Dear justin1278 - and others,
I too was intrigued when I heard about a new, free, full-featured AV coming out. When it did, I was the first one to post about it on Wilders. I still am very curious to see how it will perform in the future, once it is finally ready. And I certainly hope it becomes better than avast, and avast again becomes better than it, and so on. Why? Because that would be in my best interest, as a user. I don't have any problem with anyone helping them in making it a solid product, I think this is lawful, and in the past I also helped security products becoming better (avast, ewido and others - as much as I am able, of course).
On the other hand, what I DON'T like is going to another product's forum (a competitor's one) and starting an argument. What I DON'T like, is telling others "Do you think you could post your comments in my post in the avast! forums?" (
http://forums.comodo.com/index.php/topic,377.0.html) so that they can "help" you. what I DON'T like is Commodo forums trying to create "fanatics" (just take a look at their smilies) about a product THAT IS STILL IN BETA!!!
I would really appreciate it if you just created a post saying "Hey guys, I just switched to another AV, because I think avast doesn't have a good enough detection for me, because the support is lusy ... (whatever else you want goes here)...". But advertising another AV here? That really doesn't look good, I hope you understand that Justin. And the only reason I am writting all these is because I never want to see another thread like this here
"Hi folks,
the time has arrived - after several severe warnings about all the flames here I am forced to close the Off Topic forum. I am very sorry to do this but I do not see any other alternative. I think this was quite unique place on the Internet where friends can meet and discuss different stuff. Unfortunately, sometimes I feel like it is a kindergarten.
I hope all of you will understand our step. I would like to thank to all of you who help us not only to support avast! but to keep this site to be such a wonderful place.
Please do not use the other specialized forums for offtopic stuff.
Take care!
Pavel"
I hope you do understand that. I have nothing personal against you (or anybody else).
Peace.
