    More effective when coupled with a boot-time scan. Amazing feature.

    BB in 5.1 now works (scans and monitors).
    Sandbox is dedicated for banking. Very simply.

    Nag screen supposedly disappeared sometime in October except for occasional pop up about a special offer. I'm told that updates are faster to download but still once a day.
