Ah, OK. So it's a driver and a service. Anyway, it was pretty stable.

Yes, but I can use both my cores and don't have to reserve one for my
virus-scanner. From my point of view, Windows is still worse.

e.g. you can't overwrite a file, when it is executed.
You can't open a file when another application writes in it (how am a I
