    I used to be a big fan and one of the primary western users. I stopped using it when the new "current" version came out as they removed everything I loved about the old version and ruined it by over-complication. It went from a simple light product that worked to a bloat product full of components that nobody needs or wants while sacrificing performance for it.

    What the hell, this stuff sounds amazing! :D

    I´m surprised that no one has taken it for a test-drive yet.

    I really need to get myself a virtual machine (for testing). :)

    Its stupid fancy words that mean nothing. Twister lost all favor with us that were its western users when they started using BS marketing tricks and bloat ad-on technologies that really did nothing but turn the product into a glorified pit of random stuff nobody knew what it does due to the marketing team going crazy on words. Example "Cloud Security, Digital Neural Network" means "cloud" like the same that panda or wsa has. They just spice it up for marketing reasons because... stupid.

    I tried it too weeks ago and found it too heavy for my liking.

    Yes, I know, I was being a bit sarcastic, most of the time it´s just boast and brag. :thumbd:

    For example, back in the days you had this HIPS called NovaShield, it turned out to be total crap.

    Check out this hilarious topic: :argh:

    My bad, I forgot to search.

    But it doesn´t look like people have tested the advanced features. ;)
