"The best freeware anti-virus i have used."
Pros: I tried this by a reccomendation from a UK PC computer magazine and have been running it for almost a week and I am very impressed! The interface is nicely laid out - but detailed with selective options to suit your preferences. The scanning time isn't the quickest, but no doubt it is very thorough. This software is easy to use for a novice, yet it has many features of a paid version. There are regular updates and without the annoying pop-ups of which nag you to buy the full verison! A great piece of freeware of which is more than reliable for everyday surfing.

Version: Rising Antivirus Free Edition 20.44
Cons: this was one of the slowest, most intrusive programs i've ever tried. after 20 minutes of scanning a freshly installed OS this was only 30% complete. it installed some other program with a blue box icon. on restart some annoying useless blue scan screen showed up. it did absolutely nothing. i used revo uninstaller to get rid of it. this trashed my registry, i was more interested in the "FAKESCAN" that showed up while i was cleaning out the registry. these reviews giving this anything more than 1 star have got to be fake. there is nothing good about this program. try installing something else while you have this horrible antivirus running. this is almost as bad as a norton's product. i also cleaned out 600 files left behind. this is just total garbage, try it for yourself if you don't believe me. you'll regret doing it!!!
Summary: null

"VERY VERY SLOW!SHAREWARE FOR A MONTH."
Cons: It creates a lot of files as my HIPS suggests.The scans are very slow.Nothing compared to avira in the free genre.
CNET HAS GOT IT WRONG WITH "NO LIMITATIONS".It is free for one month only.
