    I installed it, and it seems to be working fine. I think this is something that should be integrated with ERP, and also give the option to install as a stand alone product.

    Only if you allow it to be disabled, otherwise the whole tool is rendered useless.

    @Cutting_Edgetech

    We'll discuss it soon but it may be better to leave the program standalone, as a kernel-mode driver can be loaded only if the executable is allowed to execute.

    It will be released in few days also another real-time monitoring program used to block the loading of DLL files, that has more chance that will then be integrated in ERP.

    @Nebulus

    Sure, it can be disabled. When Driver Radar Pro is first installed, it asks you in the "Configuration Wizard" to use "Recommended Settings" or "Custom Settings", if you select "Custom Settings" you can uncheck the option used to whitelist all .sys files present in \drivers\ folder, example http://s29.postimg.org/d7dxn79ud/drp2.png

    A did come across a problem where Driver pro slowed down the quick launching and exiting of several videos one after another with the vga.dll notification.

    I am using KMPlayer.

    Yes i know i could turn off balloon hints globally but i was wondering if i could leave it on and just add the vga.dll to a blacklist of no notifications?

    Is that a feature that could be added?

    @BoerenkoolMetWorst

    Sorry for the delay, I didn't notice the last post in the 1st page :)

    Not at the moment, we may create software that makes use of its technology for real-time monitoring and protection.

    Not officially, I post most news in our Twitter account.

    I should create a newsletter that can be used to alert users when something new is created or updated.

    I installed drp and it actually blocked erp from loading which gave me the driver error again, so I had to whitelist the driver.
    I really like it alot, thanks

    Thanks :) it would be nice if changelogs can be included as well.
    Btw, the free tools page versions may not be correct. It shows v1.0 for Kernel Mode Drivers Manager, but the details page shows v1.1:

    I can smell a behavior blocker (with the same ease of use as ERP) coming up. :D

    I uploaded a new build that can be downloaded from here:
    http://downloads.novirusthanks.org/files/DrvRadarPro_Setup2.exe

    I fixed a small bug when deleting an item from the whitelist, and I added the option to exclude the notification messages when a specific driver file is blocked or allowed.

    Uninstall the old version and then install this new version, a reboot is not needed.

    @BoerenkoolMetWorst

    I will correct the version numbers tomorrow, thanks for letting me know :)

    Can you add a way to backup/restore your whitelist?

    Very light!

    I love the latest version since it scans and whitelists the system drivers

    @ NoVirusThanks

    DRP is a valid defense against kernel mode rootkits on 64-bit systems?

    Thanks for the feedbacks guys :)

    I uploaded a new build that can be downloaded from here:
    http://downloads.novirusthanks.org/files/DrvRadarPro_Setup2.exe

    What's New:

    + Optimized the About window
    + Added option to Import/Export the whitelist

    @Sampei Nihira

    It denies by default all not-whitelisted kernel-mode drivers from being loaded in the system, including rootkits.

    You can test it by running Sysinternals Process Explorer 64-bit, its kernel-mode driver will be blocked (if it is not present in the whitelist).
