Microsoft Security Essential 2.0 正式推出

微軟正式推出了 Microsoft Security Essential 2.0,MSE 第一版的口碑只是一般,但看過網上一些對 2.0 的前期測試有不錯的評價,說是加強了 IE 及 Windows 內建防火牆與 MSE 的整合,使他對用戶上網時有更強的防護,據聞新版也加入了類似智能行為防護的功能。

電腦玩家有編詳細的介紹,我就不在這裡多寫了。

金山毒霸

金山最近也加入了免費防毒軟件的行列,本來在虛疑機上試用可牛,但可能因主機上的防毒有網絡監控或是和虛疑機不夾,所以不能自動更新,那就正好試一試金山毒霸。

金山毒霸在一些測試報告上的病毒偵測成績並不出色,但它的效能及資源佔用表現上卻十好,那正好配合防護力較強的 Comodo 防火牆使用。

安娤毒霸時會警告軟件只適用於大陸及簡體視窗,但我安在繁體視窗上也沒有大問題,只是其中一個非主要功能頁面出現亂碼,而且也可以用 Applocale 解決。使用上暫時沒有發現問題,也真的很省資源,希望它能加強查殺能力,說不定未來主機也會轉用它。
