It may be legit as it`s been around for a few years and I think it was discussed over at wilders at the time ?

Still would`nt want to pay online as I dont want any messing around with my bank details no matter what the price.

I just wonder has anyone done a review of it ?

Regards Eck:)

Let's say its a legit due to engines that were properly license? (Bitdefender)

Lack of information to determine if Bitdefender willingly use theie engine by the company.

However fishy tactic is already exist from the time when attempted to download because suppose to be free version without charge.

I think it`s supposed to be a small fee charged to cover the posting of the disk.

Still not worth the risk of putting your details out there.

And why not simply let the users download it instead of keeping such past thing as posting a cd?

Great! Thank you...... It wasn't long ago that I requested the members here in a thread to make a comparitive review of various freeware antiviruses dealing with various aspects like Performance, Detection, Removal, Heuristics, Anti-phishing, False positives and more if needed.

Good to see Qihoo performs great as expected with the fastest scan speeds. How long back as this test conducted, because they show results for Qihoo IS and not TS. Also the title for Virus Detected is confusing. Because I thought that Qihoo detected no threats or traces during scanning :confused:

I'd like to see how the testing goes for various other modules :D

Here is the official link for it: http://www.mysecuritycenter.com/pt/products/my-free-antivirus basically when you try to download the free version, it asks for registration and it delivers the cd by postmail you can't actually download it!

That link carries a RED WOT rating
