In addition, you have to relax a bit the recognition of threats within the downloads of some browser. This antivirus has a lot of potential, I recommend it for any company due to the ease with which it can be used, you can use it and analyze your computer without previous experience.

During my experience, I noticed several positive things such as:

- This antivirus sometimes blocked downloads that it did not have to block, sometimes I downloaded things or files from irregular servers, and it bothered me quite a bit that I could not download these files because there is automatically a block by the antivirus, this forced me to disable the shield temporarily, I think that the detection of Irregular Files in downloads should be a little more optimal.
- This antivirus does not have automated or scheduled scans within the computer, every time you need to scan the computer you have to do it manually, you cannot schedule the scan for a specific date or time. -
