F-Secure Anti-Virus
F-Secure Anti-Virus protects your computer from Viruses, Worms, Spyware and other threats. With its new DeepGuard technology, F-Secure adds a new layer of proactive protection from unknown and future intrusions. F-Secure has a good recognition rate for viruses and Spyware. Only recognition of Web Exploits present a stumbling block for this Anti-Virus software.
Disadvantages include slow scanning speed and its user friendliness could be improved as well. Using this software is not exactly easy due to its sparse user interface and user manual.
Advantages
- Fast and easy installation
- Few false alarms (false positives)
- Good reaction time to new viruses
- Large number of expert options
Disadvantages
- Long start-up time after installation
- Confusing user interface
Summary:
F-Secure Anti-Virus recognizes almost all viruses and Malware. This software could be more user friendly. If that does not scare you off, you get good protection from threats.
