    A little curious why those are included in samples if they're actually not containing anything. :D

    If I've understood your problem, your license allow you to just use CSI and not Edge features.

    If I haven't understood, sorry :) If you could better explain your problem, then it would be really useful :) Thank you :)

    That's why I've written 19 samples instead of 24 :D If 5 are zero bytes files, they shouldn't considered

    i have an un-registered CSI licence too, and no idea what to do with it due to the fact i use EDGE. :doubt:

    and wasn't CSI the same price as prevx 2.0? ... surely, they (I) should be allowed to swap to an EDGE licence.

    What does the report at its page (at Prevx) say about its behaviour?

    If it's a downloaded game it could as well have malware included to at the same time infect systems where it's present.

    NIS is not alerting you about it, right?

    I just did a deep scan with optimizing letting it go until the end.

    It took 2 minutes and didn't found nothing. The system was responsive without problems.

    It seems that using optimizing scanning makes some difference.

    of course, and a few more too that i found today.

    and the 19 remaining are the samples that are undetected completely (scanner+behaviour), i havnt checked the amount of undetected from the scanner.

    ive noticed quite a few have already been fixed.

    also, i have an old Prevx 2.0 licence that the 'licence validator' correctly recognises as an un-registered Prevx 2.0 licence, however... i cant swap this for an EDGE licence, which is weird.

    any answer? :)

    no problem :)

    You should be able to swap Prevx 2.0 license to Edge. If you got any errors, please send me your key by PM or open a ticket on Prevx Support and I'll check it :)

    Not quite sure if this includes Family/Bis licenses? Are you allowing mix and match for P2 and Edge or is it as I suspect all one or the other?

    NB: FAO Joe-Ref the offline assist - many thanks and quick update: the legit h/w loads and works blazing fast on IntelP4 3GHz 1Gb RAM (14s for 7k+ files)as we'd all expect but the Mac Core2Duo is still somewhat problematic (from 2.5min to 25min!! for 7k+ files) but I beginning to suspect this is down to virtualised hardware/VMWare Fusion and constrained memory (740MB). McAfee is VirusScan+ but license is keyed to VMFusion so I can't (legally) port to other Intel test platform. (I'll look at installing some Demo's instead).
    I assume delta between 165 & 172 Edge builds was just the Windows Explorer context?. More specific details later (offline) in week - Thks again.

    Please, can you uninstall your CSI, download Edge setup and then install it? After this, apply your CSI license.

    You should have Edge installed in trial mode and CSI cleanup enabled.

    Try this :)

    Yep, we most of times work even on Sunday :D Tonight I went sleeping at 5am :D (PrevxHelp knows this :D)

    ok, last night the licence validator said Prevx 2.0 un-registered, but unrecognised for an EDGE swap, and now it says it doesnt recognise the key at all.

    also, one that last night said unregistered edge licence, now says expires jul 2009.

    not a happy chappy.

    No idea, it's not hidden by any means, it's just sitting in a folder together with lots of other apps, has +A attribute, nothing else.

    Code:
    D:\Install\Security\Norton Removal Tool>attrib Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
    A          D:\Install\Security\Norton Removal Tool\Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
    
    D:\Install\Security\Norton Removal Tool>
    
    BTW - report where? </lazy> :)
