Emsisoft Anti-Malware 8.1 Review

Emsisoft Anti-malware

Searching the internet for a good option to detect malware, such as trojans for example, we "fell" on Emsisoft Anti-Malware.

We were impressed by the tests he carried out av-comparatives.org the unknown so far in our Emsisoft Anti-Malware occupies the top positions.

We decided to investigate it further. We downloaded it and we installed it on a fully updated Windows 8.1 system.
The installation was a game, and it ended in 2 minutes although the installer was big enough (about 180 MB). After downloading all of our updates, we asked to choose the type of scan, fast, smart, complete or custom. We chose a quick scan to start,

Note: The program was installed on a computer that had already installed another anti-virus, but another Anti-Malware to compare the processes but also to see if they work together and do not fall over each other. Although we do not recommend it to you, all the apps have worked together flawlessly.

The image below shows Emsisoft's low system requirements. While scanning the computer we were testing on, the of the system did not exceed 30% while the memory used by the program was only 1.4MB. Just below is the anti-virus, which at the same time needed 3MB and 101.7MB while idle.

The binomial scanner of the application appeared to be very fast and we were surprised to find out how light it was during the scan. The results showed that it is lighter than products using a core.
The database used for the scan contains 99.298 malware samples. It's exactly the same as used by Bitdefender Total Security 2013.
We visited quite a lot phishing sites and Emsisoft Anti-Malware has shown us that it can provide us with protection. As soon as Anti-Malware detects the malicious website it immediately blocks the loading and gives us a warning. With Internet Explorer, with Chrome and with Firefox it was impossible to have at Phishing websites we chose.

typeThe program is designed to be easy to use (installing in Greek greatly helps in later management of the application). Emsisoft Anti-Malware as we mentioned earlier uses Bitdefender's crawler. Prior to 7.0, he was using Ikarus, but he replaced it because of his tendency to pose false positives for programs that were harmless.

What is he doing

Conclusion

The malware detection rate is quite a strong point of the app. Also the minimal consumption of system resources running the program makes it one of the of his kind.

Its price makes it very affordable since its cost of use for one year is 20 euros. Along with all of the above, we were pleased to note that the software developers, have a support forum.

Without excessive design, and with a very high level of reliability in scans, Emsisoft Anti-Malware unveils the target of its development team: Focus on security rather than on showcase.
