Full F-Secure + Adaware Pro for free w/Lifetime License.

Sorry for the bother but , one other thing , if you get time . Is this Shaw download the latest version of F-Secure ? Thanks in advance

 

I have noticed one thing about f-secure that you might be interested in. It checks for uodates every hour and when it first checks It slows the comp for about five seconds. That is not anything to worry about but It is something you might would like to know.

It is the latest version of F-Secure Internet Security 2005 and the F-Prot Antispyware is the latest version of adaware pro.

 

maybe having a "meg" is a problem... don't ya need more??

 

I had a ram strip go bad and I am only running 512 at the moment and am having no trouble at all.

lol . OUCH !! You got me . Yep .

 

Big C .
I cannot get it to scan all drives . I click it but nothing happens . Gee whiz . I would like to use it as an on demand and leave NOD in resident . I do not understand why it will not scan .

 

You have tried this

 

Here are some settings I have

 

last one

 

okay...
I'm not at home rightnow, so here's a pretty problem...
My uncle has NOD32 trial and VSE 8i...
He wants me to install f-secure right now... got about one hour. Would I need to uninstall these AVs [both are running real time... it is important that they're NOT uninstalled... onaccess scans may be disabled temporarily though]

I just grabbed shaw secure for him, and also I brought over this...
http://europe.f-secure.com/exclude/download/fsav2005f-06.exe
since he also distrusts online installers.

any way to install it WITHOUT uninstalling the other AVs?

 

Thanks Big guy . I understand it all . It just will not run . This is what I have said all along in comparing KAV engines with NOD or any other . KAV engines have a real problem getting along with some programs . So . Off it goes . This is why I always say that NOD is the overall winner . If for no other reason , KAV hates alot of things and will not play nicely . My God . I uninstalled pcIP , Prevx , NOD , and turned off PG , RD , and Outpost . NOPE ! Refuses to work . KAV is good at detection but , my programs are important to me . So , KAV based engines will never go on my machine again . I find this to be very sad on their part . Especially AV makers . They should TRY to make their software compatible . This one is not . I know it works for some . Not on here though so , NOD , again , wins outright . lol . I like NOD . I just wanted to use this Shaw secure for on demand . No response . Very sad . Thank you anyway

 

Am i missing something.
Isnt this for their customers only.
You have to give name and e mail address ,so if you are not will it be discontinued.

 

I don't really trust rebranded AV's from a 3rd party... But ok, feel free to test it, and hope more people will finally discover the power of F-Secure

 

Thanx Guys, this is most welcome as secondary av scanner

really appreciated!!!

 

If it installs.

 

Yeah, what's behind this deal? Who's sponsoring and what for?

 

I think I am positive that they will promote their services I guess...there are other isps that give away norton or mcafee products but you gotta be a customer then...It is strange I must admit giving away full working top products...

I will try this evening an experiment not sure about it but I'll keep you informed.

 

There sure seems to be a push for Cable companies here in Canada to start using F-Secure. Cogeco already uses it. It is starting to be a selling point for them. I think the big kicker is the tech help from the cable company. My neighbor got it hooked up(switching from Bell), and while the tech was there he installed F-Secure, and then made sure he knew how to use it. The largest Internet company here is Bell. They are giving away Freedom Antivirus by aptly titled ZEROknowledge.

 

Seems like F Secure have targeted their marketing strategy in Canada already

 

what about non-Canadian users?
also where the istallders are stored after downloading for later off-line installation?

 

Why would anyone run two AV products realtime? That makes no sense to me, and can only lead to system slowdowns and instability. Talk about being overly paranoid. You'd be better to run an AV, then a backend security product like DesktopArmor, PrevX or SafeNSec or something. <confused>

 

Well, wouldn't work for me... after a several hour download, it began to install and I got hit with an error message, corrupt file or something, I don't recall what. I was too busy cursing. So.......I'm not willing to go through any more hours of waiting anxiously for something that might not happen. I'll stick to smaller downloads until broadband discovers this area of my State.

 

I wonder if this Canadian company have made a mistake by making this offer available to everyone. Hmmm... I would have thought that F-Secure would have put on terms and conditions on this offer being limited to North America. It makes no sense to me that this offer appears to be Worldwide, I had no problem downloading and getting a key here in the UK, so if the software is free who is going to pay F-Secure?

 

In Finland, this goes fine, AFTER 2.5 hours installing.

Btw, AntiVir isn't removed, still no problems.
