August 21, 2009 at 02:03Ukrainian antivirus "Zillya!"
Recently discovered a completely new antivirus product. This Ukrainian "Potion" against viruses has been brewed recently. At the moment, in the form of a release, there is only a user version that can be used for free both at home and in non-profit organizations. The corporate version is getting ready for release.
The developer currently provides two products: Zillya! Antivirus and Zillya! Memorial.
Key features and features of Zillya! Antivirus are:
- free for all Ukrainians (as stated on the site), it is interesting to check whether it can be downloaded from the Internet with a non-Ukrainian IP address;
- resident monitor;
- anti-spyware, anti-adware;
- heuristic analysis;
- scanner of incoming traffic;
- Verification of Microsoft Office documents;
- task Manager;
- free Ukrainian-language support;
- a variety of settings.
Speaking of tech support. It is carried out through the contact form on the site, email, phone. Telephone support is also free and calls from landlines in Ukraine are free.
Free of charge this antivirus can use:
- home users;
- state educational institutions;
- charity organisations;
- religious communities;
- government departments;
- any non-profit organizations.
Zillya! Program The party is based on Zillya! Antivirus and allows you to evaluate the properties of the "potion" without first removing the already installed antivirus program. In essence, it is the same anti-virus scanner on demand as DrWeb CureIt.
On the official website it is indicated that at the moment the project still does not bring profit, which is obvious, since the commercial paid version is not yet ready. The anti-virus laboratory was created on the basis of one of the universities (it is not indicated which one), and developers also create a training course on anti-virus security. The developers also claim that their goal is to first obtain a high-quality domestic product, and when the project starts to make a profit, they plan to spend as much money as possible on improving the free product.
At the moment, "Potion" supports the system Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7.
That's all for now, that I found out on the official website of the project. On the Internet at the moment there are references to insufficient stability and speed of the antivirus, but good indicators for catching viruses when scanning on demand. For the time being, the strange “just for my own” policy is embarrassing, but on the whole it is clear that the developers have taken up the matter seriously and are anticipating a great future for their offspring. In the near future I am going to try this “potion” out of curiosity :)
