responding to your questions. I am for individual creations and supporting somebody when they first start out. I am also against unfair accusations

    As Sm3K3R said " (I) fail to see the negative intentions here."

    The most biased things I've seen on this thread are WOT and WE KILL MALWARE. They both blacklist this with no good reason.
