I know I might be a bit late on this, but I just decided to write a
quick nice little review. The product is Eset Smart Security, or ESS (aka Especially Stupid Security).
I came across it while looking for a decent firewall for Vista. I used to use ZoneAlarm, but it caused some weird problems and so I removed it. So I downloaded this and checked it out.
Quick Pros -
Free during beta
Clean interface
Exceptional Virus, Spyware, and firewall protection
Quick Cons -
Some annoying bugs
No context menu integration - it's supposed to be added in the second release
Way bigger memory and CPU footprint than Nod32, but it's not unexpected (it's a security suite, after all!)
Final Verdict -
If you are a sort of advanced user, and don't mind a few little
bugs, check this out while it 's free (although I'm sure there would be a crack for it as soon as it goes final on the market). The firewall is decent, better than I thought, and the antivirus is Nod32, which says a whole lot. For beginners and impatient users, I would recommend that you wait for at least the second beta release.
