Am getting these two errors on Reboot when I use the Global Hook Protection. Taskswitch is a Microsoft pgm and ccapp is NIS 2004

Welcome to DiamondCS Process Guard.
This program does not need to be running for your system to be protected.

Simply add taskswitch.exe and ccapp.exe to the protection list, and for their OPTIONS, turn on "Allow Global Hooks" :)
The basic idea is that you want to block ALL hooks EXCEPT for the ones that you specifically allow.

Yes we've extended the helpfile quite a bit with this release, please take some time to read through it - not just because it will answer most of your existing questions, but also because it will let you know and raise your awareness about many things you may otherwise not know about :)

99% of people can run without the hook blocking option 99% of the time ;D

You mean you went to all that effort for a 0.01% possibility? Wow!

I also hit a Driver/Services block when activating AOL 9.0 Optimized...Windows/System32/Services.exe. Figured that one out all on my own. ;D
