5.0 out of 5 stars Quit Moaning About The Price, March 11, 2010

This review is from: ReLaunch Eset Smart Security V.4.0 [Old Version] (CD-ROM)

This software is ridiculous. After learning how some anti-virus software can slow down a PC more than just about anything else (including some viruses) I uninstalled Comcast's free McAfee and installed Norton. The result wasn't much better. I use AVG's free version at work, but it has problems granting access to programs and appears to take up too much memory.

Maybe there's cheaper AV software that can beat those programs, but I can't imagine it meeting let alone surpassing the performance of Eset Smart Security. Yeah, my computer's faster, but I've also had no firewall issues - all the highly recommended free firewall programs make me manually recognize my network any time the computer resumes from sleep. This thing seems intuitive. It doesn't throw a fit and protest every time I start Frostwire, but yet it is excellent at recognizing downloads, software, and pages that should require user permission. Sometimes I'm like, "Shouldn't I get a request to allow or deny permission/access," and then about 30-hundreths of a second later - boom! There's the alert. If anyone has or had McAfee you know about the multiple grant/deny requests for the same page or program - then, 30 seconds later when you think you're done there's another one.

Sometimes you get what you pay for. McAfee and Norton seem to invest most of their money in marketing allowing them to charge a cheaper rate for an inferior product. For some reason this appeals to a lot of people. I haven't tried Kaspersky, Trend Micro, Bit Defender, or the others because too many people I consider experts recommended Eset. No need to continue shopping from my end. Sometimes it's impossible to pay too little and get a lot. This is a great product and well worth the price if you rank peace of mind and your computer not behaving like a Slowski as desireable things. You get what you pay for. There's a 30 day no credit card needed trial if you want. That will get you 12 months and 23 days for $59.99 because after one week you're going to decide you want it. Cheers.

I have had all the protection software over the years. None of them has done the total job. This product is so great in all that it says it will do. After installation, registration, and first run through it found 18 entries that it swiftly and completely wiped out. Kudos to the designers, worth every penny spent.

I have been running Eset Smart Security 4.0 for approximately 9 months and have had great success with it. It runs quietly in the background and does not cause my computer to run slow like my previous antivirus did. I have Windows XP. I don't know if that makes a difference. I feel bad for the reviewers who had so much trouble with the product. I have not had any virus problems since using Eset. It updates automatically, but I do run my scans manually. So far I am very pleased with the product.
