    thanks. The only 2 bugs I reported with the older beta which have been fixed was that the AV module inc. version/build never appeared in the 'about' window and after I completed a full scan (although no malware was detected) there was no option to view the report.

    Glad to hear they're listening to the bugs being reported.

    Been running this for five days now and I have to say it's running great! Definitely doesn't seem to slow my system down as much as IS2008. I also haven't come across any bugs yet. Just looking through a lot of threads here ppl seem to be having problems with a whole variety of security apps so it's good to see FS doesn't seem to follow this trend!

    It certainly does make a change. I guess that's why the FS forums hardly have any posts either! I'm sure it's not that there aren't many ppl using FS.

    I didn't have any problems with it so worth giving a try.

    I'm usually nervous of beta / RC versions, but this looks tempting. Does anyone know if I could use it with an OEM license?

    It's still beta. So you need a beta license number
