Panda Antivirus Pro 2012 11.00.00

I contacted customer care to upgrade my product ... so many days .. no reply

i wanted to test 2012 version

 

let us know if you end up hearing back. i was contemplating contacting them to upgrade mine too, as i was planning on renewing in oct/nov when my sub's up.

 

Let me know which country and contact email you sent it to and I can get it routed to the correct department.

thx for link

reading it

 

just received hotfix hfp171104s3 tonight via update, requiring a reboot - what's in this update? can't find it anywhere on panda's site.

 

Includes a couple of bug fixes related to activation and notifications and a russian language fix.

 

pbust, you update the heuristics engine every 2 weeks right ?

 

thanks for the info


if you don't mind one more question: does the web guard in IS/GP protect against malicious javascript or other similar stuff?

 

Trying Panda Antivirus Pro 2012.

Some pros:

+ Setup process was easier than before, including obtaining the trial key which didn't have to be copied and pasted from email, was activated through the interface.
+ Didn't require a reboot. Only after installing the firewall module was a reboot needed.
+ After running a full disk scan seems to be relatively quiet. Two processes are using 10mb of memory or much less, peaked at 100mb when running the full scan. But otherwise seems to be very light.
+ Layout is easy to use. Like how users can check for windows updates from the AV interface. Help file is very thorough, if you are needing to create a rescue cd and so on.
+ Like the smart firewall allowing common programs to have outbound only. Good to see this is included in the AV.
+ Default settings don't seem to need to be changed for most users.

For those interested in youtube reviews, Languy did a review including installing the virtual browser, although we know it's just a personal review, MBAM/Hitman Pro follow-up scan found 1 additional file from 250+ malware files. First couple of files which got through, may have been just unwanted programs.

just trying PAV 2012,facebook promo not firewall installed.

One problem that was really annoying me,it said "no firewall turn on" on start-up. It appears ~15 secs then gone.

It also happens when I tried Panda Cloud couple months ago.

any thought ? I am in XP Pro SP3

thank

 

Re: Panda Anti virus Pro 2012 11.00.00

If I purchase Panda Internet security 2011 (Amazon £25.00) can I upgrade to 2012 free of charge or do I have to pay for upgrade? I have searched pandas site and goggled but could not find the answer.
Thanks

 

Re: Panda Anti virus Pro 2012 11.00.00

yup, you'll need to register the key on pandasecurity.com first before installing the product, and the system will automagically upgrade the key to work with the latest product. after you've registered, you can then download the 2012 product and input the key, your email address and your newly assigned client number in the product. if you've previously had a panda product, you can merely log in to your client account and register the new key, and the same upgrade will take place on the back end, allowing you to use the newest product.

here's the registration link - pretty sure this is the worldwide site (not just the USA)

P.S. if the 2010 product is still available and cheaper than the 2011 product, you can always get that instead and it'll work the same. just register the key first so it gets upgraded.

 

m0unds, Many thanks for quick reply.

 

you betcha.

 

Hello, I was wandering what does hfp171104s6 fix? I hope Pbust will answer this

 

Yeah "Pbust"

Can you post the change-log for the auto-fix hfp171104s6

 

- Optimizes behavioral heuristic analysis to avoid incompatibilities with third-party applications
- Enables web autologon in all shop links

 

Could you please give the source you found this information ??

 

You can see this information when you execute this HF.The hotfix can be found in panda antivirus folder.

 

seen it on my folder, thank you

 

all hotfix installations will backup themselves into [InstDir]\Hotfix. run them and you can see their changelogs.

 

Thanks

 

I tried it a few days and what I don't like is:

1) It took nearly 10 seconds to open the main GUI when you click on the panda icon I haven't seen such a sluggish behaviour in any other AV ...

2) The windows firewall asked me several times to allow Panda connections - but why? Other AV (AVG/Avira/Avast) don't ask for any settings in the firewall ...

Don't get me wrong - I like Panda, but I really think Panda Cloud AV is the best product of Panda
