    Hi

    Heard about it, not used it, but as mentioned above it doesnt score very well in tests using various malware types, so would not be on my recomend list as a must have AV at this point, likely it will over time become better, but its a legitimate program for security, just not the best or worst around at this time.

    What would be the reason you "got to know about this product"? is it that its the only supplied antivirus you can have or another reason?


    EDIT: forgot I had an account at VirusBulletin, so checked their tests for this year on K7 and out of 3 tests it failed 1 a few months ago so as an AV its patchy in its detection, but as I mentioned this is likely to get better as the application matures.
