With AVs, I look at tests like this, but what I find most convincing is personal experiences over time - experiences where you use the computer...
When I used Norton, it didn't even warn me for many files through reputation. Sonar alerted on some clean files. It is no better than the others,...
The king?? I would disagree on that. It's good, but no better than Avira, Avast, and Kaspersky with zero-day malware.
No, I don't think you are strange, but I disagree on philosophy. If they offer free stuff, that's their doing and we should not feel guilty. Now...
I wonder how well detected by other AVs those samples were, though. Avira's engine is known for high detection.
I use a mix of free and paid. I pay for Prevx because I think the behavior blocker is worth it. But free AVs and firewalls fit my needs. I would...
Avast is my favorite AV; I'm just trying to work out a couple issues I've been having.
I think that's what it might be. I'll be on the internet for a while and then suddenly have to unplug/plug the router due to connectivity problems.
I've been having internet connectivity problems with the free version, and I think the problem is Avast. Have put on AntiVir again to make sure.
KIS has always had a major impact on my browsing with the web shield.
Got an answer from Avira; it's a false positive.
Thanks, all - I have posted at the AntiVir forums.
Yep, downloaded it from that site.
AntiVir says it is the TR/Dldr.Agent.5149621 Trojan.
Hi - AntiVir just detected the latest installation file for WeatherPulse as a trojan. WeatherPulse is a desktop weather program. I scanned it on...
Using the free version; it seems to be running pretty well here on 64-bit. AIS was slower and I probably can't afford it anyway. I have a...
Re: New test version of Prevx and SafeOnline - v3.0.5.43 Still have one problem with HTTP site monitoring on maximum - browsing is noticeably...
Re: New test version of Prevx and SafeOnline - v3.0.5.43 Fixed the problem here, too. Thanks, Prevx!
Symantec is not my #1, though they are not bad. I still think Avast and Avira are the best for me.
Yes, I just saw it has been reported.. seems to be a bug with SafeOnline.
It happens whenever I watch a video at a site like YouTube. I have to re-start Firefox due to a complete lack of response in Firefox. Problem goes...
What is the recommended SafeOnline setting for HTTP sites? I put it to Maximum, but got Firefox stickiness when scrolling.
Thanks! I'll try both web shield and SafeOnline, then. I was wondering because the two have some overlapping duties.
Would SafeOnline conflict with: 1. A web shield like Avast 5's 2) KeyScrambler Free
But with other firewalls, I will get an alert that things are going out through the loopback address. I can at least block the action.
