Buy new versions :)
I did not even test it... Another marketing gadget. Worse: technically stupid to not check which version you're running...

it's working just as fine as 4.0 lol ;D ... as there's hardly any difference at the moment between the two, they haven't implemented anything new yet... new build comes in 5 weeks or so. Current aurora build just has the label ;)... it's just the start build. The development process of aurora will be closer to "dev" on Chrome than Chromium, Chromium (nightlies) being the equivalent of Minefield (minefield has actually been renamed now, forgot the new name, may be just noghtly, and it's the 6.0 branch).

Get a load of this application. It claims to be a security app for women. Why gender would make a difference is beyond me but maybe I'm missing something. Make sure to look at the screenshots. Is it just me or does the GUI look extremely similar to another app we all know of?

Looks like a rip-off of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM)

They won't be pleased.

It's definitely not a rogue and the resemblance to MBAM is understandable when you read the following posted by a moderator in the MBAM forums:

"ChicaLogic is a partner with MBAM and an announcement is going to be made shortly in the coming day(s)."
