I've gave up on EMET some time ago... Unpredictable events, troubles, messes... and we never think the culprit will be EMET...
A Wilders member may -or Not- handle/tolerate EMET problems. -BUT- For many Average Home Users EMET turned into a disaster...
works great on my 7 64bit I discover it on Addictivetips http://www.addictivetips.com/window...-virtual-environment-protect-it-from-malware/ I was searchin' a good virtualizer similar to Returnil but without AV and other no basic features, simple for tryin' software on my pc not for security purpose, TTF is what i nedd and is free for personal use, great. Undoubtedly better than Wondershare Time Freeze (Pay), and TTF is better than WTF as abbreviation too
Bump Version update 1.2.0.120(Jan. 02, 2012) Added float toolbar to show protection mode. Remove the free limition. Now it is free for any users. Free for any users, maybe they really will make it open source EDIT: I tried it and there is still no floating toolbar. Hmm
Did you enable the checkbox "Show toolbar on Desktop for Frozen Mode"? Code: Added float toolbar to show protection mode ([I][U]this option is off as default[/U][/I], please enable the option and when Frozen mode is on, the toolbar will be shown on your desktop). It seems that is foreseen later to boot Windows with active protection.
Source? Does anyone of you experiences this. I've read it at techsupportalert -http://www.techsupportalert.com/freeware-forum/66619-post22.html
I have installed the latest version on XP and everything was fine. No problems, no bugs, no slowdowns, no nothing. Everything worked like it was supposed to. I installed RealDownloader and after reboot no sign of it. Excellent software, light, effective, nice interface and free. Perfect! I didn't try the file protection feature, but never tried it with Wondershare either
Wow Night_Raven, that's an eye-opener for sure! Based on your tests it seems to me that Shadow Defender is the 'no-brainer' light-virtualization app of choice (based soley on security considerations).
This italian site: http://www.megalab.it/7720/congela-le-modifiche-al-tuo-sistema-operativo-con-toolwiz-time-freeze warns that Toolwxi is not yet able to protect by most dangerous rootkits.
It's old news that virtualization software can't protect against rootkits. Returnil use an AV and anti-executable to protect against this, while Wondershare Time Freeze is also vulnerable. I use Toolwiz Time Freeze for trying out new software. But maybe the developers will improve this tool. I'm hoping for that to happen.
+1 I think this is the main purpose of the software. But, in some sites, the tool is classified as being an antivirus software
When I searched for Toolwiz on softpedia it shows 0 results. But using google it took me here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Toolwiz-Time-Freeze.shtml
Is ToolWiz TIme Freeze safe to use or could be spyware in disguise? It looks like stolen code from Shadow Defender?
Why does it looks like a stolen code from Shadow Defender? And why is it a spyware in disguise? Do you even read the rest of this thread? According to James, they developed TimeFreeze all by themselves. BTW, seems like the next release will be able to start timefreeze protection automatically at startup. From here -http://forums.toolwiz.com/topic/automatic-start-timefreeze-protection-in-startup
I'd use it and shadowdefender if I could remember to turn it off when trying to save things to my laptop. Really a pain when I download and install something then forget I'm in shadowmode.
Can I please ask someone who is experienced in testing software to see if Time Freeze by Toolwiz sends any data and information to their server and what exactly it may be doing in the background? Thanks, would really appreciate it.
Is anyone here able to comment as to how this compares to Retunil and Shadow Defender feature-wise and performance-wise? Thanks, Wendi
