    works in IE7

    registration > send you a username and password

    then files works on the files area on the beta page

    no problems here

    although it only downloads at 13.4kb on my machine, not good when you have 10mb.

    i tried the beta dr web ...

    it runs ok, no problems etc.

    scan speed is a little slower than f-secure IS 2007, 5 mins extra, it didnt find anything new so as expected after running f-secure, but nice, neat little software.

    this software doesnt have many options, i think the only thing i had to change was the "enable heuristics", but sure... works well.

    the design is a little basic, bit like windows 98, but if this doesnt bother you... i see no problem in using this antivirus. :)

    1 process when you dont have the program open on screen, uses 22mb ram, which i think is a little much for just an antivirus program, but its still nothing to write home about.

    That's lightning fast compared to my dial-up connection where 4 KB/sec is top speed :D :oops:

    I have noticed before that Dr. Web's website can sometimes be extremely slow.

    Ahh good old dial-up,I remember those days, and boy it hurt!
