    Opinion about Agnitum Outpost Security Suite


    Came across this recently

    December 30, 2010*— The industry’s first free security suite knocks out competing paid solutions

    Outpost Security Suite Free outperforms commercial products in proactive security tests, while its "parent" passes 5 antivirus tests in a row.

    Touts itself as better than commercial products, currently using ESET Smart security and planning on changing with this Outpost Security Suite

    What's the opinion of people who use this software? is it worth switching to?

    Hi BlueBear,

    Mmm...I've not heard of them yet. In addition to getting opinion here, its worth checking these sorts of claims with independant anti-virus software testers. Try searching for Abnitum with these:

    AV-Comparatives - Independent Tests of Anti-Virus Software - Welcome to AV-Comparatives.org

    Virus Bulletin : Independent Malware Advice

    AV-Test.org · Tests of Anti-Virus- and Security-Software

Anybody else out there using Agnitum Outpost Security Suite? Their latest has Win 7 support, albeit in a "beta" status. So far no big issues: 1 - Had one false positive trojan (see thread https://www.sevenforums.com/system-security/17892-trojan-vb-vzo.html) 2 - The antispam doesn't seem...
