Changed features

Antivirus:

• Default actions for handling Riskware are now "Quarantine" for on-demand scanning and "Handle automatically" for on-access scanning. Both on-access and on-demand cleaning will result that the riskware infection is moved to quarantine repository. Previously, this setting was "Skip" for on-demand scanning and "Block the application for now" for on-access scanning which resulted that the riskware was not cleaned from computer with default settings.

All seems to have installed without issue.  My only comment so far is that perhaps it's time to update the 'Snow' theme, although, I don't know what the weather is currently like in Finland!

@Simon

 

New theme is already done but it just missed this TP release. Our defense is that there is still snow around the office.

I wasn't too bothered by the banking protection banner before, but it's nicely concealed now.  Has anything else changed with BP though?  It's just that my banking site seems to be opening more slowly than usual at the moment.  Will monitor and see how it goes.

Hi Simon,

there has been no logic changes in BP, so there should not be any speed changes. Please do monitor and if the slowlyness continues, we'll check it out.

hello, when will by the final version release?

Ville

@Nyo_Lc

 

This is an ongoing beta program. When we are happy with the quality it will be a release version. Typically we do 3 releases every year. It will still take time and preparation for the release version to get updated to F-Secure SAFE and F-Secure Internet Security.

ok I did not have th proper reaction

Simon

I've just submitted http://www.base.com as a url which triggers BP, when I don't believe it should - at least, not before logging into an account, or entering the checkout.  It's the only one I regularly have this with, and it's been happening for some time, but I've not thought to submit it before.

the difficult thing is to reproduce this thing as it is erratic, I'll send the next one, if any
