    I 've installed it over Shadow Defender for now and seems ok. I like the fact that is very light. One thing that puzzles me is why the tray executable wants internet access outbound. I blocked it with no ill effects.

    Now i think i will try find some malware to see what happens with it in action.

    So far i like its GUI. :D

    It's supposed to be something like MBAM only better. :D


    Anyway, i don't have it on the explorer menu. Anyone else running this in Win 7 x64? It's supposed to have a scan option in the explorer's menu, but i don't see it. Unless there's a problem running it with Shadow Defender... :cautious:

    Well, the email that i received has as title "IObit Security 360 License Code". It doesn't mention anything about 1 year, but that should be it.

    Yes, that's it. I got some malware, about 400+ pieces, Avast left only 31 after the demand scan, now i am scanning C drive with Iobit to see what it will find from the remaining 31. Then i am going to let it scan them all. The problem is that i don't have a scan option in the explorer's context menu. So i have to scan the entire C drive. :ouch:

    Well, from the whole package, 37 were left after IObit:

    Of course since both Avast and Iobit left some, they may be dud files.

    Anyway, for this sample, i consider this a very good performance. Note: Since they weren't exes, i changed Iobit's settings not to limit scan only to exe files.

    What i don't know is how good it it in real time protection. Seems many folks said that it has problem there.

    My main issue is that i don't have it in the right click explorer context menu. o_O

    Yes, but given the reports about realtime scanning not working, i will leave the bb testing to someone more brave (with VM), because Shadow Defender i run is a beta and in case it misses it, i wouldn't want to infect my PC. :D

    Well, seems you are confirming that its real time scanner is still sleeping. :D I think it has potential, but apparently it's buggy in real time.

    Thanks for the brave attempt! :D
