[QUOTE="ZeroStrawberries, post: 1114008, member: 86326"] It feels more like marketing material for Kaspersky and BitDefender than being an actual informative video. He even covered Kaspersky's VPN in the video, which I find to be completely irrelevant to whether or not the file he ran could be detected as malicious, or protection from malicious files in general. Sure, is the inclusion of a VPN or an app updater a nice thing? Yes. I don't find them necessary for the video though. To make it more fair, he should have used the basic versions(or even the free versions, since Windows Defender is free) of both Kaspersky and BitDefender instead of the most expensive versions, in order to focus more so on just detection. In addition, I would have liked it more if he also had showed a hardened version of Windows Defender with ConfigureDefender or DefenderUI rather than with just default Windows Defender. [/QUOTE]
