I'm using the German version and I really like it

Great news! I am testing TotalCare 2011 at the moment. Looks good and suite is running smoothly.

Malware detection should be good, both Avast and Bitdefender under the hood.

 

The new changes seem to be:

 

What version of engine(BD and avast) they might be using avast v4.8 or v5 and same for BD

 

Current BD and avast 4.8 (at the moment).

The behaviour blocker works pretty well, even on x64 systems - no irritating alerts on os tasks, compared to other solutions.

 

Is the "Checking Download" popup annoyance still there?

 

still a bit heavy for my tastes imo but overall an improvement over last year

 

So what is new the cloud technology and the BB(not concerning some features posted by vijayind)

Have you tested BB what kind of alerts does it gives (Sorry for asking questions but I can't install the BETA version as I don't know german )


EDIT: What about the firewall part?

 

You can install the beta, cause the English version is available:
http://mirror01.gdata.de/dl_users/qs/qstmp/Beta2011/ENG_R_Beta_2011_TC.exe

New cloud technology covers protection against phishing sites and infected sites in general.

The BB detected a lot of different fake av's and different other malware samples when executed.

The firewall seems to be optimized regarding overall performance.

 

Good I didn't install it then if it's heavy. I'm going for lightest and tightest setup possible... would still be fun to test though. The installer said it couldn't access the Installshield (or whatever) service so it couldn't continue.


EDIT: Yay! It failed because I was away when it finished and a pop-up came from CIS which was auto-blocked.

 

Much, much better than the previous version

 

Like this;

 

I guess this question is needed to ask for me at least... how does the whole suite compare to using a sandbox/policy based HIPS, SRP and recovery solution? I can't imagine this suite being lighter for one referring to what a user has already said about its footprint.

 

Finally in english, i waited like 3 months for this

 

Does it still slow down downloads from web sites like 2010 does?

 

Thanks man I have started downloading the setup

 

Not for me. I am getting max speed here (same as w/o TC2011).

 

The newest version has been released in germany, won't take long for the rest to follow ( http://www.gdata.de/ )

when out the 2011 final english? thanks

 

Watching the "review"

 

The detection is not quite good

 

You base that on what?

edit: on that youtube link? Avira also failed in a review from languy99... bad detection?

 

I'm guessing he had an old beta version or a corrupt install. I just tested the latest beta and it blocked all threats I threw at it. I also tested the web guard and it's really powerful.

 

Lol, no AV is bullet proof vs Zero Day threats
