It then directed me to click a link to get more information. It recommended that I change the “connection mode” to something more secure since mine was automatic. Panda liked my level of authentication and encryption, network name, and ad hoc network security. My home router popped up as “medium security,” for example, with a helpful checklist about what was going on. The most interesting feature of Wi-Fi Protection is its near-immediate auditing of the security level for your router. Panda Dome Complete can assess your router’s security. A number of other suites include a feature like this, but we’re not entirely convinced it’s necessary as most updates to Windows and apps are automated anyway. Panda has also added an update manager that searches for updates to your apps and Windows itself. Going back to the primary interface, the Antivirus icon is where you can see information about your latest scan, quarantined files, and scheduled scans. The last two options are self-explanatory, while Critical areas scans memory, running processes, browser cookies, and other data for malware. The first icon in the dashboard is Scan. Click that and a smaller window opens up with three options: Critical areas, Full scan, and Custom scan. If a feature is active there’s an “ON” badge in the upper-right corner of its icon. In Panda Dome Complete, all of the main features are listed in a single scrolling list of iOS app-like icons. Since then I spent many hours educating myself about viruses,trojans etc.Earlier versions of Panda, such as Panda Gold Protection, tried to cram a lot of features into a tiled interface with multiple pages. Many years ago,when I got my pc,shortly after internet gave to my pc an virus.While my pc was at repair shop,I felt like an family member is sick. Of course,Qihoo is not the only layer of protection on my pc. Immediately after installation,Qihoo found 5 software patches and installed it.And Qihoo continues to do the same,update self automatically,has Avira and Bitdefender antivirus engines incorporated.Also,today I was very pleased ,cos Qihoo alerted me to possible trojan,and offered suspicious site be checked with virus total!! I accepted and within 3 seconds,trojan was detected and removed!! Next,I found Qihoo ranked very high on AV tests and few other similar sites.To my pleasant surprise,Qihoo is free and gives total or premium protection!!There is no paid upgrade!!You get the best version for free !!Isn't that nice and refreshing,after seeing how everybody try to sell better protection.īest of all,Qihoo doesn't ask for registration.Meaning,unlike Avast, Panda and about everybody else,Qihoo doesn't ask for your email,and later doesn't sell emails to third parties!! Then I spent about 5-6 hours searching for best antivirus.The biggest help I found right here,on this site.Very good forum indeed.It turned out that Qihoo is big thing in China,with about half a billion users!! Tried Kaspersky for trial.An trojan slipped by Kaspersky.Uninstalled. Tried Bitdefender.I don't like black presentation.Very aggressive in asking money.Uninstalled. Tried Microsoft Security Essentials.It is a joke.Uninstalled. Then I installed Panda.It severely slowed down my pc.Unninstalled Panda. I had Avast for 4 years without any trouble.But,slowly,they became more and more aggressive about upgrading,registering.Shortly after registration,I've noticed number of spam messages increased to my email.This is quite simple math.Avast asks for your email,and shortly after spam messages number increases.The last drop about Avast was their latest update.The damn thing crashed my pc 7-seven-times after my attempts to find out what was the reason.Finally,I uninstalled Avast and my pc seems ok.
