But here is where the clear value of WP trumps the extra functions of AnVir.

If they were priced comparably, and if both offered lifetime licenses with lifetime free updates, AnVir would be my choice – WinPatrol would be duplicative in my experience.

In addition, the traditional drop down menus that are fixed in the menu bar (file/processes/tools/view/help) give you access to much more OS functions than WP Plus.Īs gatekeepers for undesired processes being installed on your computer, both programs perform well and at one time or another, running them individually, they have both warned me when a website tried to install something I wasn’t aware of and didn’t want.

The tools menu has a function called Tweaker for Windows, and gives you six screens with over 60 check boxes, plus a dozen additional drop down menus for function control, just to enhance the performance of your computer. Granted, it is a task manager and thus is not totally amenable to side by side comparison with WP – AnVir will replace Windows Task Manager if you want – but the control it gives over the OS is impressive. but this is where AnVir really separates itself from WP. While AnVir has a tutorial that is accessible from the help screen, it isn’t that helpful to find specific functions, and overall AnVir takes a bit more guesswork to figure out some functions.īoth programs allow for tweaking of Windows with things like delayed startup, control scheduled tasks, etc.

WP has short descriptions explaining the function of each screen which are not overly wordy and are surprisingly useful. WP does not have a main screen, and overall the GUI feels cumbersome and archaic, it is definitely ready for a revision.

AnVir has nothing similar.Īs far as GUI, both are fairly complicated, but AnVir’s has familiar drop down menus and takes just minutes to get comfortable with, plus its main screen is fairly intuitive and is configurable with different processes. This is very useful if you are interested in improving performance and willing to spend a few moments linking from WP to the website to do your due diligence. WP Plus gives access to an online database that tells you what the process is for, how safe it is, and whether you can turn it off. Not a critical warning perhaps, but AnVir doesn’t seem to notice.

However, WP first alerts when a program has been deleted or removed, and WP tells me when AVG, the current anti-virus program I’m running, downloads updates. I don’t know how critical the timing is for alerts, but there is clearly a longer delay for WP. When it comes to alerts for program changes, AnVir nearly always notifies me first – often, if I check “no” when it asks if I want to allow the process, WP never even opens. Both give me peace of mind knowing that I get alerted to program changes and thus any malware changes are brought to my attention and for that alone I would pay for either one. I have been running both programs on XP and Windows 7.

I have to state up front that my bias is toward WP and BillP, even though I like the overall functions of AnVir as much or better single individual developer, niche product that fills a real (as opposed to fanciful or empty) need, lifetime license with free updates, may be installed on multiple personal computers, no adware (see post #12), very strong developer support, and so on. They are very different in what they do, but for protection from malware, they offer similar performance. Having spent several weeks running AnVir Task Manager Pro and WinPatrol Plus side by side, here are some of my thoughts about how they compare in the areas where they share similar functions.
