[BETA] 360 Total Security 6.0.0.1099 Review

Product name
360 Total Security 6.0.0.1099
Pros
  • Computer way faster;
    Detection is outstanding;
    Good tools (if you like to boost your PC);
    2 more engines if you select (Protection Mode: Security);
    Cloud engine works good with QVM (default protection);
    Malware removal is very good;
    You can select the theme you like.
CONS
High resources when using all engines.
QVM has FP (but the detection of QVM is amazing).
BOTTOM LINE
They made this version faster, better protection, more updates (fast updates). If FP are not an issue for you, this is the product for you.

Since this is a beta, I use Avast Free because I wanna see the final version. Qihoo does amazing products and I think this free product (the Internet Security also) are the best product you can get. If you don't wanna buy, I recommend this.

I will give it 5 start because it is a beta, I hope they will make the memory usage more friendly (this beta it uses less then the stable version, it is an improvement but I wanna see more optimization).

About the FP from QVM, I work in computer security and I know how hard is to make a Heuristic engine that has high detection but few FP. It is impossible to make amazing 0 Day detection with no FP, this is the downside of heuristics.

Dual 2.5 with 4 GB Ram, OS is Windows 7 (32 bit) no SP or updates.

Average resource usage:
Idle: 100 - 112 MB
update: ~200MB
scan: 180-200MB
Note: I can't feel it on my system, I know it uses above average.


The lowest idle was 80.
My system boot is between 8-10 seconds (really fast). With version 5 was 20 - 24 seconds (fast).

Thanks @OpenSecLabs for your excelent review.another colleague who does a great job with revisions.

I think the perfect antivirus does not exist, but in the meantime we have Qihoo .
I admit , I'm a fan of this antivirus , but I think it not worth paying for an antivirus that will not be much better than this which is also free.
False Positives?, there are not so many, I'd rather have the doubt on occasion and get a second opinion , that continued certainty that could be better protected , but that's just my opinion

360 Total security is improved, but it provides unnecessary tools that eat your memory up. System speed, system clean bla bla bla junk.
I believe that Internet security version is much better as it provides only security, and doesn't consume too much memory (30 - 40MB WITH bitdefender enabled).
Instead of ''uninstalling engines'' it is better for Qihoo team to leave the engines as it is and add an option for the user to install these system tools only if HE/SHE likes.

we all agree with that and waiting for the release of 360IS version 5. ts is bundle with many unneeded tools.

I am happy to see that you guys like the way I see this product. I will try to make more reviews.

I wish Qihoo will add to IS the Upload Unknown Files and other options from Total Security.
