[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 114834, post: 1097342"] Let's touch up on some facts here. Many products are designed for intermediate to advanced users. Many members here to try to convince these products are so simple average users can use them, when clearly in this thread they state differently. Most of these users can not handle software as it's designed but trash talk it when it's at its minimal settings as if its not capable, when's its those users who are not. Testing, is all over the place here, some want things tweaked others want it at defaults. CIS for example is always tweaked when tested here, why, because it's an application geared towards advanced users that know how to handle it hence why everyone else needs a guide. At defaults even CS herself would call it suboptimal. CS does not test full capabilities but focuses on modules, which is fine as long as you remind the users that's the case and that it does not reflect on the products full abilities. Stop me if I'm not making any sense here. Just because users here do not know how to tweak these advanced products does not mean these products are not capable of stopping infections. The only way to know for sure is to actually test them as designed with real world routes of infection. Even then some expert will step in and tell you the amount of samples matters as well. So why many of you find this entertaining, the harsh reality is it unnecessarily reflects poorly on the product when users watching are buffaloed into thinking the product is a failure from watching these inaccurate testings. Last but not least, I'm the one pointing this out, I do not need to succumb to your taunts of me testing to prove points, you all are doing a fine enough job of that on your own. I do hope at least some users coming by this thread, reads this and is enlightened by the facts. Everyone else can perceive it however they wish. [/QUOTE]
