[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 774769"] I have a comped Dr. Web 1 year license for 10 PC's and was playing with this recently. Previously, I found SS11X to be underwhelming in some areas, and good in other areas. One area I really disliked was the firewall. It added weight to the system, dragged web pages a bit, and worse - wasn't capable at speeds exceeding around 250Mbps. I am happy to report they've resolved all of my firewall complaints and it can handily deal with 250Mbps-1000Mbps range connections without any issue. Another area they've clearly taken to the next level is the heuristic web scanner. It is exceptionally capable at spotting malicious acting websites and the generic/heuristic detection has been absolutely fantastic in my tests. Even slightly modified payload websites it was able to detect and block mid-stream. I'm feeling at this point it's heuristic web scanner is on par with Kaspersky and Sophos Home Premium. Which is a really good thing given the prevalence of payloaded web pages. As noted above, CPU spiking can happen on detection as well as on-demand scanning. Not a big deal for average people not dropping 200 packs on their system or scanning constantly. They've reduced the weight of the product significantly, it feels equivalent to something like Norton these days. I can't say how it performs under a wide range of conditions in terms of detection so we'll leave that there without further testing available. One major thing - they have 24/7 support now, including in English. I had the need to use support a few times in the last couple of days messing with it and they've been extremely proactive. Probably better than most firms I have dealt with in this area. So far, as Lockdown noted above, it's quite likable. Here's a vid of their new anti-ransomware tech.
