steve1955, thank you. Many people guess that any AV has to be excellent immediately.

 

Yes, we develop all our signatures. We have own analytical virus laboratory.
As for the system guard, we test it before a release of any new version. If then some errors occur we fix them immediately.

 

Yes, you can use a command line. You can find list of keys in the documentation on our site or in the help file.

 

Waaaay too much in my opinion. I hope they are working to cut this at least in half.

Thanks for the update. When are you thinking of releasing the stable build?

 

Any plans for an English forum?

 

There is a english forum
http://www.nanoav.ru/forum/viewforum.php?f=12&sid=d9ba1804a7b36525afa7cddbd814d1ff

 

Ah thanks when I hit to the forums everything was in Russian and I could not find anything.

 

Is it just me or isn't their logo very similar to the Xbox logo (only a side of it got moved a bit)?

Anyways, seems like this product is actively being developed, will give this a spin once I've setup my VMs again.

 

You can change the forum language using combo box in the top right corner of the forum as I show here:

 

Glad to see its the proper version of English:-the original "British" one! lol

4. Fixed a number of errors of update process.

Sorry for the delay as I haven't took notice to your question. The date of release wasn't set yet, but we hope it will be in the next year. Therewith I would like to notice that current version is quite stable.

 

That seems to be a bit of a dig at them?Kaspersky have been around for years and I'm not sure whether they have released a stable version of their 2011 products yet!

 

Last time I installed it (latest version) I could not complete the update. It took a lot of time but didn't complete.

 

I tried to install it, using Shadow Defender. Despite several tries, I was never able to get past the screen shown below -- even after waiting >15 minutes.



Ergo, I still do not know if Nano needs a reboot during installation. Does it?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am following Nano's progress with great interest. I am very interested in learning more about Nano's effectiveness on zero-day stuff based on its heuristics, emulation, etc. (I wonder if it includes a behavior blocker?)

I am less interested in the scope of its signatures. In fact, I hope they plan to go cloud-based.

 

Could I ask you to send the logs?
Please use "Start->All programs->NANO AntiVirus->Send logs to the support service". Please describe the problem shortly. If you can't send logs with our utility, save them and send the file to support@nanoav.ru. Please describe the problem shortly.
Thank you very much in advance!
