Make your video test requests!

Cloud you please confirm if that feature is available on K7 Total Security ? K7 Version change require fresh new installation & never notify if new release will be available like Quick Heal ?
K7 usually autoupdates and -upgrades (upgrade is IMO if the version no. changes, update = signatures) as soon as it detects a internet connection, without any notification (actually you will see "update is running" (or some text like that) when you open the GUI while it happens, but usually the update is very fast, it takes longer when the database is older). It seldom requires a reboot after upgrade (version change - it's been v17.0 for a long time, only the last four digits change, currently .2029, it has grown from .2021 within a short time), I cannot tell when I had that last time (reboot). My mothers machine employed K7, while I switched to F-Secure because of the VPN, now with them transforming to an Avira clone (at least it looks so according to the Beta thread here), I'm back at K7 (Infiniti).

As for your question regarding Quick Heal, I brought up the idea it does neither autoupgrade, nor does it tell you a new one is available. I haven't used it for more than one year, but when I employed it, I regularly checked their webpage to see whether new releases are available (you notice it by the release date).
If someone can confirm, I'd be happy to learn about.

Thank you both. I got my answer. Here is their customer care reply through mail:-

We would like to inform you that there is no need to reinstall K7 for version upgrades, as it will automatically update during major updates. We kindly request that you check whether your K7 product updates are up to date. Please follow the steps below to update the K7 application. Open K7 Software -> Click on "Update" -> Click on "Run update now" to update the product. Currently, there are no version upgrades available. If any upgrades occur, it will update in regular updates in the K7 application.
 
MKS_vir / Arcabit - It has a good banking protection reputation here: Analiza modułów do ochrony bankowości i płatności internetowych » AVLab.pl
I'd especially interested in that.
And if there is time, second it for QuickHeal, which surprisingly also received a good rating there.

Hello :)

I'm going to organize the biggest comparison ever! :D
We'll be voting for the antivirus benchmark of 2024, to get 2025 off to a good start :D

What's it going to be like?

=> I won't be processing any more requests from December 20, giving me time to shoot the videos. In the meantime, I'll keep processing them.
The free battle will be released on December 27, the paid battle on December 30 and the final battle on January 2, 2025.
The competition is limited to 6 free and paid antivirus programs!

At the only battle, the free version will fight against the pay version (if the free version has fewer modules than the pay version, I'll downgrade the pay version to be fair).

I'll put up a topic at the beginning of December for you to make your requests, and I'll ask for the competition topic to be blocked on December 20.

Enjoy! :D

Symantec Endpoint Protection Please test Symantec endpoint protection with bloodhound heuristics set to max as well as sonar settings at high. They also have an amazing extension to incorporate. Symantec Browser Protection - Chrome Web Store
The client installs an extension automatically if browser intrusion protection is on and it's on by default and included in the IPS module
That extension is almost the same but with a different ID
Here is that extension Symantec Endpoint Protection - Chrome Web Store
Unlike the one above this requires Symantec installed to function

How do you get the endpoint extension to work on an unmanaged client? tried using it but blocked nothing.

Hi Shadowra, I don't know if you forgot my request about Gridinsoft Anti-Malware: Advanced Malware Protection in 2024.
In any case, even if I don't always have a log here in the forum, I have looked again and again and couldn't find a video test for Gridinsoft.

I would like to ask you again if you would do a test.

What I noticed with Gridin is that it sometimes reacts better to PUP and Pua than Malwarebytes,
for both I have a lifetime license, since I haven't done my own tests for a long time,
I would be happy if you would do a video test of Gridinsoft Anti-Malware,

Yes, I had seen it, but activating the trial version never worked :/.
