Threatfire Gave Me Damp Results

I wrote in an earlier post about Threatfire and how it seemed like a useful program to have, in the fight against evil malware attempting to take over the world, my computer.
Well it turns out after using it just under two weeks I am less than impressed by its results. Six suspicious activities blocked and two Malware threats stopped. Wow! Not impressive by any stretch of the imagination and the results didn’t change since day two.
So I have removed it from my computer and I am now not recommending it at all. If you have downloaded it and have better results than me, well let me know. I am always willing to give most things a second chance, especially as Threatfire is made by PC Tools, who made the excellent Spyware Doctor.
It was a free program, and unfortunately it gave free program results for me. Come here Avast, oh I’ve been neglecting you haven’t I, fancy some juicy Trojan’s to batter into oblivion?
