MWAV 8.1.7 is free of all the flaws posted by security analysts.

The latest is available FREE for download at www.mwti.net

They finally corrected the problem.

No false positives on my home computer now.
One has tro be careful with this product, though.

I find the product moderately useful for prescanning prior to manual removal but could not in good conscience advise anyone to allow it to remove all that it thinks that it finds.

Aside from the false positives which have to be manually weeded out it features an extremely slow scan rate and a log file that lists every file on the system being scanned!

This could be a very useful product if they could get it under control. Until they do it is only useful in a supplementary role.

You are definitely right.

The virus scanner seems to be ok, even good (due to Kaspersky fingerprints),
but the adware scanner is giving always several false warnings.
Also, the company cannot fix those problems. I contacted them last year for
flagging some clean files. The email service was unbelievably slow
(it took weeks) and they never could fix the problem. It is still there.

ha...seems like the mwav ''reps'' are at it again! The previous version of this software was ridiculous-chocker full of false positives, and got slated by myself and another Castlecop team member. I tried to start a pm conversation with the two people [mwav reps?] the last time they recommended mwav but didn''t get any reply.

nice idea - I don''t personally recommened anyone to use this software [from my own experience of using the previous version] until it has been given a thorough review, both of the company and the software by a suitably qualified security expert!
