[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 850239"] Agreed. The best is when YouTubers start doing their own performance tests (in a VM) and run a simple benchmark and go, hey this one performs better than the other. Really??? You are running a performance test in a VM and expect to get anything reliable. Furthermore if you re-run that benchmarking tool, you'll get a different score 5 seconds later. Aside from performance tests, this can also be extrapolated to your typical a vs b thread asking which product is better. At the end of the day, no product is perfect and every product will miss something at some point. As to performance, every system will be different and everyone's experience will be different. It's why I dislike a vs b threads, it becomes a popularity contest, rather than being helpful. It's further compounded when there's a poll and the vast majority of people answer the poll, rather than posting a thoughtful reply in the thread. Everyone's experiences are different. What works for one person, doesn't mean it will work and perform the same for another. Similarly, what one dislikes, doesn't mean everyone must dislike it. It's why people just need to TRY the programs for yourself and go from there. If you're looking for a product that will protect you 100% of the time, I hate to burst your bubble, but it doesn't exist. Stop relying on your security program to do the thinking for you. Start practicing safe computing habits and let go of the typical fear and paranoia that is generated from security company marketing, as well as general security form paranoia. Your habits are just as, if not more important than the security program. So as long as you practice safe habits, choose which ever program works best for you, meets your needs and performs the best for you on YOUR system.:)(y) [/QUOTE]
