    well webfilter was quite snappy for me, no lag times on java heavy pages either, and overall system performance was still pretty good for me, i didnt check scan speed tho, but im on Windows 7 so maybe an XP issue or another issue with anything else ur running or used to have installed before.

    Imagine 1, 2 sometimes maybe 3 seconds (subjectively felt, not time stopped!) of nothing happening. After clicking a link. That's what we are talking about here. o_O

    Who knows ... well there clearly MUST be a reason that you all are full of praise and only (?) I am not. - But I am glad it's gone now and maybe 2011 I try it again. ;)

    its probly a conflict of some sort it sounds like. and ye id get rid of it to with that kind of web delay, but lucky for me ther wasnt any delay, but either way overall it still wasnt AS light as my current solution so i ditched it and my main concerns about it wer the abnormally huge update and the GIGANTIC installer size... the update took ages.

    AFAIK it's BitDefender and Avast even for the business products. Previously, it was BD+Avast for consumer and Kaspersky+Avast for business, but recently, they ditched Kaspersky altogether.

    Yep, it's confirmed.

    I have read also that it was until the last year's versions that business & enterprise products were using the F-Prot engine as well.

    well, my 2 laptops that are only turned on once or twice a day have not been updating. Set it to connect on internet connevtion and to update once a day but nothing works. Also started to run a tad heavy on both laptops. So back to the only thing that works for me.

    Good job, trjam! :D

    Congrats mate, you recently lured me successfully into trying G-Data 2010 (btw: was nice to see my otherwise fast system finally crumbling down for once and behaving like some GHz were mysteriously stolen :D ) but from now on I (PRAY to :) ) strongly resist the urge to install everything and all that someone *blink* enthusiastically recommends and praises here at Wilders until he is suddenly in the mood to change his avatar *AGAIN*. :argh:

    Just in case you do your marketing-avatar-thingy :) to throw people off your scent: In vain :) because you are recognized by your nickname, the comments of the fooled :p and therefore the trick really works only one time. So I hope. :D

    Damn .. should I try Avast 5 beta or not!?! :argh: :D

    Relax please :) .. just kidding and staying for the day with Prevx (remember? :D ) as only protection! At least this is the plan. Right now .. (what time is it? :) ) .. but once infected with 'Wilders-AKA-Quest-For-The-Best-AV-Disease' you never know, RIGHT? :cool:

    Well .. they should have quarantined us all LONG before! :D

    Hi!

    Does someone had connecting to Steam Counter Strike Source or Team Fortress 2 servers when the latest G Data Internet Security 2010 installed on Windows 7?

    The new software update (20.2.0.6) was released recently and contains the following key changes:


    - Optimization of software and signature updates

    - Windows 7-optimization

    - E-mail scanning optimized at different points

    - Improved communication between Outlook plug-in and port monitoring

    - Optimizing the use of firewall with VPN connections

    - TeamSpeak fixed on Windows 7

    - Faster display of the behavior of the software in minutes

    I installed Gdata 2010 AV on my netbook and ran down the malware url list. It doesn't matter
    if it is flash/shockwave droppers or nasty fake av software GDATA was blocking it and working within Sandboxie.

    I like trying new software then getting rid of it to try some of the stuff I know and use. Then I come back later and try the new product out again and realize, it really is good.;)
