    360 is terrible, detects almost no viruses and only serves to consume resources of your pc
    if you think it's good just because it ''works'' , you have serious problems

    IMO the detection rate is great, I believe that it would depend on which article you are reading about Qihoo. oh well, to each his own.

    I use 360 Total Security Essentials as I do not need all the software that comes with 360 total security. I have been using 360 for approx 5 to 6 years with all 5 engines and the configuration set up for security protection. so far so good, have not had an infection in about 10 years. :)

    My point was I would rather have false 'positives' than missing any 'threats'.

    I also found this in the 2nd link of the 1st post in this thread - go to the very end of the page.

    "Lest American readers feel smug about this, this week U.S. prosecutors and government officials told Congress that Apple and Google need to weaken their mobile-device encryption standards so that police and other authorities can easily read private citizens' communications"

    In any event, google, facebook and all the rest of them have been doing this for years.

    360 always felt like a hog on a single core Atom, honestly the only protection you need is your own noddle... that's more than enough and stronger than any AV.

    Avast et al. aren't all good companies from what I've heard but at least they're better than Qihoo who have repeatedly cheated AV tests...
