Prevx RC 3.0.5.3

Yes you will - we aren't mentioning SafeOnline in the "License Information" page within product yet and we have a specific workaround in place just for beta testers to give you SafeOnline functionality which doesn't necessarily update your license key to reflect it.

Let me know if you need anything or if the license renewal is bumpy at all from the new release

 

PM'ing me the license would be the easiest way

 

Re: RC v3.0.5.3

I think things have gotten a little muddy, but maybe it's just me. Most companies have a free version, and a pro/paid version. Prevx now has four versions. Seems like one or two too many.

Re: RC v3.0.5.3

i do have to agree, this adds a lot of confusion and hassle for new customers...

 

Hi Joe

I own a Prevx3 1 Year Malware Removal and Protection for 2 PCs license. What must I do to upgrade? Thank you.

 

Re: RC v3.0.5.3

Exactly. Over the past day or two I having been thinking about pulling the trigger on a three year license for what was, at the time, their top product. Now another "level" of protection is available, and it seems like it should have just been included in their existing top level product. But instead it is another $10 on a three year license.

Every time a new feature is added, is the price going to go up incrementally?

 

Re: RC v3.0.5.3

SafeOnline, while included in the main product on-download, is technically a separate product - not just an additional feature. A similar behavior takes place with internet security suites: you pay extra for the additional components on top of the antimalware but you can still buy the antimalware product separately if wanted.

You can, of course, just pay for the antimalware components and just leave SafeOnline in the free version which may be a desirable option for users who don't think that their PC is infected or have enough other layers of security to satisfy their protection needs.

We separate out the different products so that users can choose what they want. There are many users who, for one reason or another, only want cleanup functionality - many of whom only want it for 1 month, which is why we offer that option. On top of that, you can get realtime protection or SafeOnline on top of both, rather than forcing users into a "one-size fits all" model.

 

Send me a PM if it isn't automatically upgraded from beta testing

 

Re: RC v3.0.5.3

in theory it sounds complicated but i will give prevx a good job on making it decently clear on their new site design, prevx always seems to have a very nice, clear and concise website that helps

and thx for checking my licenses prevxhelp

 

Hi Joe,

Why does it still says Release Candidate on the final?

TH

Edit: I downloaded a fresh copy and all is fine now!

 

Interesting...but I don't have 3.0.5.4 yet and trying to update comes back with "You have the latest..." message.

 

We have some parts of our updating switched off currently, and it may be that v3.0.5.3 won't upgrade to v3.0.5.4 if you've downloaded the official release of v3.0.5.3 first.

You can, of course, manually run the newer installer and it will upgrade your existing copy automatically

 

Joe, do you have an idea how long it will take to develop the 64-bit version of SafeOnline?

 

of course...silly me. WIll try that.

 

We're hoping to have it out within the next month but are making good progress with it so far so it may be out sooner

 

Cool.

 

Hi, how can i see of the rootscan is working ? always when i start prevx to scan i see the mention of rootscan only for a part of a second and then he goes scanning (starting at 9 %)

windos vista latest update and bullgard 8.7 en the rc 3.0.5.3 from prevx !

 

The rootkit scan is an inherent part of Prevx - only a small portion of it takes place at the beginning of the scan but the rest takes place while the scan is going (as files are read to be scanned, they are also checked for rootkits) so the behavior you're seeing is most likely fine.

 

Build 3.0.5.8 auto installed here and running well.

Any info on changes included?

 

Sometimes Prevx crashes when you go to "Undo Cleanup" and press "Remove All" when there is nothing to clean. I got an error about adress something. Couldnt take a screenshot. Prevx restarted alone.
Latest Beta.
