This picture is unfortunately worthless. You have to look for the date and version of the downloaded definition updates. If the programme does not offer any information, you have to look inside Wise Anti Malware's folders.

Ok i check it and it is out of date. That is why they give the pro version for free

What is particularly perfidious is that the guys from Wise have probably deliberately hidden the information about the update status in order to avoid negative feedback. :thumbdown In previous versions, this update status was available. I consider this to be dubious and interpret this concealment tactic as a pretence of a sense of security on the part of the user. :realmad: This is definitely a no-go. snegatif.gif

Just a reminder! This thread is about security programmes targeting Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit). Reporting testing results targeting other operation systems should be done in the corresponding threads. Otherwise, this would only lead to misunderstandings and confusion here in this thread. Nevertheless, I do state the full system requirements for every programme I write an article about here. However, that does not mean that experiences with other operating systems should be posted here in this thread. :no: Only what relates to Windows XP is relevant here. Therefore, I welcome any experiences related to security programmes under the operating system we are exclusively talking about in this thread. :)

Cheers, AstroSkipper firewall.gif

And since my time is also limited, and I cannot test every programme in depth, I would be very pleased if as many Windows XP users as possible would install the programmes presented here, even if only for testing purposes, and report on their experiences. This is valuable information and will help others to decide how to organise their protection under this old operating system. :yes: This thread also needs regular information about the current status of all programmes presented here so that the lists from the posts #2, #3 and #4 are always as up-to-date as possible. Thanks in advance! :)

Malware Hunter has been updated on 11.12.2023 and is now available in version 1.176.0.796. It is still listed to be compatible with Windows XP. Accordingly, I will update my article as soon as I can confirm its XP-compatibility.

Panda Free Antivirus

Panda Free Antivirus (recently also called Panda Dome) is a cloud-based antivirus application designed to protect the user without wasting resources. It is extremely light as all the work is done in the cloud. Panda Free Antivirus provides fast protection against the newest viruses thanks to its cloud-scanning from Panda servers. Even the most recent version of Panda Free Antivirus is still compatible with Windows XP (SP3 32 bit editions only).

Features:

  • Antivirus Protection - Real-time protection against all types of malware and spyware. Schedule periodic scans and/or scan your computer on demand.
  • USB protection - Protect your PC by preventing the automatic execution of malware from USB drives. Scan all USB drives upon insertion.
  • Panda rescue kit - Free PC recovery system. Run an advanced scan of your PC or create a rescue USB drive to boot and clean those infected computers that won’t even start.
  • Multimedia/Game mode - This mode ensures you play or watch multimedia content without disturbance from your antivirus while remaining completely secure.


Homepage: https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/homeusers/free-antivirus/

Version number: 22.01.01 update.gif

Date of release: 15.09.2023

Previous versions:

  • 22.00.01 released on 01.04.2023

System requirements:

Compatible with: Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP (SP3 or higher, 32 bit only).

Compatibility with Windows XP 64 bit:
As already confirmed by @WSC4 and @UCyborg, Panda Free Antivirus is unfortunately not fully compatible with Windows XP 64 bit editions. smilie-denk-17.gif The installer doesn't seem to detect the already existing .NET Framework 4 installation. A .NET Framework reinstallation via the installer also fails. If you still want to use Panda Free Antivirus under Windows XP 64 bit, you need to make some changes for the installer to work properly, which @UCyborg has found out and described here: 
https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/?do=findComment&comment=1253877 
Whether Panda Free Antivirus will run stably under Windows XP 64 bit is currently unclear and has to be confirmed yet. In any case, everything is without guarantee and at your own responsibility. jexplique.gif

Release notes:

  • New cloud-based disinfection engine
  • New behavioral analysis engine in the free edition
  • Improved offline protection
  • Process monitor allows seeing Internet connections on a per process basis
  • Improved performance and 50% faster scans
  • Compatibility with newer versions of Windows
  • New interface
  • Ability to manage different licenses

Panda Free Antivirus is based on new cloud computing concept in which services are provided over Internet. This new antivirus scans files through Internet which makes it very light on system resources. It also doesn’t need regular updating of virus definitions as it automatically updates the virus definitions in the cloud (remote server) and scans files using those latest virus definitions. The user should have a good speed Internet connection to fully utilize this new cloud based antivirus otherwise it won’t work. No problem if the user is offline, it’ll still protect the system from virus attack as it stores the virus definitions in local cache as well. The system load of Panda Free Antivirus is very low (lower than it was for example with WiseVector StopX), and the detection rate is supposed to be very good according to my research. I used it for a while, and it is definitely an option for Windows XP. o-k.gif

Update notification! update.gif

Panda Free Antivirus has been updated on 31.10.2023 and is now of version 22.02.00. Thus, I'll update my article and my list in terms of Panda Free Antivirus.
Maybe. one of you can test the new version under Windows XP SP3 32 bit only to be sure it is still compatible as advertised here: https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/homeusers/windows-antivirus/
This is a quotation from this website:

Quote

Compatible with: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP (SP3 or higher)

Such a confirmation would be great. Because, as we all already know, the proof is in the pudding. :P

Zemana AntiMalware

Zemana AntiMalware is a second opinion malware scanner designed to rescue your computer from malware that have infected a computer despite all the security measures one has taken. There's no need to tinker with confusing settings. With years of experience built-in, it just works "out of the box". Zemana AntiMalware is highly optimized and lightweight with virus definitions stored in the cloud, not cluttering up the local drive. Zemana AntiMalware can be used in two versions, Free or Premium. A valid license is only needed for the Premium version. Zemana AntiMalware 2.74.2.150 is the last compatible version with Windows XP. The more recent version v3 are no longer XP-compatible contrary to the information on the Zemana's homepage.

Feature comparison Free vs. Premium:

Zemana Anti-Malware is indeed a lightweight tool and IMHO, rather meant to be used as an additional security layer. It is definitely not a fully fledged antivirus or antimalware programme. Therefore, I personally would use it only as an on-demand scanner to get a second opinion even though the premium version offers a real-time protection after all which is either paid for or realised through a giveaway license. Zemana Anti-Malware uses cloud engines for local scanning. Thus, no local definition updates are needed but logically a working internet connection. What kind of scan engines it uses in these days is kept rather secret. There seem to be several, but the company's information policy is modest and rather disinformative. I have the impression that they don't want to show their cards anymore contrary to the past. :yes: Furthermore, the current version 3.2.28 is listed as XP-compatible. This is simply nonsense and misleading. :angry: All versions 3.x start directly with an error message under Windows XP and are therefore not XP-compatible. The good is the much older version 2.74.2.150 still works flawlessly under Windows XP in these days which has just been tested again by me. :thumbup

Please also don't forget about rogue killer that still supports XP

https://www.adlice.com/roguekiller/

i have it on my system and I has in the past found malware that I was not aware of. I don't use the "Real Time" (they offer "Real Time" )but only the portable "On Demand" free scanner because I can not afford to purchase any license right now and it just works. You have the option to select a trial for personal use that will last for 1 month but that can be reset by a simple reedit and removal of all traces, but I don't do that anymore and I allow the nag to upgrade but my machine hasn't been infected in ages now because I usually look at the same old mundane nonsense every day. Ha!

I hope that at least gives folks another option.

Thanks for your suggestion! RogueKiller has been on my internal list for a long time. I installed it on my second Windows XP partition many months ago. This programme will also be the content of an article when the time is right. And that is unfortunately the problem. :)

^You're very welcome :)

I went ahead and removed the key ([HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adlice Software]) in regedit and removed all traces to started over this morning just for you and took some screen shots that might be of some help.

EDIT: Sorry about the late edit but I realized I didn't really give enough information and it bothers me to leave something incomplete. The custom scan only took me about 11 minutes with Rogue Killer being on full priority.

That's really nice of you to say, but what good are these screenshots going to do me? As I said, I installed RogueKiller on my computer many months ago. I know the interface very well, and your screenshots are unfortunately pretty meaningless without additional information. Much more important would be experience in using RogueKiller, information about the version you are using (portable or not, premium or free), your operating system, RAM and CPU utilisation, when RogueKiller is running, in terms of possible loss of performance, and in any case, to list both positive and negative points. smilie-denk-58.gif

Stating the duration of a custom scan without the amount of files examined is unfortunately completely meaningless. 11 min for 1 GB, 11 min for 10 GB, or 11 min for 100 GB would lead to completely different evaluations. smilie_denk_24.gif Anyway! Thanks for your good intentions! :)
