F-Secure Internet Security 2010 review

Long Term F-Secure Usage

I would just like to say that as someone who works in the education sector as a ICT Network Administrator who is also a MCP/MCDST/MCTS/MCITP Microsoft Certified Professional. I have been using F Secure since 2006 - excellent value, good parental controls on both my kids PC's. I have been a beta tester for them and when I moved to Vista Ultimate 64Bit they sent me a version that would cover me and worked fine, yes the splash screen can be a bit annoying but living with it day to day you learn to ignore it. Personally F-Secure has never failed me and I recomend it to many people when I perform new builds or reconfigurations. It gets my vote and five stars from me. I have it on 2 Windows XP machines (both kids) and my vista machine at home , I also have machines with comodo internet security (Free!) and AVG (also Free!) and Symantec Corporate. I feel that F Secure has the lowest resource impact of them all.

Disabling the Splash Screen

Although not obvious the splash screen displayed during startup can be disabled by removing the /splash qualifier from the registry entry for F-Secure Manager in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr
entVersion\Run
