Installation
Installation went simple without any problems. We just restarted the system & everything is up & running.
Uninstallation
Uninstallation is easy with just a click of button.
Dialy Use
The interface is fine & could be better. To be frank we feel, it has a simple interface. Not a lot of confusing options. There are daily updates & so the protection is up to the mark.
Updates
The
built-in update manager regularly checks for any available updates. It
depends on how you set this feature. Either you can schedule this or
you can do a manual update. Most of the updates come into action
instantly, while some asks us to restart the computer. |
| Spyware Blocker |
It is a good AntiVirus software. But it lacks a spyware blocker. Lets hope we get that in the next version.
