[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 999365, member: 92939"] Hello and welcome to the Watchdog Antivirus test! Watchdog is an American company, very unknown to the general public. They have been publishing anti-malware for a long time and have now moved into antivirus software. After a phase of BETA test (that we tested), the editor launched its final and stable version, I threw myself directly on it! The interface does not change, it remains clear and less buggy than the BETA. On the other hand, shield anti-ransomware and the Content Control always absent... But... Watchdog was extremely disappointing... On the BETA phase I excused it, but here it is different because it is a [U][B]STABLE[/B][/U] version! Seriously, where is the interceptor?! No detection of Watchdog! However all is joined together, it was has day, connected to Internet in optical fibre but not... Another point which disappointed me, the scan which is awfully slow... I suspect him sending each unknown files to his servers... It would have been better if it only sent a hash for comparison (I pity the weak connections... ) And last point: I don't see the improvements made, I even have the impression that it's worse than the BETA. Because currently, that the analysis works. It is a pity because it has good ideas, but they are not exploited as they should. Not at all recommendable, there is still a lot of effort and work to do unfortunately.
