Phantomboxe Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I used ESET product once before. Until i get scam by a Skype scam. i noticed that she want me to pay online using my credit card.

These kind of scams are old as dirt and you can't blame this on a AV this is the end users fault for not blocking the person . I had someone try scam me kind of like this years ago on Yahoo .. they try to tell me that they would make me rich if I would pick up some money for them but they needed my credit card for some strange reason so i blocked it . End of story I think I was using Avast at the time. No Antivirus has ESP and knows if a person you're talking too on chat is a scam or not most of them have a bot that make names. Only IM i use now days is open source encrypted chat you can't talk too me unless you have it too and i give you the OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalju Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 If really want the best and also the cheapest, use this. Works without any kind of crack, patch and registration key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. after our offline chat in skype the bot send me a link to pay me if she want to show her nude photos. Eset should give me a warning if that sites is malicious, even though i know that site is a scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spam is a big problem but never been a problem of mine, other than spamers cause vpn ips too get blacklisted and i have too keep a eye out too make sure my ip is not blacklisted use a ip blacklist database list or some dns that black list ips. if someone you don't know sends you a link if they don't have it no one will. I seen spam on this site before people joined and make up a fake antivirus site and try to sell keys even. all i had too was google the url and i seen it was spam.

I wonder if that is the case for the firewall only too. 2 things i see wrong with this test is 1. there comparing full featured security suites with a firewall against free antivirus programs and the outcome could dramatically change depending on witch firewall you decide too use with a Antivirus . So this test is not fair in this respect ..2.Also the test was only ran on Windows 10 when more than half of windows users still are on windows7.

BALTAGY Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 These tests is funny, Avira and AVG better protection than ESET ?!! BitDefender is better performance than most products?!! Every time i try BitDefender it slow down my system too much and if i want to use VM the system will freeze many times ESET Performance is bad ?!!

HandyPAF Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I vouch for Webroot SecureAnywhere AntiVirus + Windows Firewall Control Preventative steps include using SpywareBlaster and Spybot S&D to "immunize" my PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also had the least number of problems with Webroot. I purchased WFC about a week after its initial release and it was the best $10 I've spent. Very little resource usage, easy to configure, I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franco46 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I used Avast AV + Comodo firewall (free versions) for several years. Now, I only have Comodo firewall (free) + Microsoft defender, so far so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend told me about why his pc is getting ads and slow, and he cant work properly in his laptop. After i scan with Malwarebytes it found out so many adware and viruses. Also Antivirus w/o ad blocker like adblockplus and adguard is weak. this channel is very helpful to me The PC Security Channel [TPSC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeetPirate Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 My ESET license will expire in a couple months but I have decided that I've had enough of ESET and their trash magical unicorn fake protection money making features. Every year they add more magical hogwash like claiming to protect my router and webcam while intercepting my ssl traffic just like a man in the middle virus. I am sure the next version of ESET will protect me from asteroids and safeguard my toaster but they could keep their trash and I will keep my money. It's reassuring that ESET advertises banking and payment protection by breaking ssl. The latest magical unicorn bullshit feature is the ability to encrypt all my photos so that nobody else can see them, how nice of them to fuck-over the file integrity of years of important family photos. Like a naive fool I went for the 2 year license so I am very happy it will soon be done. I will use Kaspersky instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all AVs these days insert their own certificate to safeguard HTTPS, do not they do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyPAF Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I didn't start using security software until 2014 Before that, all I used was my common sense. I didn't download anything unless I trusted the source, I never went to any websites that seemed "sketchy" or otherwise unreliable. I've fixed a lot of computers and almost all of them were infected with some sort of virus or other malware. Here in the States, it seems like most users would get viruses because they were trying to do something illegal (like download music without paying for it) and had no clue how to do it safely. Most of the culprit programs were P2P software and the user would search for something and download the first result without bothering to look at the file size and realize that the "movie" they just pirated is actually a tiny keylogger and not a 700MB+ video file. Other times it wasn't even a virus that was the problem. Instead it was the user's fault because they decided to Google "pc tuneup" or something, download the first thing they see, install it and let the program include all the toolbars and junk, then they actually use the crapware to "purify" their registry or whatever it promises to do. Which obviously causes more issues. Now their computer is running very slowly, there's a bunch of popups, error messages, etc. But not because of a virus, no. Because the user is a fool. If you want the best security setup, heed the advice of the users here on the forum. Listen to their stories and learn from their mistakes. Then go out and try some of the suggested programs, take a look at all the features and options each program has to offer, then decide for yourself. Take into consideration: cost, resource usage, level of protection. Don't overdo it, one real-time antivirus program + one firewall + one antispyware (optional) or combine all of them and get an Internet Security option such as 360 Total Security (just an example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
