What's the name of a benevolent yet legitimate antivirus then?
I'm not getting the connection between using (right or wrong) ObjectIDs to speed up scanning, and not giving a f**k about me the user... :blink:
Heck, the same happens with the OS itself -- That's why there are people running Linux ;D Personally, as long as the AV is adequate, I'm more...
Meh, CSJ is entitled to his opinion; I just don't necessarily agree with him. ;) The only issue I have with suites of any sort is relying on...
I don't know about that. While I think KIS is very good, its not foolproof (no software is). AntiBot is simply a behavior blocker outside of KIS...
While I don't run KIS on my machine (it slows down browsing for MY install - My wife's machine runs fine with it though), it is one of the best...
Backup is definitely the weak point. If you go over to their forums, that's the one with the greatest activity / complaints (possibly tied with...
Honestly? Its lightweight enough that having a second behavioral blocker on the machine isn't causing any issues. I know KIS pretty much covers it.
You're basing the effectiveness of the software on a small sample set you've selected? One could make almost any AV look bad in such an example....
tiagozt, this is the second thread you've blasted Norton in, without any real proof of there being an issue. Could you kindly provide a little...
I actually don't think it will take that long. They have the money, marketing, and now the resources to continue the improvements they started....
On a similar token (and I mentioned it earlier in the thread), it recognized .db files as being system files for backups -- Meaning your encrypted...
Here's my two cents: Think of AV as an insurance policy moreso than day to day software. If you're getting viruses day in and day out, you're...
What tests are you basing this on? ???
I found it on their forums when I wanted to do this, so I can't claim full credit ;D Its still annoying that you can't elect what to backup (I...
If you're talking about the 1.x versions, you're right on target. However, they made great strides with the 2.x version (may have something to do...
Actually, you're not wrong from a cleaning and protection perspective. It WILL do that. The current version for many is also light on resources...
Midway, one way around the 2nd hard drive issue is to create a share on that drive and use that for backups. I have OneCare on two of the PCs in...
Well crud, now I regret updating my paid one >:( I would have bet money that the free AVG and Avast made you click an update button to get...
My understanding was that it was only part of the paid versions (at least for AVG and Avast). So there is automatic updates with the products?
Without knowing how tech savvy your grandparents are, if the option is there for paid software I'd suggest it, if only to ensure updates are...
Personally, I don't care so much about the country of origin as much as the company's success in providing corporate / business products. If...
Microsoft did what they always do - They hired up the competition, taking top players from many of the big AV companies ;D Their product has...
Is there a good free backup software package out there that's Vista compatible?
Well, I wouldnt bet on the downfall of Microsoft just yet. However, I do question how well they can create security software. Their core...
