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.

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
