Saw Assange’s twitter yesterday and worried that I might be infected (from VLC). Glad to know that my package (Emsisoft) neutralizes it. Surveillance to protect is nothing but BS. The Daily News tells us that. They spy to control. Relieved.

I see ESET Smart security is better than anything else.

Emsisoft is the most comfortable anti anything suite I’ve used , and you can’t go wrong with that . Why they even check your results and repair false positives , Bravo Emsisoft .

lol on respected sites like PC mag your AV is not listed within the top 5 of 2015.
Malwarebytes is not an AV and still it out performs Emsisoft.
Say what you want but a little digging on the part of the consumer can and will paint a very clear picture.
I dont have an issue with Emsisift, what I have an issue with is the scum companies that employ the “fear tactics” to promote or sell a product, that is shitty marketing.
Any company that has to employ these tactics is screaming “Stay away, don’t buy me”
Stand on your strengths and your product will sell itself right ?
not so much. lol

1. The information provided here is not from us, but from the leaked documents of Hacking Team and FinFisher. See the image links even go to the original sources to verify yourself. I admit it is scary and heavy stuff, but not being made scary by us. Big difference!

2. I’m sure you can show proof for your ‘score’ accusation. So far, all real-time protection tests I’ve seen Emsisoft ranks significantly better than Malwarebytes. AV-Comparatives awarded Emsisoft as one of the top rated products 2014 and Emsisoft Anti-Malware had the lowest number of total infected systems across ALL real-world protection tests in 2014. That’s hard evidence, just see http://www.av-comparatives.org

They count on you taking this literal.
I would gladly take this test just running Malwarebytes Pro alone with no antivirus in place.
Emsisoft’s scores are so far below the national average that they would rather have you focus on this bit of information thats produced “in house”.

It’s a false positive in Chrome’s safe browsing filter. You may check the website address at http://www.virustotal.com to confirm that no antivirus product is finding any threats on that Wikileaks page.
