[QUOTE="Andrezj, post: 1017461, member: 97580"] this is true of all security software the application and use is always different than the marketing message or the interpretation of the marketing message in both subjective and objective ways people routinely apply incorrect preconceived notions and expectation to marketing "you are protected" is just a permissible, widely used generic marketing slogan as it does not mean "you are absolutely and perfectly protected", though many people would expect that it does mean the second quote the limitations of any kind of security software alert is well established by credible research and studies when a user has to make a decision, the outcome depends mostly upon that user's knowledge, as research has proven that common sense and warnings are either no applied or just ignored by users at a significant level removing the human risk from security is done primarily through automation and no alerts, but even in the use of those protection models the human sitting in front of the computer is going to ultimately have to make decisions under most any use case it is not a matter if the user has to make a decision, it is a matter of when it is for this reason that in enterprise who choose or are regulated and must apply high level security, taking away and preventing users from 1) doing stuff like home users and 2) having to make decisions is a basic control [/QUOTE]
