    With CIS running when you launch a browser, check with SysInternals ProcessExplorer (Find / Find Handle or DLL) and search for mbae.dll. Is it injected in the browser process space?

    Thanks, pbust, for the reply. I'll keep watching to see if compatibility can be accomplished at some future point. :thumb:

    Yes, with CIS HIPS in Paranoid or Clean PC the shielded IExplorer, Opera and Firefox got this injection.

    Cool, thanks for confirming. Last I heard from the Comodo guys a while back they were going to fix it so I guess it was fixed already. I will take it out of the incompatibility list. Thanks again!

    Does this issue affects also to chrome?
    It's also happens with Webroot SecureAnywhere 2104?

    will there be a free version with at least browser protection, win script host... the basics?

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    WSA's IdentityProtection affects IE and FF by default AFAIK. As for 2014, here's Joe's answer:
    https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=2285809&postcount=95

    There will be some type of freemium model, but details are not yet final. In addition everyone who participates and provides valuable feedback during the beta here at Wilders and Malwarebytes forum will get a free license.

    My Shielded Applications number still doesn't go down when I close Chrome. Is that still a bug or is it just affecting me?

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    FYI

    So i booted up my computer, no MBAE icon in taskbar. Went to task manager and stopped process, then went to start menu clicked on icon and MBAE icon showed up in taskbar again, so this works.

    Did you add mbae-test.exe to EMET?

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    I'm assuming the screenie means that the exploit test was not blocked by emet? Can you please also post a screenshot of processexplorer when this happens.

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    I just tried and EMET 4 blocks succesfully, when mbae-test.exe is added.

    So, then security software with exploit protection that protects the major browsers, pdf readers, media players etc but not mbae-test.exe will automatically fail the test? That would mean your comparison on Youtube is an unfair and not exactly a good test.

    I also tried to copy the test to a computer without Anti-Exploit installed, but when I tried to run it, it said some DLL was missing. Do you plan on releasing the test separately?

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    I'm using WSA 2014, Malwarebytes Anti-exploit and Hitman pro alert with chrome and I haven notice any problem, this is why I'm asking, What kind of issues should I have with this combination?
    Everything seems to be working fine

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    Yes you're right, I noticed that same thing after making the video. But then I also tested with mbae-test.exe renamed as %ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe and the results were the same. You can try this yourself.

    I'm guessing the missing DLLs are from the Visual C++ debug runtimes. You can download them from here:
    http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/462633/Debug-DLLs-rar.html

    EDIT: changed URL to point to a file sharer that doesn't require installation of crappy Download Manager.

    Issues with WSA detailed here:
    https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=2285600&postcount=92

    Joe from Webroot confirmed they will fix it after releasing WSA 2014:
    At this point, the initial 2014 release is locked down but we should be able to get this into the first update.

    Can you double-check to see if the issue is resolved in your install of WSA?

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    I don't have FF installed but with IE, seems to work OK.
    I have closed and opened IE several times:
    1) IE appears protected in the M antiexploit log
    2) The lock appears in the WSA icon indicating that is protecting IE
    3) Hitman pro alert popup appears.
    4) Not a single alert, popup, log... or anything that could indicate a conflict.

    Bug: The MAE log doesn't update when I have opened several times IE, that means that if I open and close 4 times IE the log will only create a entry the first time. But if I clear the log between each iteration it will create a new entry.

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    Can you check the following:

    1- While having both WSA and MBAE running, open IE
    2- Use the Find option within ProcessExplorer to look for mbae.dll

    Does mbae.dll show up under the IE process space?

    You are right, it doesn't appear under IE process space, it works only when I disable WSA protection. But it works correctly, apparently in chrome.

    WSA is about to deploy a new version of Identity shield on WSA 2014, I will try again once it's released

    Re: Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit 0.09.4.1000

    I seem to remember a similar situation under XP with EMET4. It seems to block the exploit but crashes the application before it can show the EMET alert. But under Win7 it should work ok.
