Emsisoft feedback thread

whilst Kaspersky focuses more on selling and less on sponsorship

Well in my country is a giveaway of Kaspersky twice a year. Last giveaway was in the german magazine "Chip". (Ein Jahr Schutz vom Testsieger: Security-Vollversion von Kaspersky als Zugabe zum CHIP-E-Paper)
This licence was for 3 computers.

More detailed information in BB, what specific actions were done by program X. (I want to see modified registry keys, altered settings, accesed files etc.)

im agree .

Malware reviews by Umbra inside malware analysis is my dream, I know he is busy, but in future... Who knows...

It's true. Put a HIPS alert packed with infos in front of a typical user. They don't know what any of it means.

That would be me so as a typical user it would scare the life out of me if i was faced a whole bunch of data that i couldn't comprehend, i know i speak for the minority on here though but again as a typical user, when i am looking at security software, i look for the whole package, i.e - with a firewall included as i don't feel confident enough in sorting that out myself and i guess a lot of "typical users" are the same as me so i guess we can't please all of the people all of the time. To be fair, i had never even heard of Emsisoft until i came across this site so maybe a more aggressive marketing strategy by Emsisoft would be good, widen their target areas.

Good one, @XhenEd

I agree.

Maybe implement interactive and smart (automatic) mode for Behaviour Blocker?

You mean auto-resolve mode?

Interactive would be "Alert" mode.
Smart (automatic) would be "Auto-resolve" mode.

I think the Emsisoft interface could be smaller and rounded a bit on the edges, it would look more modern.

An area where Emsisoft could improve would be in the signatures update. Sometimes updates are really big, especially if your Pc was not turned on for several days. Perhaps integrating some of the definitions in the cloud and the more prevalent threats definitions could be downloaded locally.

Other than that i think Emsisoft is on the right track. Exclusively focused on protection against malwares and hacking, and Firewall removal was an excellent decision

Please, no tune-up stuffs, half baked password managers, 'Secure browsers', browser add-ons and other bloatwares in future releases:notworthy: Keep it as it is, focused on protection and killing malwares.
