    This program shows too many falsepositives.

    I have complained to EMSI about f.ex that all startfiles for each addon of Sims 2 is flagged as highrisk malware. The only response i get is that they will look in to it. That was almost a year ago. Still this files are flagged as malware.

    In the freeware there is no realtime protection. The a-squared service can therefore be set to MANUAL. Have complained to EMSI about this as well, no response at all.

    This is NOT a program for beginners !

    Still good, but I'm changing to Avira, due to better virus detection ;)
