Introducing, The New Prevx Edge.

No other security program, but updating to version 3.0.1.1 went without problems, so problem solved for now

 

I have uninstalled using revo uninstaller, rebooted, downloaded again and my one still says 3.0.0.199 - how do I get a later version?

 

I'll PM you a download link - the current version on the website is still .199 3.0.1.1 is still in beta/release-candidate stage.

 

Security Center looking good from here.

 

Great

 

Hiya, running latest beta and does not display in security centre. Shows Avira and Defender only. Have disabled Defender and then security centre only shows Avira.

 

Of anything in Windows, the Security Center is probably the least organized and most susceptible to problems. I have Edge running on every computer I have (granted, as the only AV) and it works fine. I've seen it working alongside other AVs fine in the security center across a wide range of test machines in-house as well but I don't think the Security Center was designed initially for multiple apps to be registered in and report properly so that's probably why there is so much trouble with it.

I'm not sure we're going to be able to do anything about it not being reported alongside other AVs if it is actually not working properly...

Security Center =

 

Why on earth would you use Avira with Prevx. You dont need it. Heck, Edge will clean it before Avira.

Remember, when it comes to actual cleaning, Eset version 4, Kaspersky, and now Edge. Thats it.

 

And until today, I had never even looked at Security Center in my Vista.

 

All that matters is that Prevx Edge is Running and Protecting I'm very happy with Prevx Edge

TH

 

I'm happy with just the other programs in Security Center. All I need from Prevx is the green winkie. And even at my age I can still see it.

 

Ok, whatever makes you happy.

 

i do think this one is false.
From my log.

denis: FPs corrected Thank you!

 

What does it mean when the "green" eye turns "black" in the tray? Had this happen yesterday, but on reboot it was green again. Explanation?

 

Joe,
I am now running beta 3.0.1.1, the best so far, very smooth.
However.
With the release version 3.0.0.199 up to and including 248 beta the 'Scan Now' operation and boot up scan were scanning 5,000 > 6,000 files in less than 30 secs on average. I now find with 3.0.1.1 the same scan operation has just scanned 17,000+ files in 1min 37 secs. This morning it was just under 15,000 and each scan I have done has increased by 500 or so files.
Is this to be expected? Is this new beta designed to do a more comprehensive scan or do I have a problem

 

The scan is dependent on a high number of factors - it hasn't changed at all within the last dozen builds or so, but it is more intensive over 199. Essentially, it probably found something "interesting" or marginally suspicious in your system so it stopped trusting your system and started scanning more areas

 

This could happen because of Windows Explorer closing down and restarting or the status changing to 'scan required'. It isn't something to worry about, however.

 

All I have running that I didn't have running before is the latest beta of Online Armor 3.1.0.20. I also have sandboxie running but that has been on for a while so I guess it must be OA. If I uninstall / reinstall OA when the release version comes out I'll run a scan when I have nothing else on board.

 

I would second trjam on this. I realise why we cannot have the old Prevex 2 tray icon but how about making the green centre 'eye' of the icon grey and the grey outside ring green. ie: just change the colours over within the same icon. If that could be done then how about making the outside ring that would be green flash when it turns red like the red traffic light did with Prevx 2 when there was problem. Caught you eye (no pun intended) immediately.

 

Personally think the icon is perfect right now, better yet 1 of the best ones out there n ppl glasses do wonders trust me

 

We're always looking to improve any minor thing and I'm waiting on a response from the graphic team to see what they could do with it

 

Is the beta invite only?

 

Well we've never turned anyone down However, the beta is now essentially redundant as it is released as the current version on the website (3.0.1.2)

 

On the site it says x64 isn't supported. But on this thread I see lots of people using the x64 version. I'm looking specifically for that one
