Hopefully Kaspersky and ESET don't get absorbed by anyone. I wouldn't be upset if they merged with each other, though.
BullGuard has joined Avira as part of NortonLifeLock

Explode in a good or bad way? If it kept them from being absorbed from some of the mainstream contenders then I think it would be worth the sacrifice.
But, I guess some people don't trust Kaspersky, but I haven't seen any proof of foul play...

No one seems to have told ESET about a shrinking market - UK site - 1 user 1 year $39.99 UK Pounds or equivalent $54:91 US Dollar
In my country it costs 5 dollars now and I bought two years of Kaspersky Internet Security for 3 dollars (retail).

Is that from an ESET retailer? ESET is about the only AV here you can't buy licences from Ebay, you can but they don't last long - I digress from thread here

So its Bullguards own technologies + Avira engine?
Certainly sounds like it would offer great protection, can't say ive ever even looked into BullGuard before, maybe I'll trial it

if they make a hybrid of Sonar+Avira+Bullguard proactive, it would be a quite powerful product

Hope they get rid of the dog in the taskbar, it's the main reason I dislike it, apart from the entire UI that is & lack of protection

I might be totally off here, but I always assumed it was more about buying the competitions market share, more than their technology, at least in the case of AV software.

I'm now a Mac user, so in my experience - most of these solutions seem to seriously strip out the features they usually offer.
What's good on Windows, isnt technically the same for me now

You are totally right, that is mainly the reason.

AVG now has AVAST technology. As far as I know AVAST also integrated some AVG technology.
Offer enough and you could buy even Microsoft or Google...

Looks just like Real-time & on-demand only for Mac.I'm now a Mac user, so in my experience - most of these solutions seem to seriously strip out the features they usually offer.

I don't see:
Firewall
Game booster
secure browser
vulnerability checker
or parental control
This is the problem when I see reviews for security, the experiences are usually vastly different to their macOS counterpart lol

BullGuard has now taken so long on its first scan that it's just froze the time elapsed counter LOL
I think I already know, this isn't the solution for me on macOS.
Sadly this follows the trend, 99% are made 'purely' for windows with their macOS solutions being basically an add-on
people must realise they charge the SAME PRICE to protect a different OS, so to me, BullGuard isn't worth it for a macOS user.
