Hmmm I wonder if it checked itself for any issues it looks for.McAfee was founded in 1987 and is headquartered in Santa Clara, California. Ĥ) Chromebooks run on a modified unix operating system which viruses and malware cannot penetrate.ĥ) There is no hard drive in a Chromebook - Chromebooks use flash memory to start the operating system and then Chrome. I found 2 harmful sites, 1 harmful siteģ) Most files are stored on the cloud and only a few files are stored on the internal memory of the laptop. I've been using my Chromebook and obviously Chrome for over 5 years. With that proved here is a link about malware and virus penetration: Ģ) Install the product and let it do the scan on your Chromebook. This is just absolutely not true for the money you want for this product to only get partial information that makes sense or is really useful to us Chrome users.īefore you think I'm steering you wrong, and proving wrong that it's a waste of money, do the following:ġ) Google 'what operating system does Chromebooks run" You will see, Chrome OS, which is what Google named their modified Ubuntu Unix operating system. Your assessment of Guardio needed on Chromebook as an extension to protect against malware, information leaks, and attempts to harm your hard drive. There is none - just another product trying to get you to spend you money for really not useful information from its scan. I recommend you stop selling this product and stop taking advantage of those who don't know best. I liked least about this softwad=er was that this was an additional cost.Ĭomentarios: I took the time to really evaluate this project as you have read. Either way, I was getting pounded with messages in the right hand corner os my workspace. I was ticked off that this wasn't included in my McAfee product but maybe someone m9issed this need. As an end-user, I was interested in this because this fit a need of mine. This may seem to be an obvious answer, it works! Why do I need another product? Someone forgot to include this functionality in McAfee or someone in McAfee cleverly decided to include this functionality? or, someone realized this was an untouched market need. What do I like the most about Guardio? I like the fact that it works. Guardio saw this as a problem and filled the need/solved my problem. I asked my email system to notify me of new emails when suddenly I don't recall whether the chicken or egg came first, but I was suddenly inundated with messages that I could no longer get any work done, I had messages after messages coming across my workspace so that all I did was answer the messages/advertisements and not able to get work done. Comentarios: Guardio took care of a problem that either suddenly became a problem. ![]()
