DLord Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Comodo never worked for me back in the day on XP. I always ran into system problems with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dare you to be infected with one of the 5% of malwares left (if so you should have really searched for it then). Plus, with its default deny policy and especially its sandbox good luck to be really infected.Nobody said ESET is a average AV because it only did 97% on AV-comparatives in some tests, right ?

jimbojet2011 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Firewall is Outstanding ( when you got a little knowledge )AV is another story and don't get me wrong i'm not a expert in itI use the firewall and for AV Kaspersky, Beside that Malwarebytes premium and spyshelter premium!Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been using NIS for several years now and I don't see any problem with it, that is on XP, 7, and 8.1. Also it ranks on top in comparison to other security suites. Keep in mind that since few years ago with the new engine, NIS does not have the old problem of heavy load on the system any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breachinbleach Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thks for all replies I have tried KAv 2015 on my system but it was heavy and gave me disconnects ,great security though. I was thinking about NIS 2015 ,i'll see . Does anyone know if trend has only cloud features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
