Domain Name Com's - Software : Panda Platinum 2006 Internet Security [Old Version]

- Minuses outweight the pluses...
I wish I could give this product a higher rating--it seems to be an effective antivirus product, and certainly works better against spyware than Norton or Mcafee.

BUT....Panda has essentially non-existent tech support, and you'll be wishing you had some support when the program keeps telling you it can't update because your username/password are wrong (even though they aren't). Or when you keep having to chase around their incredibly circuitous website trying to find an answer to seemingly simple questions.

Overall, Panda 2006 is just too much hassle to set up and use, and while it seems to work OK once set up, one still is left with a nagging sense of doubt about whether it is really operating correctly full-time or not.

Not exactly the comforting feeling one wants from a security package.

- Slow to load but otherwise great
I have had both 2005 and 2006 versions of Panda and have never had a problem. I am on the web alot and send lots of emails and have never had any viruses or spyware on my computer.
Panda is slow to load. It takes my computer about one additional minute to boot up before I can use it; but hey, for the protection it gives me it is worth the wait.
I have had to contact customer service once about a download for the 06 version. I was able to find the download myself, which is good because they never got back to me.

- Will not even install
I am trying to install the evaluation version of the product (both Titanium and Platinum) and neither one will install. They keep saying that McAfee A/V is already installed, but that computer has never *had* McAfee installed on it.

I went into the web site's suport... their "troubleshooter" provides zero help. Their "knowledgebase" returns no results for the search terms "compatibility", "mcafee", "zonealarm", "incompatibility", "incompatible", and "incompatible program detected"... apparently they don't think there are any such issues.

I called their information line and (surprisingly) got through to tech support. They emailed me a replacement "avdetect.ini" file that would fix the problem... it didn't.

If I could install it, it might do a fine job. But the company clearly needs to work on its install routine.

- Shuts down your internet connection!
This product is HORRID! I loaded it, and my internet connection was shut off by it, and none of the 'trditional' way of getting it started worked. I called Panda, Microsoft (who couldnt help, as it was 3rd party software that caused my problems), Panda again, and nothing from anyone. Horrible customer service, Horrible product.
Buyer Beware!!
You are hereby warned!

DO NOT BUY THIS AWFUL PROGRAM!!!
Norton is the way to go...FOR SURE!!!

- Not a Cute Panda
This program mostly prevented me from connecting to the internet, so I guess you could say it is the ultimate internet security package. I ended up unintstalling it and sending it back to the seller for a refund because:
1) When I booted my computer (a Pentium 4, 2 GHz, 256 ram, Windows XP), Panda loaded itself before Windows was finished loading and hung up Windows on the "Welcome" page with a largish Panda-in-your-face icon.
2) When I clicked on the panda icon to determine what was going on, nothing happened.
3) My computer would remain this way for at least 45 minutes, at which point I would get totally frustrated and turn off the computer.
4) But,the only way I could turn off my computer was to unplug it; the power button wouldn't work. Panda has taken control!
5) It only took 4 or 5 times of going through this scenario before Windows would finally load.
6) I had this problem constantly for over 2 weeks, despite trying every feasible configuration of the program.
7) I contacted Panda Software about it via the email address they suggested on their website. I never received a reply.
8) Once I uninstalled Panda, everything worked just fine.
9) Taking into consideration the lack of customer service and poor performance of the product, I think they should have named their company "Abominable Beast."
