[QUOTE="upnorth, post: 892388, member: 38832"] The version in this video is 17.7 and was tested 2 months ago. F-Secure SAFE is since June 11th updated to [URL='https://malwaretips.com/threads/f-secure-17-8-released.101718/']version 17.8.[/URL] Personal I'm more interested in tests on that and extra so as that update was a major one. About it's scan capabilities, I personal can't and wouldn't final judge any vendor from one single test. This video shows the static scan got a 97,4 % detection rate/score. IMO that's not bad and absolutely not bad enough that one would have to jump on another solution just because of that result alone. I strongly advice people to collect more information before install and test products no matter the company/vendor or brand. The dynamic tests was terrible performed IMO. Zero/no overview of outbound connections and no autoruns results. Several samples was also obviously not working and that could easy been tested, before. Something called WMaware could very well been a reason. Great that a reboot was finally made, but I have no idea why use a abandonware as SOS ( second opinion scanner ). Even Nortons Power Eraser is a much better choice for several reasons. [/QUOTE]
