Advice Request Is Vipre IS a BD Clone?

[SearchLight]

Read elsewhere that VIPRE IS uses BD Engine and Signatures.

Is it true that is a rebrand of BD and they still use BD signatures and engine even now?

Appreciate clarification.

They use BD engine but that doesn't makes it a rebrand

Just found a lifetime VIPRE license, maybe worth trying if it contains BD. Vipre IS + OSA or VS might be a good combo. AVC test results don't look bad, either.

Regarding VIPRE lifetime licenses, from what I've read they're limited to a single device and cannot later be reused on another.

Your right license did not work on my PC. Probably when I had my old one. Conceptually, sounded good with BD Engine. I will stick with WD+CWD + VS for now. No bloat, and low resource use.
