Advice Request A few questions about 360 TS

[Antimalware18]

Just switched from avast + sandboxie to a 360 TS + Comodo firewall combo
was just wondering does anyone still use this product?
also, does this product auto update the bitdefender and avira engines? and if so how often? and when?

qihoo will update virus database once a day.
This combination is very good for free.

You should change your avatar
How about an avatar, with a ... penguin ?

Edited;
It had sense when the OP avatar was still AVAST logo

you will get the bitdefender definitions a day or two later than actual bitdefender users. This might be true also of Avira, but it is harder to tell.

Mainly I was wondering about auto-update. I sat on the computer for around 2 hours this morning and it did not auto update. Then i ran a manual one and avira engine had a update. wondering if thats a flaw in my installation or if thats just how this product is and if it hampers detection rates...

I use Qihoo since the first public version of Internet Security. The signatures are updated twice a day for both engines (you need to let the product update by itself don't worry if it did't update that day you installed the product).

If you wanna use it with Comodo you should install the TSE version

Why do you need Sandboxie and Qihoo? you already have "Comodo firewall" which has sandbox.
Use proactive configuration in settings and no need for an AV nor updates.
Use your browsers in Comodo sandbox, just click on the browser icon on Comodo desktop widget

Edit: You have Windows 10 (*) You can use Windows defender for you realtime AV need

East or West Qihoo is the best

i have paired Qihoo and Kaspersky which should be more than enough to tackle anything out there.

hi, pair Qihoo and Kaspersky in the same OS don't considerably reduces your computer performance?

 

[viktik]

Qihoo has the capability to exist with other security software. So no problem pairing it with other security software.

it won't crash. Files are accessed by one of the two security software. If it clears it as safe then it is accessed by second security software. If second security software also sees it as safe then it is allowed to run.

Yes. I still use it. I am using Q360TSE + Comodo firewall + autosandbox. Yes. It will auto update. You have to leave it for a while. I usually restart my computer and go about my own way.

As long as you are connected to the internet, Qihoo's cloud is pretty good.

If you wanna use it with Comodo you should install the TSE version

why is TSE better with Comodo?
And isn't there a problem with TSE receiving delayed program updates ?

 

[Ramona]

Because of the Comodo's auto-sandbox and you will also have the firewall.

TSE has only a few weeks delay in program updates. The protection is the same

 

[shmu26]

Because of the Comodo's auto-sandbox and you will also have the firewall.

do you mean that some element in 360TS conflicts with comodo auto-sandbox and firewall?
or do you mean that because you have comodo auto-sandbox and firewall, thereby you don't need some element in 360TS?

 

[Ramona]

No, I'm saying you can use both of them

 

[shmu26]

I am still trying to understand why people recommend the TSE version if you intend to combo it with COMODO

TSE is just the AV, you don't have the other stuff that you don't really need.

Doesn't Qihoo include a Sandbox? How effective is it compared to SBIE and Comodo Sandbox?

Qihoo 360 TS(E) actually has a sandbox (to be found in the "tools" section, but last time I tested it had to be used manually and did not support all file formats.
I'd use Comodo Firewall (free) instead, it can be set to auto-sandbox, being backed up by both HIPS and VirusScope if turned on, and judging from my log on my main PC, it does guard the system quite well. However, I'm new to CF, maybe there are some Comodo experts out there?
