Dear beta-testers, the company Doctor Web, Ltd. is pleased to announce the first public beta antivirus Dr.web Security Space Pro 7.0. This product is based on the new architecture and has many differences from the current version.
Major changes:
1. Appeared a service that manages all antivirus (DrWeb Control Service), settings, statistics, self-defense, keys, remote control, parental control, etc.
2. Storing the settings completely transferred to the registry. INI-file no longer exists.
3. Configuration interface components are now fully implemented in the agent (before each component had its own module configuration)
4. The new service (Net Filter) check traffic (http and mail) and return SpiderGate SpiderMail, modules are no longer needed.
5. On modern operating systems starting with Windows Vista and later used the new driver to intercept traffic.
6. New Updater, which uses a new mechanism to update the antivirus;
7. Functional license is now an agent.
8. There is a new possibility - remote control and antivirus setting within sight of the network. Ie if our homes are installed antivirus software on multiple computers in a network, with any of the computers can connect to the other (knowing the password) and run it (to get statistics, read and modify the module configuration, enable or disable them ...)
9. The new driver firewall.
10. The new scanner.
