Version: Vipre Antivirus + Antispyware 3.1.2416
"Ineffective..Bleepingcomputer and Malwarebytes fixed it"
Pros: Quick response on telephone calls to Tech Support. American (easy to understand) tech support.
Cons: Ineffective. Finally I gave up and went to Bleepingcomputer.com. They told me how to stop the problem processes and told me to download and use Malwarebytes. Downloaded free. FIXED ALL PROBLEMS...I bought it!
Summary: INEFFECTIVE....located no problem files despite serious infections. I had a BAD redirection problem and "Total Security" malware which pretty much crippled my nice new Samsung netbook. I read good review in CNET and downloaded Counterspy. Tech then told me that Counterspy could not repair my problem...I really needed to upgrade to VIPRE. So I did. It scanned....NOTHING FOUND although my computer was totally screwed up. Two days of tech calls and scans with other company's products. Finally I gave up and went to Bleepingcomputer.com and Malwarebytes. Downloaded free. FIXED ALL PROBLEMS...I bought it!
