[QUOTE="Parsh, post: 584269, member: 58090"] Kaspersky had that space in my Desktop in the very beginning. [I]Browsing torrents -[/I] it did all the advanced disinfection after-work [I]Games from friends' USB drives -[/I] it did the cleaning of 1000s of malware Once, it wiped clean my partner's USB, just before he was gonna make the presentation for the Graduation ceremony! But after a year, I choose to go for the tempting freeware. Used 360 TS for a few months but left it because of the False Positives. [B] Here's the story -[/B] The last freeware setup was Avira+Comodo Firewall+MBAE. Once I noticed a suspicious account named [I]'wpnccnngcse' [/I]that[I] [/I]used to get activated on my PC alongside my admin account. Everytime I deleted it, it came back! [I]That horror when you have an unidentified account on your PC again & again, and I still remember that weird account name :-/[/I] Also, there were some anomalies while granting rights too. Disc usage abnormally high and no suspicious registries detected. Once I tried entering that account out of curiosity, it turned to a black screen and a strange logo at the bottom. Wiped clean my PC then. My new lappy is leading a happy life with KIS + Crystal Security + MCShield + MBAE and sandboxie, accompanied with some good 2nd opinion toys :-D [/QUOTE]
