I just did the survey and it seemed to be asking if I would recommend it to a non-tech user. I said no because the results still often require technical expertise. A good example is the many threads about the end of life 2003 PowerPoint viewer. The program flags it and if you do the repair you get the 2007 viewer but the old viewer remains in place. One had to find it an manually delete it. The solutions offered are often like that. It would be nice if the solid solutions could be shown and more complicated ones either rated or hidden unless asked for. Similalrly for end of life problems. Often these are not much of a risk because of the ever decreasing number of them in use. Hackers go after the big market share items to maximize their return. Perhaps list them but in a seperate category that does not muddy up the security waters. |

I myself perform maintenance activities by using TeamViewer for family members who haven't sufficient knowledge. I do not consider myself as an expert but have enough experience to perform software updates and work with PSI. And in case I run into troubles there is this Forum with a lot of experienced users and Secunia experts who help me to solve my problems. -- PC: JJ Computer Services Intel Core I3 2100 3.1Ghz DDR3 Kingston ValueRam 4GB 1333 Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits SP1 Secunia PSI 3.0 v. 3.0.0.6005 Internet Explorer 9 Mozilla Firefox 20.0.1NL Laptop: MSI GT780DX Intel Core I5-2450 DDR3 RAM 6GB Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits SP1 Secunia PSI 3.0 v. 3.0.0.6005 Internet Explorer 10 Mozilla Firefox 20.0.1NL |
