[QUOTE="plat, post: 930657, member: 74969"] Well, concerning the "memory use optimization" setting Emsisoft has, this is cosmetic only? Or I'm missing some crucial understanding about this feature? I would want to know the resource consumption of various software and not stash it away so that I feel better about looking in Task Manager or whatever. Good thing Emsi does this by opting in. I recall another antivirus that was doing this as a default--I believe it was Webroot. Not sure if it's doing actual memory use hiding this way still but I found this a rather questionable practice at the time. Sneaky, kind of. [/QUOTE]
