I'm no technical expert, but is there a chance that it's the simulator that prevents this from working for technical reasons? If this is indeed the case, I wouldn't expect WSA engineers to 'fix it' so that WSA works with the simulator and every new version of it.
The point is that even if it doesn't detect it, Identity Shield should protect the browser from the MitB that the simulator performs, but it does not.
Totally agree superssjdan. Ive been running WSA on 3 machines and all still malware free. I sometimes wonder how much money people spend on Security Software on their computers because of these tests. They see that their security software did bad in a test so it's time to switch software until that one does bad on a test, then it's switch again. As for me I'll stay with WSA for the long run. I have 335 days left on this keycode and another keycode with 1368 days. :D@ wrote:
Results have been great here.2 machines running malware free since day 1 of WSA and now a tally of over 30 installs of WSA that i have done for others which are all running malware free at last check..running a variety of browsers and os's.As a matter of fact,i just recently renewed and have 875 days remaining.If i thought for one second that my computers,or those of my family,or friends were truly at risk in any way,i would never have renewed,nor recommended the productline to others.I do not believe in wasting my money,nor time,esepcially in today's world.There are far better ways to channel one's energy than to fret over a test.Relax people.There are much bigger fish to fry.Webroot has our backs,rest assured:D
