 Software : eTrust EZ Armor 2005 |
|
Rating:  - Better PC performance
I had trusted one of the major company's antivirus software, but it caused me a lot of conflicts between softwares, it took me like 2 minutes to turn off, and even longer to turn on. When I scanned the system for viruses I couldn't do anything else. And when I wanted to watch movies there was a lot of skipping.
Now my computer is performing much better with this antivirus and firewall. Now I can surf the net while scanning my system. I upgraded the software and a whole system scan took only 35 minutes. That was pretty impressive, because usually it took me over an hour, no matter the program, with the difference I could do other things with EZ.
Best thing is I got a 1 year license through microsoft and it hasn't expired, but when the time comes I'm pretty sure I will renew it.
You can also configure it to scan files sent through IM programs. It scans emails, with out slowing down the upload or download.
This is the cheapest program, but it really delivers. My sister in England got it too and is pretty satisfied.

I purchase this package on 5/10/05 it arrive the next day - free shipping great job Amazon. I installed the program two days later and over the weekend witnessed a fast deterioration in my computers speed, especially on the net. It would hung between pages and not recognize others. I had trouble getting to the CA support page and eventually uninstalled the program, which sped up my computer and got me to their 24/7 support desk. I sent a message on 5/16 and waited for a reply and waited. On 5/22 I received the following -I infer from your mail that your EZ Armor has gone corrupt. Please Uninstall & reinstall it. Which I did removing all trace from my system and the registry. I reinstalled the link they gave me but this failed to install the AV. I sent several comments back but I don't think the person could understand English. The final straw came when the individual blamed Microsoft windows security for the problem and suggest I call Microsoft - for their (CA's) corrupt software Dah!! and offered no other course of redress. I shall purchase another security suite and tell all whom I know to stay away from this product. This is a waste or money and more import a waste of time.
Rating: - Awful, awful software and even worse customer service
I absolutely hated this software. Within minutes of loading it onto my HP computer w/ Windows XP, my PC started having issues. For one thing, every now and then since loading it, windows would just start opening at random and it would be impossible to close them all so I'd have to shut down. Also, this software is very strict. For instance, it's recommended settings block auction item pictures on Ebay. I tried and tried but could not find a way to lower the setting for just ebay so had to lower all settings and finally, ended up turning the software off. Customer service with this company is a joke. TO receive help over the phone, you have to pay per phone call. You can email for free but they don't bother to answer the email at all. So basically, if you want to discuss their $39.99 software with them, they're going to charge you $50.00 to do it. What a bargain! Eventually, I uninstalled the software, snapped the CD in half and sent it back to them. They can keep their junk. I uploaded Microsoft's Beta spyware for FREE and it works much better. Don't buy this junk!

I installed this on a brand new Dell computer and when I restarted the computer it would not restart Windows. I spent 30 minutes with Dell support to get my computer back up. I did a system restore and then bought McAfee and it works fine. You get what you pay for.
Rating: - EXCELLENT!!!!
eTrust EZ Armor is the simplest and most efficient software I have ever used! I purchased it after my Norton software failed to detect a virus and countless other adwares. Mind you, I am very attentive to update regularly, obviously it was pointless. I purchased McAfee Internet Security bundle and the disc was defective right out of the box! I spent a total of 4 hours and $40 bucks on phone support trying to INSTALL the software. I had enough and quickly demanded a refund for the phone support and will be returning the software as well. The next day, I ventured into the local Circuit City picked this great software up, up and running in less than 8 minutes!!!! I was impressed.
Bottom line for me, Norton is garbage, McAfee is worthless. Big brand names don't always equal quality.
