    2.faster than the older verions and much improved from the previous version
    3.has all the neccesary shields and some extra ones(p2p shield....)
    4.webreputation much much improved
    5.less resource usage
    6.script shield work great for chrome for all those who say that the script shield is not integrated into chrome

    Cons

    no problems at all if you go through the setup slowly and carefully and if you set it up in a good way and not mess with the settings if you dont khnow what your'e doing.
    i noticed that DANNY101 complained of the chrome browser, well he didn't go through the setup carefully, where he couldv'e simply unchecked the chrome box when he doubleclicked on the setup to tun it!! i have not passed by the lck pc up thingi and the crash thing on both my 8 gb ram laptops and 12 gb ram desktops.

    Summary

    it's really good if you know how to set it up and it can really protect you pc's and desktop's.
