John, John, that isn't an "article" in the sense of a piece of independent
journalism, and it isn't "freeware" in the sense of free software which can
perform useful functions. Read the small print at the footer:
=========================================

promotion for a FREE Scanguard security scan using their advanted
antimalware engines, in order to use the advanced features you must upgrade

=========================================
Emphasis as in original!
Why would you want to trust an unknown piece of demoware, which we can
assume will inevitably diagnose huge security risks on your PC as a bait to
buy into the paid-for "premium plan", when there are som many alternatives
available, independently reviewed and assessed over many years, many at nil
cost?
No, I have never heard of this software, nor its producer, which in itself
is a warning flag for me. If you insist, I will look for a suitable
bargepole with which you could touch it!

I have seen this article several times in the last three or four weeks:

Does anyone have any knowledge and opinion about the value of this freeware?
