Dr. Web Security Space Has Been Released

it's running fine here, so why would I admit problems that don't exist.

At first it was the addin thing, which has nothing to do with V5, regardless of what you may think.

Secondly, it was computers freezing up, these are incompatibilites with other softwares, I've experienced this for myself before the release.

So tell me, what else is there?

Http scanner slowing browsing, don't think so.

what else can you think of. )

 

Just because it's running ok on your system, stop neglecting complaints by others. Grow up man! Version 4 never gave me any problems whatsoever combined with any piece of software, so why would version 5 do that? To me it proves, they never tested it properly, compared to v.4. One of the big advantages of Dr. Web, never any compatibility problem, goes down the drain.

 

Let them work on it and release a few patches, I believe you can truely see how it works after a few months of bug reports and released updates. Remember that v4 didn't have the self-protection driver and majority of the conflicts are probably caused by other software attempting to interfere with Dr.Web files or processes, which is typical for security programs. I believe it only needs a bit of fine tuning and that's all. People judge it already, make quick conclusions and over react because of few after-release errors and a few complaints.

It isn't wise to compare v4 testing vs. v5 testing since v4 structure of the program had remained same for many years.. probably ten years(except for spider shield driver)but now it's changed and the new version has only been here for a month or so. It is also impossible to test the software against all the millions of different software combinations, operating system settings, modifications, etc. Problems will appear even if you test it thoroughly.

I hope that people would be more patient and just let the program mature a bit. If they are unable to fix these issues, then decide if it's "crap" or "down the drain."

 

Can't stand the party feeling when there's a new release of a piece of software, that's been waited for a very long time. Eevery week there was a childish remark regarding the probable release date, placing bets etc.Remember? Now it's here......and not functioning the way it should be..........those party people still shout that it is ok. After such a long time before release, it should be a hell of a lot better than it is now!

 

oh ill be testing this again but ill wait a few releases till more of the bugs are worked out its just to unstable for me i cant even boot to vista with it i get welcome them bsod.. reboot.. this is one i was waiting for to try and hopefully they will get the next release right

 

off topic remark removed

The majority of the feedback for v5 has been very positive.

The fact that a few wilderers are having problems, makes the software a problem? .... Don't think so.

And other than the total freeze downs and the bsod problem (incompatibiltys + a staff mistake in an addon)

Other than that, I see a user complaining about install/uninstall, so where are all these complaints regarding v5, I fail to see them.

The fact that wilderers are seeing the incompatibilty slow down, is the fact that the majority on here install tons of security apps, it only takes a look at someones signature to see that.

Wilders people do not equate to the general customers of drweb, or ANY antivirus.

Also the majority of incompatibilty problems, I guess are mainly due to the new self protection, which they know is excellent, and I'm sure very proud of, so why should they even change it?

... On a side note, you never even liked 4.44, so don't go lying there by throwing that little comment in to your post.... And you don't like this version either, (as even you expected), easily fixed, its simple, don't use it.

end of....

you dont like it, fine.
problem with it, ask support.

but crying and moaning in with jibberish that makes no sense, i see no reason for it.

 

is that directed to me? i am awaiting the next beta release myself and as i said i will try it again just this release for me does not run right.. just curious..

 

nope, its not directed at you (its much harder to quote people when replying through the iPhone)

 

I would appreciate a Mod to simmer C.S.J down........please. I am not accepting this...period!

 

be quiet, your boring me, we can all do abuse in PM's aswell

you dont like hearing the truth, you came into this thread with nothing on your mind other than to start chaos.

 

Merry Christmas, Ho, Ho, Ho,

 

Well, the first software releases aren't usually perfect. It is just as simple as that. Same happens with every company/developer. I don't understand why people expect that and don't rationalize.

 

Indeed, first software releases can never be perfect, but unfortunately the issues that have surrounded this release go beyond the normal set of issues encountered during a new product release - some people have had "showstopper" bugs with the product. I'm not saying that the product is bad due to this, but a lot of users do not appreciate the time taken to resolve such issues (well, people have busy lives you know ).....Still, I have seen worse releases so I will not go down too hard on Dr.Web, however I do wish they had implemented the new Control Center/GUI before releasing this. It wouldn't have hurt to release the product in January with a completed UI.....

 

I still say the most effective way to grow your product is to open all betas to the public, or at least here for assistance. It just makes sense.

 

i totally agree with this part, this was something i tried to push for on them.

 

First of all, I'd like to apologize to everybody who experienced any issues related to this release. There are issues and they are being investigated and fixed. We are maintaining the open bug tracking system at http://bugs.drweb.com, where you may reports and track bugs.

This release is a really big update to the product. Given a huge number of changes and introduction of new modules, its virtually impossible to catch all bugs before release. This is why some features were promised but not yet released. We decided to ship improved scanning engine and resident protection, http scanner, parental control, self-protection -- that is to say, more security. The GUI part is coming soon, as well as some other features.

We appreciate your comments, critique and, sometimes, patience.

 

Re: Problem with Network Share/ Samba after installing Dr. Web 5?

This has been resolved. I ran Windows Update and installed some new updates and upon reboot my Samba was working with Dr. Web 5 again. I have no idea exactly what the issue was, most likely something unique to my PC.

I've updated the bug report I made with Dr. Web, letting them know that issue is fixed and most likely something limited to my set up with my PC.

The engineers at Dr. Web were very responsive and worked very hard to trouble shoot this problem with me.


Dr. Web 5 is running great on my computer now.

 

Everyone Happy Now

 

Re: I found one cause of internet slowdown with DRWEB

I just realized that the newest few versions of Avant Browser do not seem to agree with DRWEB 5 very well. I see some huge surfing slowdowns whereas with Firefox, it's fast as hell. Maybe somebody should look into this matter.

I don't have any desire to use an AV that is incompatible w/ SAS. To me that means poor coding on behalf of the Dr. Web team. Granted I see at least one (maybe two?) person in this thread who has both co-existing. None the less I am less than impressed.

 

I'm running SAS real time along with Dr. Web 5 with no problems. Been running both for a few weeks now without issue.

 

hmm may have to give this another go. it seems hopefully the issues are either fixed or being fixed quickly

 

Out of character for me but.......

Hats off to Dr Web. Hopefully it puts them back on the mark and gets the ball moving. I'm looking forward to see how V5 does, until I see how it works over the next year or so you wont here a bad comment from me on it.

I know I know.. Boggle

Been away for a wile and only able to check the forums from time to time, but its nice to see all the changes in this market. And the vast IMPROVEMENTS from some company's. Busy time of year for the computer industry.

 

Please someone at Dr Web correct the FP with engine.dll component of Daemon Tools Lite 4.30.3.
