Battle 360 IS vs avast! Free vs 360 TS

[MrExplorer]

Which has the best Zero-Day Protection.

 

[Oxygen]

Total security has 5 engines so it would be the best.

360 IS for me. 360 TS is still in beta version. There still a lot of bugs so I don't recommend to use it, for now. For avast! Free, well, I'll not use it again. lol

 

[MrExplorer]

avast has lot of advertisement for upgradation, which i don't like at all.

Not used it myself but feel 360 TS would be better among the three.

360 IS for me for now. It catches a lot of junk. Avast is better at PUP detection IMO though. 360 found malware in adwcleaner & junkware removal tool & other downloads from major download sites. It seems that I only get malware from trusted sites & have quit downloading stuff. I guess times are rough & everyone wants to bundle their free program with junkware nowadays. When 360 TS gets out of Beta I might try it. 360 IS appears to be doing a great job for now catching phishing...dangerous URLs etc...

 

[MrExplorer]

Giving a try to 360 IS, Until now what is noticed is that its web blocking is not that much good.

I think you will like 360. It is light on system resources. I would only download it from 360 safe com as you don't want it to come bundled with other things. Once installed it seems very intensive for awhile as its probably checking everything on your computer. I had Mcafee for awhile & even it failed to block a bad site. I guess nothing is 100% secure anymore.

I would prefer to wait for 360 TS to become more stable, and though I've not used IS 360 (yet) I would consider trying it based on both user reviews http://www.softpedia.com/progViewOpinions/360-Internet-Security-237034,.html and, of course, marg's comments!

Thank you! I don't know how accurate they are but, AV-Test org appears to have accurate tests on many AV programs. I disagree on a few of them. Youtube has a lot of interesting info on AV's as well. 360's QVM 2 caught a couple nastys a while back so, all in all I am happy with it so far. In the past I have tried Avast,G data,Mcafee,Avira & Webroot. They all have not caught anymore than 360 IMO.

Hello everyone!

Avast! isn't too bad but I know those ads to upgrade can bore people

As for Qihoo, I've heard some bad case of backdoor within their products, and now I still have difficulties to trust them.

To sum it up, I vote for no one

360 IS !

Lol .. No Backdoor in the Qihoo products...

 

[PlayerFromTheITtic]

Actually, I changed my mind, I'll vote Avast!, at least we're positively sure that it doesn't install some backdoor things ;P

Even if now Qihoo would have stopped injecting backdoors, there's nothing to guarantee that they wouldn't do so again!

 

[Manzai]

LOL

 

[PlayerFromTheITtic]

Two weeks ago, Tiranium wasn't accused of stealing another's engine...

But Ok, if you like to be fooled, let's wait for them to reinject backdoors, it'll be fun

 

[Manzai]

It is necessary to stop with the statements of 2011, Qihoo has no backdoor.

Qihoo is safe, this is a Antivirus, no a RAT xD

 

[PlayerFromTheITtic]

Just try to read what I say for once
I said RIGHT NOW, there isn't any backdoor in Qihoo, but they could have the idea in the near future to reinject them again when no one will be suspicious toward them! ^^

 

[Striker]

For me its avast. if u tweek it right than its just strong with hardernmode. And the little pupops, common, just first world problem. I realy dont get it why ppl get so mad when they can click it away in 1 second. And i dont believe that qihoo ever had some backdoors. A source would be nice.

Actually, you can easily find the source you're looking for, just type "Qihoo backdoor" in your search engine, you should be able to find it ^^
