I believe you misunderstood me. I never said updates would decrease performance at all.

Updates are required for a reason. Skipping them is not an ideal approach.

I get it. I get it. :P
Thanks :D
 
RE: abhi95sinha's Config - Need a good AV

If you're using a modern OS on old hardware, you may want to consider upgrading components or buying a new PC/laptop.

1). No, Windows Updates doesn't slows down the PC.

2). Windows Updates automatically install the updates, so I don't have to.

How many of you think that using windows update slows down the PC.
How many of you out there install windows update. ?? :)

I have a fairly good PC. Thanks for the help. Btw, Earth, I noticed you are using BD AV. How is the memory consumption? BDTS memory consumption on my laptop is nearly 60MB.
 
Yes, I am using Bitdefender Antivirus Plus 2013 and for a good reason, it doesn't include the extra crap that "Total Security" has.
Only 4 tabs/modules:
- Antivirus
- Update
- Privacy
- Safego

During the Idle period, memory usage is at it's lowest point.

OK. I think I'll try IS.
Btw, your memory consumption is quite low. :D
Did you apply any tweaks to it and have you tried Win 8 yet ??
 
The website shows incorrect information, the File Shredder is available in the Antivirus Plus version too. The Internet Security you get the 2-way Firewall, Anti-Spam and Enhanced Parental Controls, but only if you need those, otherwise AV + Windows Firewall is enough.

I only changed > Active Virus Control to Aggressive, in the AV Settings, but not encountered any FPs, and using Auto-Pilot mode.

What about the Intrusion Detection System. Is it turned on?? I think that it's related to Active Virus Control

Btw, I'm using IS just to check how well their firewall performs. Other offerings in IS suite is useless to me. :D
 
Hey Guys, I heard from BD technical Assistant that BD and MBAM (even when it acts as on demand scanner) are not compatible with each other when I contacted him about the non-visibility of BD scan options in context menu.
Is there a way to make them run without having them conflict with each other?
 
BD want to remove any rivals :D

1- uninstall MBAM
2- install BD
3- install MBAM
4- set the exclusions

Thought the Same. Thanks :)
Btw, BD uses up a lot of network.
And 1 more thing. Emsisoft uses BD engine. So why not directly use BD. Can you tell me the reason behind using EAM??
 
lighter, secondary emsisoft own engine, cloud-based Mamutu BB, HOST blocker (where i can add my own lists), interaction with OAP, reactive support and interaction with the developers, 2680 days of subscription left :D

Thinking of trying EAM 7. But BD 2013 is way faster (lighter) than it's predecessors
 
Calling all EAM 7 users.

Guys, I'm getting this high memory usage + it shows EAM 6.6
PLZ HELP!!!:(

im on win7 so i can't help.

how much memory usage do you get especially during scans and applications startup.
EAM should have the same usage in win 8 too, right? :(
