[QUOTE="509322, post: 771262"] The funny thing is, most of the people who buy and use the soft don't care. It is the security soft geeks who seek perfection or whatever it is that drives their internals that have emotional meltdowns. It's default allow. What does anyone expect ? The expectations, plus the mental and emotional involvement are I don't know what... there is something really disturbing about it all. That people react so strongly and carry on as they do on some of these threads... it is obvious that a whole bunch of maladaptive stuff is going on. Some people will switch because there is only a 1 % or less difference between AV-Y and AV-Z. Some people freak out because AV-Z fails - at Office exploits for example - but they don't even have Office installed on their system. Still they will dump the security soft "Just because... it must be flawed in other unknown, hidden ways" Wut ? That is ludicrous. Some people cannot cope with the idea of inert malware on their system. Even worse is botched malware that runs, but does nothing. Some people have massive brain hemorrhages if an AV allows inert malware or malware that sits there and does nothing. Any security soft that allows such things... gotta switch immediately. Some people are hurt when there beloved soft doesn't do so good. And with some, if there is a bypass or something is said that the person just doesn't like, oh... look out. Time for multi-cross-forum dramas. I could go on for quite a long time here, but my finger tips would get too sore. [/QUOTE]
