What I liked about it


1- Web shields, behaviour shield, script shile etc(total 8 shield). None of the free AV offer this much protection.


2-Updates are blisteringly fast and are very small in size. Usually less than an MB.


3-No Ads while updating.(Pointing fingers at Avira)


4-Sandbox for dangerous apps.


5-Very beautifull interface.


6-Highly customisable(Nod32 and Bitdefender offer little customisation)


7-Bootscans are nice


8-Relativley low mem-footprint.


What I really dont liked


1-I like to set updates as'Manual' and it shows an pesky Big Yellow exclamation mark. Very annoying. It should only showup if you havent updated in 24-48 hours but it sticks there even if you updates a second ago.


2-Not so great against Spywares.


Recommendations: Use it with Malwarebytes anti-malware.
