VMS10 has been pretty stable .. can you give me a bit more to go on ?

Think Chris123 may be referring to VMS10 being a bit of a resource hog when downloading definition updates, but hey nearly all AV is like that. Also I found initially slow on boot-up and close down, but with a couple of tweaks ie. in general settings change the default system start up to extra performance soon rectified this. Also I found this version of VMS10 stable, the improved detection rate and less false positives with the use of Trend Micro, so overall very impressed.

Resource hog ?

Resource hog ?

Resource hog as in when its downloading updates or running a scan it uses a lot of the system resources and can make the system crawl or become unresponsive till updates have been installed.......(",)
