why is Vipre so darn tiny?

My buddy is using it he says its like a little over 26 MB. He is testing the Vipre 4.0 beta premium with Firewall, Host intrusion, IDS. How is that possible. an entire secuity suite so small.

Certain software makers don’t have the time or patience to improve its detection capability without increasing the size.

Think what happened to Ad-aware by Lavasoft. Its big size doesn’t justify its detection capability. It had a nice software few years ago.

There are also some less size softwares that just run on steroids

Oh so it’s just a matter of the technology they use basically. yeah i agree with you AD-Aware wa good eons ago but now a Huge Behemoth.

If they continue like that I think they will become popular for the heaviest anti malware!
Hehe!

Absolutely, but people are still downloading it.

Don’t know why?

Hey I have a question!
I’m always trying to search for new software so…I was wondering if Vipre is not a bogus!
Hehe by the way can someone tell me how to know if it is a bogus?

Vipre is not a bogus software and its not for free
