a tip-off from someone on another security forum, brought to my attention that the screen shot of Prevx2 used on their redesigned website reveals some differences in the GUI.

for example:

1) "Event Log" in place of "Program Activity" and if one looks closely there is some reference to something called Pinnacle.

2) "Scan & Fix Computer" in place of "Scan and Monitor" and more reference to Pinnacle (if one looks closely).

3) "Recent Program Activity" which seems to be a new page.

4) Check For Updates graphical link appears to have been removed.

i decided to download the "new" Prevx2, but the download file seems to be exactly what i have already (version number wise).

anyone have additional info???

Hi simmikie,

Still a believer?

I have been a long time Prevx user. At the moment it looks as though it is abandonware. But donīt be to disheartened. There are good alternatives out there, only if you are willing to change and give them a try. Iīm happy at the moment, as Iīm using one that very much reminds me of a Prevx Pro/2 hybrid. Starts with an -M, and ends with a -U.

Sadly, i have this abandonware feeling myself.

I have read that they are developing a "new incredible software" but this was claimed for Prevx2 too, with all his new features, and i can add this one:

if they put so little value in the users of the "old" software, what credit can you give to the new one?
How much time you'll be supported before that, too, is forgotten for new roads?

We are not in the phone business, where you have, according to them, to change after short periods to have shimmering new features, we need long term solutions and good support here.

Defencewall, yes! This brilliant app. gives you much better protection than any behaviour blocker or blacklist scanner.

also, they do read these post, the graphic of the 'new' Prevx2 GUI on Prevx's marketing site, which i noted the differences in my original post, has been changed back to the current Prevx GUI. what a bunch of weenies!
