Sounds like made for a TV commercial. A hearty no thank you

 

[Dave Russo]

Kind of old news,use to have lots of commercials for it,prayed on uninformed,scare tactics,50 dollars a year for 5 computers,claims to use white list and a American product, though founder seems ,as said by others, used car dealer seller of antivirus program, I really doubt anyone familiar with MalwareTips would go for it!

Simply put no way ever.

You should already know. Research PC Matic online. It's pointless to ask about it on MT.

No support listed for Windows 10 or 8.1.

But it does support XP, Vista, 7 and 8, which are mostly unsupported or soon-to-be dropped by Microsoft.

Uh-hmmm... you got that right.

 

[Amelith Nargothrond]

Totally trustworthy

 

[jamescv7]

PC-Matic is already known to be a questionable product, hence the integrity has already exposed.

@Amelith Nargothrond: It seems as I visited the website, the HTTPS is went active.

You can see the identical characteristics between a scam and an original one of product advertising.

Sorry but the software is a hunk of cr**. Not to mention the guy looks creepy with his beady little eyes.
Haha..From your link, one of their reps was bragging about their results at AV-Comparitives:
https://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/avc_sp_pcpitstop_201702_en.pdf
where it had 805 FPs. Are you kidding me!?! This has got to be some kind of joke. Yes such advanced next generation "white-listing" technology with no actual malware analysis..i.e. signatures, heuristics, or behavior blocking.

I wonder does the free version include the white listing protection or is this only available in the paid version ?
