F-Prot Revisted

I have not this it since 64 bit was in beta. Having installed it I am amazed how light it is. On 64 bit it is working flawlessly. With the limited testing I can do it did very well at detecting what I threw at it. I am impressed.

 

Ok Trjam I got to ask, What is the point of this thread. Went to comment but really nothing to comment about.

 

Just curious, what have you tired against it? Trojans, virus, spyware, rogue software, adware, rootkits, etc...

 

The problem I see with F-prot is the lack of signatures for spyware/adware/etc. "other" malware. They have said it themselves that it is recommended to run some other anti-spyware scanner besides F-prot. I think they have not had a major update with something new since version 6 came few years ago.

..But still the 29$ offer for 5 computers is very nice.

 

Evidently the complete F-prot staff took Christmas & New Year vacations -- no signature updates were issued during that period.

However, I can't say as I blame them.

 

Nope. Someone just spilt a glass of wine on the auto update robot. They were just to happy to fix it at the time.

 

I have to ask. Did you buy a licence?

 

Haha,

Why not try Returnil Home Free, it includes F-protect AV (for free )

 

nah, went back to Prevx and MSE.

 

Now that comment made me laugh, big time.

 

trjam, fastest AV switcher in town. He even changes before one AV can even perform its daily update.

 

No updates in weekends either

 

With someone that has been around as long as you have..... You should already know this lol.

 

And now Avast.....3 switches in one day.

 

Look at the bright side. If there is ever a bad update Trjam will be the first to let us know.

 

Like an alcoholic, I've known about the addiction, I'm just hoping it will fix itself.

trjam, you must scan about 10 open files before changing program. Enough is enough!
