First of all, you go to the Internet address specified in the cardboard box, registers and enters his product key. Then you can install on my license up to 3 devices, which are subsequently administered via the account at F-Secure. So I initially selected my computer without disabling my existing Kaspersky antivirus. Normally, security software blocked each other and I wanted to see how F-Secure händelt that.
So you first downloads the installer that a clean up tool installed then. After the program was finished with the investigation, the program was actually downloaded / installed. It recognized my F-Secure Kaspersky virus program, pointing out that first Kaspersky must be uninstalled. This was first of all directly from the F-Secure surface with one click. However, then came an error message that Kaspersky can not be uninstalled automatically. This was followed by an invitation, Kaspersky manually uninstall. The Control / Program Manager went on .... and no longer available Kaspersky? So window again and lo and behold: for "retry" click on the program went on to restart the PC and then was F-Secure successfully installed. Looked again and Kaspersky was actually completely removed.
Now you can make various settings and scans, such as setting up accounts, set parental controls, Safe-Search for the Web browser enable (works with Google together and it works well with my Mozilla Firefoux), firewall settings and so on. Everything easily and simply.
After that I went back to install my android phone to the F-Secure website. So logged in again, then "Add Device", "Android" select, enter phone number and you will receive an SMS with the App Store linking Then there simply load the program onto the phone and install. In my view, incidentally, was correct. Then enter the security key (you get on the F-Secure Web site set up the smartphone or again sent as SMS) and finished the whole thing. Now you can still see an anti-theft and some other parameters to set up their own ideas (lock in case of loss smartphone, locate, delete data, etc.).
Conclusion
Honestly I was a little surprised that the entire installation (computer, Android few minutes about half an hour) was total so simple and straightforward. I had at least expected complications, but up on the short error message that I had to uninstall Kaspersky manually, which still agreed not even in principle, there were zero problems. Neither PC nor smartphone. Since I am a professional in PC programming etc. does not necessarily mean that is quite useful when a program is so easy to handle. I think most users out there feel the same way. If only all the programs would function so easily. The price I find adequate for 3 devices and you can add additional charge another device on the official site. Since F-Secure is also a little cheaper and a little variable in the choice of my devices (when my Kaspersky) I'll probably stay at F-Secure.
How secure F-Secure is then ultimately, of course, I can not say at the moment, but I will add my review accordingly in case something happens.
Supplement 02.12.2014
I had to find that F-Secure apparently has more problems with the Internet Banking, as Kaspersky. Similar to the program, automatically F-Secure in the banking mode once my a site like Paypal, or for that matter, his homeland Bank visited. Unfortunately, the page reproduction smears from then. Since I did not happen at Kaspersky. While there is the possibility to manually turn off the Internet security on a faded strip, just should not indeed be the meaning and purpose of the exercise.
