Why doesn’t it detect mcaffee as a virus
xD
Just imagine if you had to get rid of Protegent or Navashield
Nortons couldn't detect AOL. :0
Because John has managed to get in prison again, this time in Spain. Waiting for extradition for tax evasion in the US.
Yes I am aware that the loonie no longer owns it.
I think it does or it used to
as usual mr leo, another great and educational video from your brilliant list👍;)..
I love the norton power eraser. Saved my ass from plenty of malware
Can’t it potentially destroy valuable and normal files?
@@p1xlfy33 But it does a good job at removing bad malware
@@karstonpranks4197 seems a bit risky no?
@@p1xlfy33 It is but you can save files in the cloud feature included with norton.
@@karstonpranks4197 oh didn’t know that I’ll have to figure that out
Since you have done these tests on many of the available products, the question is: What Anti-virus/ security product do you use?
@HussLegends no, in one vid idk wich he shows his taskbar. Theres no kaspersky but spmething i dont knoe
@@Kontofelhe uses Emsisoft AntiMalware as he works there
Thank you for your work! great content! very help- and insightful!
Please do a top 10 antivirus software list
Best antivirus is kaspersky
@nawquatree wow i didnt know that
Norton
@@fxjoon5562 norton begs you for money so it sucks
Kaspersky they win Product of the Year 2020
My only experience as norton user is how to quickly uninstall it from preinstalled new laptops.
Or clean install using microsoft windows iso
I decided to give it a try and the web protection is amazing(maybe too amazing sometimes,I am not entirely sure if all of them are trurly dangerous or they are just false positives)
But the fact that I have LifeLock preinstalled is also amazing from the fact that I got Norton for free on mobile,where it does much better than on PC.
But I think I will switch to Kaspersky Total Security after the 30 days are over,bc you can crack activation keys,unlike on Bitdefender
Big mistake. Norton is top tier anti virus these days. One of the best, and as a gamer myself I can tell you first hand it does not "slow down" your PC if your PC is slow upgrade your PC with something called a solid state drive welcome to the new world.. people have 200 dollar walmart laptops and blame it on norton.. nah its not norton in fact norton can detect when games are running and will not run any tests during gaming sessions just maintain its virus incoming protection only
Literally watching this video because it came preinstalled on my new laptop xD
@@Sparx75 Uninstall it
Thanks for all the videos been watching your channel for some time. I have been patiently waiting for you to test Norton 360, my main reason for using was it is protecting up to 10 devices. I'm coming close to the end of my subscription with Norton but I had already planed to move to another Antivirus suite. Thanks for keeping us updated and informed. I know where to go after watching this channel.
Free go to Kaspersky Security Cloud free or go Emsisoft antimalware Sale, i love this 2 only.. Now im using the Kaspersky Security Cloud Free but before i pay for 5 years the Emsisoft and love the support of theirs..
I am also coming to an end with N360 in Dec 2021. Not liking that auto renewal. I leave myself a reminder to cancel about 2 months prior. Been using Norton for about 20 years now. Maybe will try Kaspersky paid version. I think kaspersky has auto renew, but at least it gives you an option. BTW I also have malwarebytes that saved my ass way over N360. I have them both, however non are 100%. Along with these. You still have to be careful and smart.
@@shsechas CANCEL THE RENEWAL THEN NORTON SENDS YOU A LOT CHEAPER RENEWAL PRICE
@@olcapone3039 Thanks. I do cancel it and buy from a retail outfit or Amazon for a real cheap price.
If I remember correctly, Emsisoft uses the Bitdefender scan engine.
Bullguard was a very valid solution, my way to go solution, but taken over by Norton, as well as Avira.
Since then I have always used Bitdefender. Very easy to use and light on the system.
Kaspersky always recognizes a process from Microsoft Edge as malicious, but keeps running in a loop with the notification.
Never experienced that with Bitdefender.
Great video, not being a techy person myself your narration was great and easy to understand. So what is the recommendation? that you feel is the best security to detect and catch malware, ransomware, and PUP's that are user-friendly?
Hi Leo, I don't know if you notice but many these AV suits have become massive and have an abundance of features it seems overwhelming causing price effects of high amounts. It's just getting more complex and complicated I always found Norton very intrusive much more user dependent.
Finally, Leo uploaded
thank you so much for this video.
I use Norton on my PC. It works great and I haven’t had any issues
can you do a test on eset endpoint security?
In a recent attack at my office Norton was not able to detect the STOP DJYU virus (.efdc) file extension locally and even not on VirusTotal. However avast did it perfectly & cleansed the system 100%. Though files were encrypted but only 40%, rest as I quickly figured out and took proper steps to stop the infection further. This took me a week to recover the data, format the systems & setup back everything
Would be great if you did a test of Dr.Web. They were once the main Kaspersky rival, at least on Russian market, but seem to be almost completely forgotten today and not known internationally. They are still releasing products though, would be interesting to see them in action.
if you click where it says computer solution it will go to their channel then you click where it says video and you can scroll through their whole library of all tests they've ever done. pretty sure you'll find a Dr web one in there. you can also try looking through computer solutions library theirs are quite extensive and they do very thorough tests.
@@breakingthe4thwall260 yes, but ComputerSolutions is nowhere as pleasant to follow as Leo is. 😉
@@chessacademy2007 no but they are thorough.
@@breakingthe4thwall260 and CureIt utility is not the whole suite...
@@chessacademy2007 heres a link for 4 months ago for the Dr web security space, th-cam.com/video/08TT7cda1cg/w-d-xo.html
Norton is good. Only problem I run into is false positives. So sometimes its a little to sensitive. But you normally only get false positives if your cracking stuff oooor using certain modding programs for games.
no i get alot of false positives without cracking stuff plus i use steam workshop mods and the alert has nothing to do with those but when i scan it nothing comes up
Yh same but the Again it being to sensitive is good
u can change how aggresive it is in settings
I downloaded a cracked game and it would up being a virus but Norton removed it. Is it really gone?
@@explodev2550 yes. If it auto removed it with real time protection, then it's gone
In VBA Norton blocks "CreateObject("WScript.Shell"), part of any aged book, but recent ways Virus like Emotet uses, sn't blocked. Don't they check current threats?
Could you do a rating score at the end? maybe like 8/10 pro-active removals based on your experience with other antivirus scan?
I've been using Norton for about 2 years. I love it
I sometimes have a problem where it removes a file, but I need that file so I tell it to bring the file back, then it deletes it again, and then I rethink my life choices, then I go to settings and have to exclude the file from being deleted.
Please make video on latest version of quick heal..I want to know how it performs
Hi Leo,
Can you make a video for testing of Palo Alto XDR vs Malware
I have Norton for more then 1 year and i found a lot of virus, like trojan gen and i never had problems with the removing process.
Anyway nice video!
would like to see a review of Acronis 2021 fully integrated backup and cyber security with real time protection
Love your videos! They are amazung! Can you please test Dr. Web Security Space? Thank you!
Why didn't you click on delete to see if the virus process stopped and returned to the normal screen? if the option to remove it appeared you should have at least clicked on remove and see what happened .. It made me nervous to click on delete and see the result .. In fact it was infected but then it was removed and returned to normal, the system would still be damaged ???
Norton is pretty fantastic overall, not hefty to run like my old Best Buy job had us lead people to believe (They were partnered with Kaspersky.) The only big issue is false positives and as you pointed out, usability can be an issue for sure. Norton kept full-on breaking my Launchbox front end when it would try to update and it gave me no option to exclude it from the popup. Just told me it was blocked and the app would stop launching until reinstalling it. After it breaking it 5 times it finally gave the option to exclude. Keep in mind I even manually added Launchbox to the exclusion list and it still blocked and broke it. It only worked when Norton finally let me select the option to Exclude from it's popup window.
As a Norton user, the false detections are super annoying.
Thanks for posting this review! It's good to know Norton blocked over 99% of the threats. The other behavior you mention is odd. I'm not a fan of Norton, but it's good to know how much protection it can provide. Thanks!
1% of the threats: am I an joke to you?
My family and I Have been using Norton for years, never had any issues, I know it would take a lot of time, but it would be nice to see Norton side by side with Kaspersky and Sophos Home, with the same set of malwares, tested at the same time to see how they'd compare. My Norton subs run out soon, so I might go with Sophos for a change.
I use home. fantastic. Honestly get it over Norton. If you prefer normal UI and not a web UI get HitmanPro.Alert.
@@Akaya3511 Sophos Home Premium slowed down my fast laptop. Norton is much faster and wins the independent tests.
Sophos home premium is not the same as hmpalert, sophos home premium comes with additional features like malicios traffic detection
Norton is best, this guys "test" was a biased test. He allowed manual viruses onto his system, then tried to blame Norton for not detecting, he's a stupid clown. The reason he was trying to "remove" things throughout the video is cause he allowed them, Norton detected them, he allowed, then ignorantly was scrambling to remove them and blame Norton. I have been using Norton for 10 years and not been infected ONCE, Norton is a top notch Anti-Virus according to people who have this thing called a brain.
@@lolz616 You did not pay enough attention! The proactive detection means how many files norton detected before they executed you can basicly forget about them after malex finished, the reason why he was trying to remove them after norton failed to remove them on its own, is beacuse norton did not detected them before they done there job, after that it couldn't do it on its own. Norton has been historically awful when it comes to malware removal, it did detected those threats, as he pointed out, but it wasn't able to remove them, again as he pointed out, he didn't say that the protection is awful, he said the malware removal is!
Oh god i remember power eraser detected registry change and i didnt apply the fix. But now it doesnt detect that so am i safe?
I have been a 5 years user of Norton. So far, I have not seen any issue, but the video is awesome to show some shortage of Norton.
We have used norton for years, I have had a few viruses get on but had no problem getting rid of them that was with old norton(s). I love how it blocks the yuk from getting onto the system in the first place. I do not download a lot of stuff.
I downloaded a cracked game that wound up being a virus but Norton removed it. Is it really gone?
The Wild West of The Internet
My stepdad bought this and we never get these notifications randomly but he pays for it and he trusts it so we use it and it is pretty good for general use so I think it is in fact because you execute hundreds of malware at the same time I think if it was 1 malware item it does pretty well but good job
The laptop that runs my laser cutter is in the computer fix it shop right now with a Norton Infiny loop as was described in the video. Some type of Trojan that changed the desktop. We get image files for the laser cutter and every so often the laptop gets locked up and I am going to try Kaspersky and give it a try. I haven't lost the laptop yet and it is not linked to our business network. The cutter is isolated to the laptop that drives it, no WiFi connection. So the Trojan came in by sneaker net in one of our clients memory sticks. We are a small shop so this has been a cheap way to stay safe from outside files.
Leo, would it matter if malex is ran through a elevated cmd? Does malex run the payloads as a Child PID or as a standalone PID?
Does this also work for my new I Pad Tablet? I do not use my old apple product.
Hey, please test Symantec Endpoint Protection Including ICDm with their EDR feature? Thx
Bitdefender total security 2021, and then vs karpesky pls Leo
Question...
My new MSI laptop is coming with Norton pre installed, there is no way around it.
If an AV has been inactivated and set up, do you think it's just safe to go ahead and uninstall it as the very first thing I do before installing what I use, malwarebytes?
I really do not want to have to download all the individual drivers and do a fresh install
If uninstalling is not the answer, I guess I'll just sub to Norton after the 90 free days.
With Norton, i had my first touch with Ransomware a few years ago. And as seen in this Video, its made his way trough Norton, straight restarted my Computer and show me the red version of "your files are encrypted" Window. But it was such a stupid ransomware, it had no encryption on board, so Windows and all files are intact and i was able to open the taskmanager and kill the ransomware task xD. Since then i switched to a kombination of Kaspersky Internet Security and full licensed version of Malwarebytes Antimalware. Since then i never had any problems with malware or ransomware ever. This happend on Windows 7.
did you claim your money back from Norton ? i use norton 360 well happy with it and the service i get from hlep wheni use it
Will you test the newest Version of Norton LifeLock 360?
I wanan know if anything got rid of that particular trojan!
Over 99% of threats were detected and/or blocked by Norton. With these types of product you're unlikely to ever get 100% detection and 99% + is a good result. There is no such thing as being 100% secure online, no matter what software you install for protection.
Kaspersky had 100% tho (Atleast in the test he made) and I find it inexcusable anyway that a well-known trojan got past. I see no reason to use Norton over Kaspersky.
Mine doesn't seem to be removing anything it just keeps saying I'm protected even though there is malware have no idea how to remove this
It was the sa for , In the GMS I switched the "Program" to "Analog app 1 TE"
i would like to see how acronis true image home works with ransomware.
greetings, have you made any security review on AlienVault USM
Where to find all the viruses that u have collected ? I want to test on my environment. Thank you!
Problem with the Exclude/Fix option on Norton is that the Exclude option doesn't do Jack Feces. It will find the excluded item again .. and again ... and again .... so trying to get it to ignore a false alarm is impossible.
Yep. I found that I tried excluding a false alarm. Basically a no-op.
how does he collect all the malware?
Sir can you check Dr.Capsule Antivirus.
Your Norton notification only came up when you was trying to open Hitman, it seems like it was linked to that program, maybe you should uninstall Hitman and run again.
Can you try McAfee Gamer Security. while playing some games?
Please do a trio test or maybe quad
Panda vs Bitdefender vs Kaspersky vs Malwarebytes av
Could u remake this one? I got 360 lifelock, the one with identical protection, fraud insurance, and VPN thru my ISP. Would you recommend using this?
I recommend Norton from Norton them selves, and NEVER from retail or ISP
Keep in mind that when you need help or issues with the product, its the retailer or ISP that is responsible, not Norton…
You have issues with ISP-Norton, its up to your ISP to help you and give you the tech support! Could be expensive if ISP charge you premium for tech help.. Telenor in Norway here charge 25,- NOK pr. minute on phone…
They dont have the option to remote control your PC and help you first hand either.
With Norton you get free help and remote control with tech help , and you get virus removal too if needed
With retail you get the retails policy of the product and they are also always worse than what Norton them selves can do for you!
Never buy products from retailers if you can get it from the original source :-)
I think you should try manually quarantining the file.
It will enroll you to the annual subscription on the 45th day of your subscription and you will still have 15 days and it will be added with 365 days which will make it 370 days. This is happens so that you could get continued protection as there is a possibility of payment getting declined on the last day of the 60 day free trial and your device would be wide open for attacks. so in order tackle this it has come up with this.
My Bullguard product is partnering with Norton in a few weeks so Bullguard will become Norton Go Premium but this video doesn't fill me with much hope...
the worst part is the recommended action actually exclude the thing lol
It was necessary to set in the settings Delete threats to me on the spot and threats with a low degree of risk
Can you test Emsisoft?
I have been a user of Norton IS/360 for around 5 years now and it is actually a great antivirus in terms of protection but I have to agree with the annoying menu being a nuissance and popping out asking me what to do/what actions to take. It is not a very good thing if the software itself dont know what to do with a particular threat. So I moved on to a different antivirus and went with Kaspersky. I feel much more secured and confident with Kaspersky because it performed great in behavioral threat and zero-day malware detection.
so configure your antivirus so that it removes threats when you are not there, and threats with a low degree of risk
then there will be no window asking what to do
i suggest using a password in norton for unwanted to change norton settings, ive never had a treat issue which could not get solved
How did you fix it?
Hi. Is it possible to put Python command codes for us to use?
Can you plzz test quick heal's latest version ?
You CAN get a trial and cancel it immediately because I just done it as for the not being able to move thst one threat it seems unrealistic because norton would have picked it up if it wasn't handling everything else
Love your tests...
Same
I think its time for a bitdefender internet security test of the latest version with new ui
Please also make a same video like this with Kaspersky because in the Norton's website under the articles posts, they have posted an article related to Kaspersky vs Norton products, and according to them Norton is the winner of every test. I mean they have tested Kaspersky and Norton against viruses where Kaspersky has 82 percent result and Norton has 96 percent result and not only this they have written that Norton is now the best antivirus even powerful than Kaspersky against viruses and all that stuff. So please make one more video with Kaspersky as Kaspersky has always been excellent among all. As I am following your channel since long time thats why I know that Kaspersky is 1000 times better than all and bitdefender is also good. Please please make one
It's fake news... Kaspersky is much better than Norton
that was pretty awesome. but would you plz tell me how did you run more than one anti virus on the same machine without any problems? because I thought doing that will cause the machine to be very laggy.
you have to disable both real time protection and autostart on one of them. so basically the other one should only open if you launch it directly for a second opinion
He didn't run more than one, hitman pro is a second opinion scanner and doesn't stay active on the system...
Don't run more than 1 AV in real-time, because it can cause major problems and a virus can slip through as the 2 AV are fighting between themselves.
As a norton user it was a terrrible experience i got multiple trojans on my laptop and norton kept asking me to reset which i did numerous times and nope nothing. The trojans still there like wtf? Im paying for an anti virus that cant do its job
I've got norton ultra, I've had 13 major viruses trying to push through and norton saved me. My files are worth thousands of hours there backed up 4x over. I got so many files I have to spread it over 8x 1tb ssd and 1x 2tb hdd and 4x 2tb external. 18x usbs 😪 honestly there really good
you would be much better with a NAS for all this.
What happens if you do the same exact test with Kaspersky?
Kaspersky

I have scorecardresearch cookie on roblox in chrome, its that okay?
The '60 day trial' thing is quite scummy.
At least it's 60 for PC,for mobile is 30
And the fact that they want your credit card is bad.I only use Norton bc it's preinstalled on PC and I already have a free trial
It's 15 days now and you have to provide CC details
@@pscraft1337 When I had it preinstalled, I only had 30 days
Anyway,now I use KTS for who I am going to crack keys + HitmanPro for 2nd opinion scanner.
It's a shame you cannot have multiple AV on a PC and also work too.On Android you already have more basic security than on Windows.Add the fact that you can get 8 AV which work togheter amazing and what one can't detect the other can,you are basically immune to malware on Android
I don't care how much it detects, the fact that LifeLock shreds almost every single Unity Engine dll in Among Us while yelling VIIIRRUUUS!!! is inexcusable. Like seriously, UNITY ENGINE as a fp??
I’ve never had any issues with LifeLock and Unity Engine…?
LifeLock: sus
Among us is a virus that is plaguing our generation -Norton lifelock
@@callinater6133 🤣🤣
bro is complaining about among us dlls get a fuckin life 😭😭😭😭😭
do a ransomware test only on Norton antivirus
It seems like norton doesn’t have access because you accepted prompts during the malware attack phase of the video
can u test Bullguard Internet Security if possible?
Yes I also want it
I'm having a 6 month free trial
In my 10years of experience as a home user,, kaspersky is cheap and bast,, bitdefender also is an good option but it eat little pc performance 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Very good Norton. Is a bug, but the system is clean
Ive had a great experience with norton. But I still don’t doubt this video. I got it built in with my laptop and when my free trial ran out I didn’t get charged or any of that. It’s a great anti-virus but there is definitely better. It’s also pricey so after this year runs out I’m switching to malware bytes
Always buy the boxed version from eBay or Amazon it's so much cheaper.
I was a Kaspersky user years ago now i am a Microsoft defender user. no issues then and now but switching to Microsoft defender i saved money, low cpu, ram and storage usage, saved extra time by not installing a new antivirus software 😊
Do you know the difference between free and paid antivirus and the antivirus companies, the main feature you are actually paying for and critical with antivirus?
And you do know that Microsoft defender is not antivirus solution at all, right? lol
I used norton as a trial. I removed it in a couple of days. My system slowed down. I tried it back with win XP the same sort of thing back then the machine would hardly run. Back in the DOS world norton ran quite well; mostly did dos tasks of 3.5 floppies. : - )).
You should have run the ransomware test anyways. Yes, it’s better to see it work without the cloud, but you could just unplug it from the internet to deprive it of its cloud resources.
yeah if i know there is an active trojan or malware, always disconnect the pc from the internet so it cant "phone home" while you are trying to remove/kill it
Is Norton Lifelock 360 worth the $199.00 for a 3 year subscription. My NortonLifelock360 was automatically renew for the 3 years with no notification given. This way to high for me to afford.
No its not. norton is bad. thats way overpriced. just get bitdefender total security or the most expensive kaspersky. 200 DOLLARS FOR A HORRIBLE ANTIVIRUS IS BAD.
Can you recommend any cleaner program and antivirus that can detect and remove any malware or ransomware?
He has an old video on how to clean an infected system
Lol Cleaner.... the only cleaner I would trust is the one that cleans my house
There's no definitive guide, it depends.
Norton Power Eraser is useful though...
please test dr web security space v12
Norton user here (since 2015). I haven't had problems with unremovable viruses; mine seems to get everything removed without user intervention (no "Security Warning" windows).
You do not have the samples they have. This comment is void.
Norton not being able to kill a process tree is embarrassing. And as a coder, I can assure you, it is one line of code.
Why have you stopped using mbam as a second opinion scanner?
most likely when it went paid only. used to always be free, now to even download you need to pay. from my experience
@@TriforceOfCourage97 you don't?
@@baroneimen3248 i dont use it, went to download it a little while back for a quick scan, and i had to pay. used something else. I'm not paying for that lol

@@TriforceOfCourage97 Nonsense, I've used it for years on test PC's without cost.
Your recollection is skewed.
lets go ahead and go ahead.
I managed to trick the "required" credit card thing by using a Paypal with a dead visa gift card. 5-6 months in and still working flawlessly.
yup
how about Bitdefender? they say this is the best.
Can you tell me which is best antivirus software that is free and light(Doesn't take much of a ram)?
there arent any good free anti-viruses. if you HAVE to choose one just do avast, but avast isnt much better than windows defender
The problem with freeware is that its free for a reason. You have to get a VS, Firewall, Malware scanner, Adware scanner, Addblocker, Website checker..
Thats basic protection..
