Free HIPS apps compatible with 7 x64?

Probably true... I too would like some simple antiexecutable like PG free for Win7x64, but it seems all HIPS are going 32bit only... And i don't want to use Comodo.

 

what about AppGuard?is it compatible?

 

Nope, i just checked. Besides i 'd like something more classical. You know, the usual pop up asking you "abc.exe wants to run, allow or deny".

 

comodo and threatfire

 

I am not changing firewall as long as i am in Win7 and Sphinx is up and running (because unfortunately i later discovered that the firewall has online activation <sigh>).

Finally i found a firewall solution that has never compatibility issues, because uses the native windows engine and runs light as a feather and smooth as silk.

Threatfire is too "intelligent" to do the dumb classical HIPS and i usually encounter bugs sooner or later.

 

Spyware Terminator is said to have a Windows 7 and 64 bit verison available later this year.

 

i forgot about this one

 

what about about privatefirewall it has a hips engine
http://www.privatefirewall.com/
Desktop Security from Privacyware - Windows 7 & Vista Compatible!

 

Built-in UAC, set to max settings.

 

Same goes for me. I really like the Sphinx Firewall Control

 

Good (and wise) choice for you both If you guys get adventurous, you might try manually configuring the firewall rules in the Advanced security panel, then you won't even need Sphynx.
