Usage: A state-of-the-art Antivirus protection program
Review Author: Rog3r (Mazeingmazerules)
This antivirus program is truly state-of-the-art. Not only does it stay on until you want it to turn off, it can find viruses when they initialize. That means you don't always have to scan things when you download it; if your lazy and somehow forget, it'll catch the virus when it's initializing - very useful. Also, on webpage’s it'll block any mal-ware or viruses that try and get installed and it'll notify you with a helpful voice. Although, the voice isn't what we'd call pleasant. This anti-virus program auto updates and scans when you’re away from keyboard. All of these can either be turned on and off. I haven't noticed a big difference while gaming when the anti-virus system is running and it seems to be very memory efficient. I can almost assure you that most of the nasty viruses out there won't be getting into your computer anytime soon while running this program. To add a bit of extra information, there is a nifty password feature built in. Some problems that are known is the layout of the menus which can be a pain and as already stated, the voice when the program itself is updated or a virus or what not is found which gives this program a less than perfect rating. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this.
