Yet more cyber condoms

Time for a geeky entry.

I have just discovered cloud antivirus.

Yes, that is all you see when you open it up. It is always up to date without downloading updates!

pandacloud See more here. So far I am pleased with it.

A while ago I reported on RadarSync and other geeky things. I eventually gave up on RadarSync – too many odd results. Instead I am giving Update Notifier a go. So far so good. I also use Secunia PSI on demand, not always switched on. I now have a 100% secure score from Secunia. The latest version also assesses browsers. Guess which one has an unpatched vulnerability, albeit rated as “less critical”?

For my firewall I am using Outpost Firewall Free.

Update 8 July

I have stopped using Panda Cloud and reinstated avast!. Panda Cloud worked well but I found it used more CPU in operation than my computer could spare.

  1. This sounds very interesting and I will try it. Right now I am using “avast” anti-virus and I have been satisfied so far.

  2. I was using Avast! too — which is very good.
