Review on MKS-Vir Antivirus Software

I know that the number of definitions in a database do not give the full story, but mks_vir has over 90,000 at the present time; http://www.stormbyte.com/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&func=view&catid=2&id=39 and growing!!!!

Together with the recent improvements in the program it is starting to look like a serious contender to the big AV's.

 

I have been keeping track of this AV (currently my on-access and on-demand scanner), and slowly seeing positive improvements. In addition, the support is good in terms of responsiveness and they do their best to respond in English.

Unlike NOD32 which takes long time for member's virus submission response from ESET, these guys from Poland responds no longer than a day and acknowledges for submitting the samples. I really respect their response and the value of expertise they put in both the AV and customer support. Big contender of NOD32 in terms of memory usage, detection, and visual look.

Keep up the good work MKS_VIR 2004!

 

Anyone else see the update yet and added features? Or has it not been released? Maybe Mariusz was reporting that they reached a certain milestone in the development process..

 

Take a look at the explanation here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?p=235825#post235825

Online scanner uses activex control - this is only correctly supported by IE.

There is an activex plugin for mozilla, bo this one is REALLY buggy. You can try it at YOU OWN RISK at http://skaner.mks.com.pl/skaner_mozilla.html. If your mozilla gets crashed every time then - delete npmozax.dll from mozilla's plugins folder - this will put your mozilla back on feet .
