<description><![CDATA[You've all got mighty balls of polished steel to head over to securitystronghold.com as this company that developes the software uses numerious different company names and programs that are UNSAFE for your pc.  The first person got it right on the votes, it clearly does state that it will do harm and break privacy because thats their goal.

Most people should have this along with a bunch of other sites added to their hosts file to block them.  Check any host file website that does daily updates and you'll get a decent list to use.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This may be an ok virus etc scanner, but is only as good as the database it uses.  This needs to be upadated regularly and I assume this is done from some source on the web?  Large companies like Kaspersky devote lots of effort in keeping on top of the lastest threats, but what about smaller companies?  The scanning engine used by these Antivirus co's is probably quite similar, for the purpose of on demand scan, so i cant see the advantage to change from a program like Avira - the free version that I use.  If I have trouble i then use alternatives like malwarebytes and root kit finders etc, until the problem is solved.
To encourage me to change my preferred program, developer needs to be very transparent on how it works, its advantages, etc and ensure user has max control of the app.  Not just click and forget.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[@6  Just the opposite :-)

The reviews I have read here and their level of rigor are beyond GAOTD ability to hire staff to find out all the issues.

Free software in exchange for peer reviews.
There is osmosis here.

<description><![CDATA[Hi, 

Reading the history, I think WOT actually needs an ombudsman, since they seem to be petty and vindictive against challenges.  As well as some overhaul of their "mass rating" tool in the hands of childish posters (like the 'superhero' who made the advertising blunder).  Something is very wrong there.  They also have to override stupid things like "child safety" on general ethics and debate grounds.  That should be limited to porn, gambling as with credit card abuse, stuff like that.  

However, the discussions on all that stuff had points on both sides. 

Overall, I still like WOT a bit, more for the discussions though, and the preliminary warning, which I often override.  I find their stuff can slow up browsing and tend to turn it off, but in some ways they are still one of the better web warning tools, with some self-correction.

On this Security Stronghold, I commented on Wilders. The fact that they have some types of Registry Cleaner scareware, false information major problems is enough to avoid them.  Then we see above that their actual program is juvenile level compared to the real industry.  GATD, take note.

<description><![CDATA[I use Web of Trust, with a grain of salt.  You can purchase insurance that helps yield yellow and red warnings: http://www.mywot.com/en/trustseal  

As for this software, I would advise True Sword to change their name if bad practices have ended. Maybe even sell it.  Also, put more work into your product.  There are many great free anti-malware programs and even better paid programs.  Look  at a-squared.  They analyze reports and even restore quarantined files later found to be safe.  It's a good way to build a database.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I don't think so.
One block like WOT u can understand but hosts file which is updated and old ones removed means still valid, also Norton ;all these can't be completely wrong.
I thought GAOT payed attention to warnings like these and wouldn't want to risk it]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Let me help Security Stronghold to rephrase their description's first sentence. 
Although we know exactly what you meant, there will be nitpickers on the quality of the English. 

From:
True Sword protects your computer against malicious programs, doing harm to your computer and breaking your privacy. 

To:
True Sword protects your computer against malicious programs <b> that may do harm to your computer and break your privacy</b>.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This passed my collection of 7 security software scanners that include AVG and Avanquest SystemSuite 12, Comodo, etc. The negative reports, as others have noted, seem old and unreferenced.  This program is pretty low on system resource use.  Since it has lifetime updates, I will keep it around for a while. I will review it after comparing to other programs and log the review later.  So far, I like it and I think it adds new and different incremental protection.]]></description>
