App Review Qihoo Security Essentials against Revenge Ransomware

[cruelsister]

Just realized this one wasn't published. On March 16 there was a Qihoo Total Security video vs Revenge, and here is the Qihoo Security Essentials vs Revenge companion piece.

As at the time of the videos there were not AV definitions in place, this will aid in comparison of the mechanistic blocking between the products.

Very nice comparison sister

I won't use either of those, but that was cool.
Why the big difference between the two sis ?
Judging by the titles of the software I would assume that SE would be a step up
in protection. But like I said I don't nor have I ever used either so I wouldn't know.
Thanks for the Test

Security Essentials is a stripped down version of Total Security. But the main difference is in the base mechanistic detection process. Note QTS has been averaging two new builds a month, but QSE hasn't been updated since August. I've always wondered if there were protection differences other than jive-time AV definitions; this Revenge file was at the time FUD, so I guess I had my answer.

Thanks for the review. I notice you like quihoo products, did you know that QVMII is an artificial intelligence engine?

As a QSE user, this is disheartening as I don't want the bloat that accompanies QTS.

CS... do you ever sleep? Your timestamps are painful to these eyes.

You noticed... I actually try to get a few hours of sleep every Monday-Wednesday-Friday.

Qihoo or KIS?

Qihoo is a cool, free antivirus but Kaspersky is a much better product.

To whatever you just said...OK...I wish I was as smart as you....Amazing...

I'm still waiting for a video that will be the same time as Coinleach glas an fhómhair.

That's 5 minutes and 57 seconds needed. Perhaps you could write longer explanations and leave the notes on the screen longer.
