Panda Cloud Free Antivirus, currently at version 1.4, changes a bit the classic concept of antivirus. Usually antivirus softwares connected to the network to update the signature files from time to time, sometimes once a day. Cloud Panda breaks this paradigm and they propose the use of the Internet connection to have upgraded our equipment at all times.
So, it is an antivirus that would not recommend for computers that are not always connected to the Internet. If we have no connection to the Cloud Panda makes no sense.
This issue has its advantages over traditional antivirus and also its drawbacks. Take the case of a computer that connects to the network from time to time, we do not use it every day, but whenever we do have an Internet connection.
