You should turn off protection once, just to see the warning display. The panel with the bandit image bumps upward every few seconds, to get your attention. The stylized happy people I mentioned switch to stances of alarm, pointing at the bandit. If there’s a problem, the status indicator turns red, and a sinister hat-wearing bandit appears on a red background, riding a wicked horse. F-Secure takes that convention to the next level. Just about every antivirus uses the convention that green means protection is copacetic while red indicates a problem. The rest of the window holds stylized images of trees, and of people enjoying their mobile devices. Below that is a Viruses & Threats panel holding the all-important Scan button, and a list of recent events occupies the bottom right corner. In the current version, the left-rail menu disappears into a three-line menu icon at top left. A button to scan the system and a link to settings round out the old display, leaving plenty of whitespace. For the last few years, it used a minimalist display, with a simple two-item menu at left and security status notification dominating the rest of the main window. Long-time F-Secure aficionados will notice a big change in the product’s appearance. Once that’s done, it’s ready to start protecting your PC. Getting Started With F-Secure Anti-VirusĪfter a quick install, F-Secure automatically updates its antivirus definitions.
