help please:configuring boclean

At last I have installed and trying boclean.No problems so far.But I am not sure about one setting which comes checked by default.Automatic cleanup of winsock connectivity.
If bo clean finds a malware and cleans winsock I may not connect to internet anymore,or is it the other way.PLEASE!!!

 

That happened to me when I used it.
I don't remember the settings now, but I do know that that winsock setting can cause problems.

 

Thank you very much.Now I feel better after reading this.I will do as you suggested.

 

Hi cet

I agree with LowWaterMark. That is what I advise my users too

Detailed configuration description

 

For an eternity i been wanting to try this app and test it against some memory intrusion/resident malware samples or POC.

Can anyone direct my attention where i can test this latest BoClean and exactly what gives it such a positive result when most users say it does nothing but sits still untill acted on by some memory element that could be a malware intrusion.

Thanks in advance, and can this compliment or hinder a HIPS or even clash between them. Mine happens to be EQS and i don't dare part with it come ice or flood waters seeing as it has exceptional strength in coverages from files, to registry, to applications and the like.

Thansk in advance for any useful recommendations or data that would encourage use of it with my present set up.

I don't think you can test POC's, since BOClean is blacklist based (Or at least it was, last time I checked)...

 

This is just my opinion OK? I don't discount or criticise BoClean's developer and yes i have read years of rave reviews of this app before.

But it absolutely could use, just IMO, a total overhaul and a more in-depth examination on it's stability.

It just doesn't react as i would expect a simple little app like this to perform. I notice some distortions that detract from how i knw it would normally perform, thats all.

Others seem to have no issues at all, maybe it's Vista compatibility thats affecting it on my XP, i simply cannot and am without explaination why this app time and again gives me difficulty from the GUI to sometimes (not often) it's operation.

One of these days just like snoopfree and other apps like ProSec that just wouldn't meld in unison as expected, that magic version is going to surface.

Heh: BOC can short circuit stuff if not careful: See advice from LWM above a succint summary of Kevin's comments in that thread

Just for the attitude alone : "I think Bill Gates is a pederast" just full of Gems lol.

For the record: I have deleted my previous posted message.
After having done some thinking, I thought that would be better.
I do apologize !

 

I never quit. I waited over a year for ProSec AND snoopfree to finally fashion a useful version and i'll wait this one out too if i have to.
