    Agreed!
    IMHO a lot of his videos are trash. He doesn't research the products before he reviews and that annoys the hell out of me. In a couple of his videos he admits to this.
    Unless they are Comodo reviews then he understands how to use it.
    Go figure. :rolleyes:

    I don't use MD. Though I have been contemplating on whether or not to implement it in my new machine. So you can consider me as potential user seeing this review.
    Also yes products do fail.

    I'm just stating from my observation of watching his videos in the past that he does not research the products that he reviews. Other reviewers read up on the product, present the features and start the test. A majority of the time he does not!

    Yes i do understand there is no perfect security app otherwise everybody would use it and this forum would be empty!

    Anyways this is going OT.

    Thanks

    Like the man said, if you run two HIPS together you've a good chance you'll see problems.

    It would be advisable to post your full setup (including O/S details) then to see if anybody has any suggestions as to what the conflict may be.

    Do you have mdhook.dll disabled? If not you may want to try disabling it (you can check in tools>options>protection).

    Mantra do you use v.2.6 ?

    From experience and previous discussions here, the only versions that freeze PC after leaving learning mode are the patched ones, i.e. use a crack meant for previous versions to patch the current executable.
