    "It's a suppliment my other antivirus program!...Great!"

    March 1, 2012  |   By ScreamingMetal

    Pros

    It works, PERIOD. I don't like the way it looks, to brightly cheerfully colored...looks aren't everything, but it works. It kinda heavy on resources and is slow on loading, but its find rate is up there, and when you have something try to slip by and get in, it alerts you fast.
    It works....and its dependable! And its FREE!

    Cons

    I hate the way it looks, it loads slow, and isn't graceful about taking resources....

    Summary

    I would say to anyone that needs a good solid backup AV, this is it! Its performance can't be beat, neither can its price!
    Yes, its a ugly interface, and its a pig on loading time, and takes some resources to run, Hey, It WORKS! And THAT is what its all about!!!!!
    IF THIS THING HAD ANVI'S LOOKS, I'D THINK ITS THE BEST!

    Updated on Mar 15, 2012

    Its been a couple of months, its still clogging right along! Yes, its not a true AV, its a malware detector....its still ugly, its still on my computer and its still working!
    I load and unload software all the time, testing it, It doesn't give anything a chance to change anything! I KNOW I CAN DEPEND ON IT!
