    Now with Symantec Endpoint Protection 11 (SEP 11), an anti-everything software client, strings virtual barbed wire around your business's PCs. A host-based intrusion prevention system (HIPS) uses TruScan proactive threat scanning to prevent zero-day attacks and at the same time locks down the desktop so that only authorized apps can run. Device control regulates the copying of files to USB memory devices. Antivirus and antispyware features (along with anti-rootkit protection) guard against malware.

    Download it and tell me if you can update it? If you can't then it's not free anymore if you can then it's free again?

    Yes, it seems to be running in hyper speed.Time to delete everything and start all over again.Only this time, enable your quick launch so you don't need to keep clicking the start menu for IE and also in your IE select close this box when the download completes, instead of having to click it every time, providing a download doesn't get cought first and unable to download.

    Also stop talking about marijuana, cocaine and magic mushrooms in your videos LOLOLOLOL, your current employer and also family members may see these videos :cautious:

    Only drugs I use is my super sexy Zyrtec, Benadryl, and asthma inhaler. :argh:
    The weird thing about the upload is the file plays fine until I upload it to "the youtubes"

    Have you tested ThreatFire?

    While not a true stand alone anti virus, just curious to see how it does.

    I have not tested threatfire stand alone.. However I did test Spyware Doctor With Antivirus which has a "threatfire" like behavior guard based on threatfire.

    Yes, perhaps that's why I don't see MSE or GeSWall. Also, did you do Prevx? :)

    MSE, and GesWall will be reuploaded after I edit the videos.. PrevX has not been tested it appears their trial is a detect mode only.. I did test threatfire which detected everything I threw at it, and then I tested for false positives, and got none..

    After seeing threatfire in action, and my PCTools Spyware Doctor with Antivirus it really makes me appreciate how well PCTools has done on this technology, and how well it is identifying threats.. I tried installing Winrar, Winzip, Winamp, and a couple other apps and it didnt even warn me.. But got all ten zero days.

    It would be interesting to see some security combo in action, like say vipre+pctools firewall or panda cloud+outpost firewall free or online armor++ (the one with the integrated av scanner, ikarus I think), or say nod32+privatefirewall. Better if the combo is light on system resources though.
    ;)

    Cheers

    Lots of your video don't play. I find MP4 works great on YT FLV is faster to upload than MP2 would be though.
