Its not the detection that sucks - its everything else about the product... The speed, the drag on system, the bugs, etc... Norton isn't a...
I'm not sure this test really has value for anyone picking an AV.
Norton products scare me, but i've considered re-evaluating them in the future. Let us know how it works out. They always were too heavy, or too...
Switch to Firefox.
Viruses = threats. But I find a wide variance of what people consider "Working fine here", as opposed to what I consider working fine. Which is...
I had serious problems when I tried F-Prot last year. 1) CPU usage would spike, dramatically - for unknown reasons. 2) It would crash random...
and in the last 5 minutes i've seen AVG miss 3 samples.. My point is, Jotti's is useless for determining the quality, or lack thereof, of an...
Agreed on this point. I have so many AV licenses given to me by the companies ( I do malware/virus research and security consulting), and have...
To paraphrase my point even more. I have a trojan I was playing with this week, the trojan drops an INI file, a text file, and a useless config...
Jotti's scanner should *NOT* be used to determine whether an AV is good or bad.. There are several reasons for this, namely, the results are...
I doubt he would, programming kernal level hooks and api in XP is a whole different world. Which is why companies are dropping legacy OS support...
Thats rediculous. Why even bother? Most companies have completely cut off support for old legacy OS's, and this company is releasing new stuff...
Thats extremely relevant information that Blue posted. Of course, as he said, depends on the circumstances. I don't need more than a few...
Thats great, but I also get heartburn when I eat Taco Bell, and you probably don't. In otherwords, everyone has unique experiances, opinions and...
Soldiers:Heroes of WWII was the big one NOD32 caused to crash. There was a fairly significant thread on the support forums there about it. I...
I have a license for NOD32, and have tried it on multiple machines, and dozens of configuration options and have found the following: * It can...
use Dr.Web.. Light as you can possible get.. Then throw Safe'n'Sec on to shore up your protections since it really uses no resources at all....
I thought SSM was terrible. Oh, and why after 2 years is does his site STILL take 30 minutes to load? Does he host it on a 14.4 modem? I mean,...
Well so far it seems SNS covers most everything. I was pleasantly surprised to see it cover services, control panel, INI files and BHO's as well...
Sounds good. Any comments on the slowdown I noticed on my 3.4Ghz system? In general it seemed everything was a bit slower. I like the...
Dr.Web is excellent. I tried every AV known to man, and ended up with the Doctor. So light, never conflicts with anything, and excellent...
Thats wierd, why would it speed up unless it caches session files with checksums or something? I'm not convinced I want to switch to this from...
Its extremely expensive, but seems like a Safe'n'Sec type product. http://www.resplendence.com/antivirus Curious if anyone has tried it.
Shaw is nothing more than rebranded F-Secure, the programs are indentical, just a different bitmap in the internet. I think F-Secure blows, so...
My only complaint with this app was the slowdown on my PC. I don't really expect noticable slowdowns on a 3.4Ghz machine, so it was...
