When an antivirus product appears in the reports from one of the labs, it means two things: the company felt that paying the test fee was worthwhile, and the lab's researchers thought the product was significant enough to merit taking up one of their limited number of testing slots. I follow test reports from five major antivirus testing labs. It's less common in commercial antivirus utilities. That sort of upsell is something I expect to see in a free antivirus Comodo Antivirus 10 is a good example. It's just an advertisement, an invitation to install trial versions of four other IObit utilities. The fifth, named Action Center, is a bit different. It's a slick, simple user interface.įour of the icons represent Home Page, Malware Scanning, Browser Protection, and Real-Time Protection. A column of five icons at left expands to a full left-rail menu when you point to it with the mouse. Green icons at bottom right reflect the status of the product's three protection engines-more about those in a bit.
The program's dark gray main window features a big, green status indicator in the middle, with some simple information about protection status.
