If they were to drop their AVs overnight they would really learn something about security. You can really learn from your mistakes. And you don't...
I'll just post it here in case anyone is interested. I don't know how it compares to VIPRE consumer. 'Sunbelt hired an independant test lab'...
Yes. I have it on my Windows XP Home Edition SP2. systemprofile is a folder. And I'm sure I'm not infected.
Microsoft has a history of creating easy-to-use software. Windows was supposed to be 'easier' to use than DOS (although DOS seemed easier to...
I just reread the thread. As an example of third party cookies getting past the configuration: allow direct cookies, block indirect cookies,...
System: Windows XP Home Edition SP 2 IE 7 higher than default security settings. Right now I'm not 'in the mood' to switch to IE 8. I know...
IMO, it's worse. Auto-renewal is quite common nowadays.
Maybe I was wrong. I just have a hard time trusting Microsoft with 'security'.
I didn't read this entire thread, but I've read the MSE isn't good at prevention against new threats, that is, malware for which no signature...
I'm reserving judgement till they get tested by av-comparatives . It's about time ...
I really wouldn't buy Norton products, but I think more people should be aware of this issue. ;D I know of no other vendor that does this.
How sure are you ? Feel free to send a PM. :D It's unfortunate that VIPRE hasn't participated in av-comparatives. :thumbd:
I personally don't mind that some people (I guess not everyone is invited) learn more about how to create malware. It's not an in-depth course....
One thing that is often ignored in the case of lifetime or multi-year licences is whether the product will be performing as well as you expect....
About changing the router's MAC: In my router could change or 'clone' the MAC. It seemed easy. I was pretty sure I could reverse it ......
I don't know what's going on with HSN. But in general I don't trust lifetime licences. How long is the lifetime ? ::)
Your ISP probably assigns IP addresses to MAC addresses. That's not uncommon. You did hook up your laptop to your router ? An ISP can also assign...
Norton and McAfee started ages ago. I just can't see how you would get the signatures and advanced heuristics for the volume and variety of...
May I kindly suggest you spend your time and money on something else ? You're a second year informatics student. And you've spent over 5 years...
Perhaps the Avira company has the right to offer their product the way they want to, with full disclose about the contribution to the Auerbach...
#4: I presume that graph came from av-comparatives. The steady decline of Kaspersky from 100 % to much less is definitely not good. Of...
Interesting. I checked the WHOIS information of corbitek.ro . While I don't see anything that's clearly a privacy protection/anonymity service,...
One difference is that if you buy it from Microsoft they will/may offer technical support. For OEM versions you need to contact the shop where...
There is no way to know. KIS 2010 has some things 2009 didn't have, like a 'sandbox' and probably a few other things as well that were not...
Is that correct ? That doesn't seem safe. Distribute signed malware, wait some time till many computers have been infected, then activate the...
