About A-Squared

Many like it . My opinion is simple , a total waste of money . Woof woof

 

LOL

You can always use it the free version.

And it has not been a waste of money for me... since I won it thanks to a contest

 

Oops . Let me rephrase .... A total waste of time and space !

 

I see: even my grand father on his Pentium 75 - 800 MB HDD + 16 MB RAM thinks Winpatrol is a waste of space.

 

This is kinda off topic but WinPatrol is no way a waste

 

No doubt A-Squared is damn good

its a very good antivirus + antispyware software m using it with kis for added security

 

Re: No doubt A-Squared is damn good

Yeah, my favorite

 

Winpatrol is not a waste of space imo.

A-Squared is a pretty good AV, but it flags many, many progs as trojans that are nothing of the kind.

 

could someone tell me what the resource usage of version 5 is (at default settings)? I am on Windows 7 Ultimate, 32 bit. thanks

 

Here you go acr1956.

Yes very light, thanks for the info.

 

Your Welcome!

Only had 2 FP on EAM, one was fixed in a few days.
And just like a week ago ahd one with Adobe .dll, it was fixed within hours after submitting as FP

 

I haven't had many either, maybe one. I just wish they used some kind of scanner caching to speed up scans.

 

I have tried A-squared a couple of times. I got too many FPs and have not used it since.

I don't doubt it will be at the top for detection, but the FP were just too much trouble.

Where does Mamutu fit in?

Yeah, the only thing i the scanning speed, but i got plenty of time while i sleep

 

Same here....

 

PCMag really 'likes' this product

Oh well HAHAHAHA
Everyone has their own opinions, though . . . This gives them a bad reputation since so much people read PCMAG

 

Greetings,
Was going through few posts in this topic and wanted to put few words of mine here. Emsisoft AntiMalware (not Asquared anymore) has come a long away and specially in last few months. Those who have been using it will surely love recent changes and those who are thinking of trying it may be in for a nice surprise.
Emsisoft recently acquired Online Armor, which just makes the product even more enviable. A complete suite as some may say. Regarding FPs, its been a challenge with the product's awesome detection rate, but what better way to prove that challenge is also tackled and the hard work is paying off than Emsisoft's first VB100 award in only second attempt.
We also have come ahead with a security blog with research from our lab and analysis, a little different approach than security blogs.

Seems like, EAM had a bugged update yesterday, if you-re OS in hanging disable EAM startup in safe mode
