en | It keeps redirecting me to yahoo, and even when i deleted it, it still manages to keep redirecting me (???). It's so annoying and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. Do not get this. |

en | Any software security program that cannot spell the word "safety" correctly is suspect. In this particular case, the program reported a serious security concern related to a potential malware issue in a document I was going to download from a company that self reported the issue and corrected it more than five years ago. I'm not impressed by an overzealous security app that isn't kept up to date. |
