We've got a server running server NAV and then the clients all connect to it. On the client side, it's pretty few resources, and it doesn't even have an icon in system tray, so you don't really know it's even there. I suppose it has done a decent job. We did sell Norton for a while, but based on how often we have to fix it, and seen all the problems it develops, Panda's two or three issues pale in comparrison to Nortons. And while my opinion of McAfee is not very high, I can't ignore that in most all my experience, I have rarely ever had a system with serious McAfee problems.
I just don't like it because of various program quirks. Such as having to log in to the web site to get updates. Or it not telling you when the subscription expires. And I don't like the interface. Just dumb things like that. The Panda Titanium is the one we were going to sell, as just an Antivirus tool. But it seems odd that the Platinum version does a better job of catching viruses, I would think they both use the same engine and pattern files? I am using Panda Platinum at home for the last year and I've been very happy with it, it hasn't ever said low protection level, or blocked Internet access.
I suppose I just got lucky there. I've been happy with the firewall as well. I'm behind a hardware firewall which I have maybe 8 ports open for various services I'm running; but Panda always catches other things like scripts trying to run and what not. I'm happy with that as well, the program is small and unobtrusive, it always seems to just "work". So I don't think it is quite as powerful as the others.
I am most interrested in Kaspersky at this point. I've downloaded the Betas for AV and IS and am waiting for an oportunity to install them and see how it looks. But RBS, you said it doesn't give "program" updates, only defs? On their site, they had a news article about the "magic byte" exploit.
They said a patch was being tested and will install through their normal updates function. So they obviously have a way to do program updates if necessary. Anyhoo, keep them thoughts coming! You misread my post. It said Extendia does not give program-updates, only defs. Unfortunately there are no program-updates At least that's how I first read it. Okay, well that takes Extendia off the list. Leaving Kaspersky and F-Secure. I was looking it over and seeing all the functions and what not.
It worked good at first, I got to see its popups about various programs trying to access the Internet, and how deep you can control them. The interface is very clean and easy to get around in.
But it wouldn't update, I tried like 10 times over about 15 minutes. But then some time later it must have auto updated and wanted to restart. So I restarted. Upon bootup, it came right up saying I needed to restart because of updates. So okay, I restarted again. And it was then up to date. So I think it's pretty nice, but a few of their messages and some of their internal linking could use work. Also their word use was a tad confusing, but not the end of the world.
So then all of a sudden, I couldn't get online. I tried IE, ping, ipconfig, it just wouldn't do anything. I checked the rules for my network and it was set to allow everything. It was weird because my game server was still up and running online.
So I have to see why it stopped my access for no reason. But hey, if it really does have this high of detection rates, a good strong scanner, good ability to clean and delete what it finds, mixed with the nice interface, I think it could be a winner. Though I've yet to see how much resources it's using. As for NOD32, I did attempt to use it, years and years ago, and it caused all havoc on my system, leaving a bad taste in my mouth. But I haven't tried any newer versions. That was back when they were free.
Or are they still free? I'll have to look into them as well, I know a lot of people swear by them. We have just ordered a batch of Panda Platinum as well. So now I can compare that with Kaspersky and see who wins. Panda could learn something there. I also use norton corporate.
As a client program it does put a small icon in the taskbar- a shield It's caught a few things over the year. In other words, Extendia uses 'old' technology with the latest AV-definitions. Currently they implement the status of the AV engines. Hmm, that is sort of interresting, and weird, that they just use the other scan engines. Why wouldn't someone just buy the other programs directly? Oh well. I'd rather get the real deal. Still trying Panda and Kaspersky 6 Beta Avast antivirus is a great product.
It's free for home users. Web is quite good too. It is almost invisible and I have never had any problems with it! So far I am liking Kaspersky. However it considerably slows down the PC while doing a full scan, so I'd recommend only doing during the night. Keep in mind that Panda has the firewall so it has those extras that K doesn't. Panda: Pavproxy. Likely services. Kaspersky as of looking just now: avp. As I watched the 2nd one, it got as low as 3,k and jumped up to 11,k as it did stuff, then dropped down again.
I could see the system tray icon go active when the process grew in size, so it must be the background scan. I'm liking it. I have not compared this, yet, to the Panda Platinum So it does have some spyware definitions in its database. Just not a full service. I'll keep updating this thread will details as I get them. Thanks in advance for any help. Look this log - having problems with begin2search toolbar Logfile of HijackThis v1. The green-marked highlights, do they appear on TechSpot's website or elsewhere where?
Thanks The links did appear on every site with the words "computer" "virus" "software" etc. Azazel said:. I would suggest that you read the following thread by RBS. It will show you how to get rid of spyware adware etc. Sorry to say but so often it just makes me laugh how dumb people can be. They install all software which comes up with an advertisement just because they think its good.
Offcourse never read the License agreement on such software and when youre done whine on some forum howto remove your spyware Look and Think before you act just like you would do in real life i assume. Its quite logical that free software contains spyware, they need to make money out of something.
