[QUOTE="MDTechVideos, post: 375756, member: 2049"] I have been specifically requested multiple times to test 360 with both engines enabled. I do not think of this as a "lack of understand" of how the product performs more than a demonstration of how innocent this huge discretionary appears to me (if Bitdefender and Avira are being shown as turned on I truly believe many people would think they are being protected by those engines in real time). Also I was not too impressed that no malware was blocked by 360 (during the actual execution of the malware samples). All that was blocked were "unrecognized programs" which could be just about anything. One or two is okay but when the entire test is filled with alerts like this it would give someone the impression that 360 is built around a whitelist. Nothing is wrong with a whitelist but when this is the main line of defense you are asking for problems down the road. The preceding was my opinion and as I always say, take from it as you wish. :) [/QUOTE]
