PC Security Test

Dude111

An interesting little program!!

PC Security Test is a free program for Windows that checks computer security against viruses, spyware and hackers. With a few mouse clicks, users can easily control the efficiency of their protection software (anti-virus programs, spyware scanners and firewalls).

PC Security Test simulates virus, spyware and hacking attacks and monitors the responses of your protection software. Don't worry, no real viruses are involved ! After the tests are complete, PC Securtiy computes a security index and provides tips on improving PC security. [more]

I'll pass, thanks.

pretty pointless app atm: last update was 06/12/2007.... the website doesnt exactly inspire confidence between a non-funtioning javascript on the menu tabs and a severe lack of any technical information or details on the publishing company.

No idea if its malware ( I doubt it is) but I wouldnt recommend users to download it as the risk far outweighs any benefits to be gained.

Seriously was it worth spamming boards with a thread about a 3 year old program?

I'll give that one a skip (but mainly because I'm running Ubuntu and have a smug sense of security )

FFS they cant even use the F7 key I dont think you could rely on them for a security evaluation. If you need to use software like this, then dont bother you aren't near secure enough to begin with

Are you really saying only good software is offered on the internet?
That being the case do we need security at all? :rolleyes::rolleyes:

The vast majority of software on the market isn't "good".

I can assume your original intentions were good, so we won't be too harsh on you. But that program looks borderline worthless.
