using McAfee instead of Kaspersky engine..
TERRIBLE move. Kaspersky outperforms McAfee in every way possible.

QUOTE(fiqir @ Aug 3 2007, 07:46 PM) so what do u thing about this new AVS .. For those who closely monitor the security industry would have known that there is an internal turmoil in Kaspersky right now between Eugene kaspersky and his ex-wife who is also a major shareholder in the company. It has been reported that there is a power tussle between the 2 and is corporate decisions could be made reflecting that tussle. What a pity..... http://www.webplanet.ru/news/business/2007.../kaspersky.htmlhttp://lenta.ru/news/2007/07/30/kaspersky/ |

But then, worry not, there is still at least free AntiVir.

My AVS still able to updated and woking fine... thanks god.. hehe..
There some extra addtion in mcafee scan plus compare to AVS. AVS just provide viruses protection, while mcafee virus scan provide firewall, spyware protection and viruses protection! I tried to install this new AOL mcafee, but sad... not able to... i think maybe for now it's just for US citizens only, coz when u click "sign up free AOL email" they just listed US country only...

Do i need to remove AOL AVS first? (mine expired at 31/12/2007).
I installed this Version: 6.0.0.308.
Before installing Shinjite's AOL AVS?
After installed it, what is the date displaying?

yeah.. i just installed Shinjite version to another PC. the expired date is the same.
I got failure to update only by yesterday. After kept trying, i managed to update it.
I think i will only install Shinjite if really failure to update for a period.

The Avira free edition usually will have slow FTP transfer rate, but ocassionally I can get 40kB/s.
You may need to rerun the updater a few times just to get into the FTP download queue, but usually it will not take more than 3 tries, otherwise I just try again the next day.
If you consider this as a "problem", then too bad for you.

Lets clear this once and for all. AVIRA AntiVir DOES NOT Use the Kaspersky Engine. Neither does it use its Updating Modules, thus the EXTREME Slow Downs in Updates. Why is it slow? The explanation is simple. If you are downloading almost the whole 1-3MB worth of files, it ought to be slow some how. Thus, For those with high speed connections, refer to these sites to download a full package of the updates. Remember to use a download accelerator or download manager to make the experience more bearable. QUOTE http://dl1.avgate.net/down/vdf/ivdf_fusebundle_nt_en.zip http://dl2.avgate.net/down/vdf/ivdf_fusebundle_nt_en.zipI use the second link more often. Less corruption, less traffic too. The file should come out to be almost 16MB, but rest assured, the traffic there is far less, thus not needing to wait for FTP Line up. Cheers! |

As a matter of fact, I am using AVIRA quite fine.
Another option is NOD32, if you want to save money(apparently), go find the *ahem*s yourself.
Cheers to all!

i'm really doubting avira's performance, sure the detection rates are higher than kaspersky, but on many occasions it failed to properly clean/delete the viruses from my thumbdrive and pc.
Whats the use of detecting when it cannot fix the problem ?

Really? I believe that AVIRA's detection is lower than Kaspersky, even for False Positives.
Clean/Delete viruses? Well, if you know what you are doing, and you know what to do, that shouldn't be a problem.
Though I quite agree with the last sentence.
"Whats the use of detecting when it cannot fix the problem?"
Cheers!

No, that was not the internal affair I meant. It has something to do with s "split' within the company or so. AOL was afraid that AVS will be affected, thus they pulled out Kaspersky's Engine.

Understandable. Just so like Spam, isn't it?
After this, stop using AOL when it expires. AntiVir AVIRA or ESET NO32 will make the mark. (Of course, this refers to other members who are pondering too. I know you gotten yourself a copy of ESET Security Suite RC 1)
