Zemana AntiMalware 2 BETA

https://www.zemana.com/WhatsNew/?ProductID=2

an issue which caused the free version to revert to Premium version

 

Scan Type : Smart Scan
Duration : 1m 26s
Scanned Objects : 76649

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 750, Samsung Evo 850 250GB

 

Oh, how many that will be sad now!

 

Zemana AntiMalware 2.30.1.69 (Installed)
Operating System : Windows 7 64-bit
Scan Type : Smart Scan
Duration : 2m 40s
Scanned Objects : 31367

This is on the PC with hard disk drive. With SSD it is of course much faster.

 

Zemana AntiMalware 2.30.3.37 (Installed)
Operating System : Windows 8.1 64-bit
Scan Type : Smart Scan
Duration : 54sec
Scanned Objects : 126210

This is on my office machine (see signature)

 

Scheduled Scan (Every Day) does not run on time. Anyone else having the same problem?

 

zemana is awesome but it has high cpu usage

 

The problem on my machine may be the vast number of photos (I am an amateur nature photographer) it is now scanning (TIFF & CR2 files). I wish there was a way to exclude certain type of files.

 

If the photos are in 1-2-3 folders, go to ZAM settings and exclude that folders from scanning.

 

Thanks for suggestion. Didn't work as I cannot just exclude libraries/pictures. You have to exclude each folder and there are just too many as I set up a folder for each day I shoot.

On my Surface Book, just updated to latest beta portable...Horrendous CPU usage, I think.

 

ZAM Portable Scan:
CPU = 20%
Memory = 267 MB
Disk = 51,1 MB/s
Network = 0 Mbps

 

Much better results with latest beta 2.30.1.75 (portable)

 

@Tarnak

What is your processor model? How much ram memory you have?

 

@TwinHeadedEagle

Processor: 2.4GHz Intel Core i5-6300U (dual-core, 3MB cache, up to 3GHz with Turbo Boost) RAM:8GB

 

I like it, when an AV uses the given resources, to do fast scanning.

I hate it, when software does not make use of modern PCs power.

Same here, almost 12 minutes of scan time and my machine is mild powerful.

 

There still is a bug with excluding threats which was going to be fixed some time ago. When you choose to ignore all the detected items, and you proceed, Zemana closes any running web browsers. Of course there is no need to do this as nothing is being removed. I regularly have to exclude items, because everytime Tencent PC Manager receives a program update, it gets detected again by Zemana.

 

Tencent PC Manager is on Zemana an others watchlist not white-listed so you can report from now till tomorrow Zemana will detect Tencent everytime.

 

I set Zemana to scan at night, while I sleep. As long as Z doesn't interrupt my zzz's, I couldn't care less how long a scan takes, just as long as it's finished when I awake & return to my computer.

 

If you whitelist it won't be detected agaim until a new version of PC Manager is installed. When a new version of PC Manager is installed, becuase of changed files, and also because each new versions gets installed to a new folder under the QQPCMgr folder in Program Files there will be tens of files from PC Manager which get deteced again. Because new versions of PC Manager are continually being released, this is a problem. Sometimes it takes less than a week for Tencent to release an updated version.

 

Another issue which I reported long ago but still exists is that when Zemana has to upload files to analyse them, it uploads a number of files at the same time. Because my ADSL internet connection has a very slow upload speed, uploading multiple files at once slows my internet so much it is barely usable. It would be much better if Zemana would limit the number of files it uploads at once, so files can be uploaded without slowing down my internet down.

Very poor results for ZAM.
