    I never tried it. What SS is about ? I'll try it in case it does kernel stuff, but in case this is usermode proxy I'll do not, definitely. Contradicts my religion :)

    There was a conflict in an earlier edition of Online Armor, which was resolved by the Tallemu guys.

    I'll take another look to check there are no new issues. Could you advise what OS you are using, and which components of OA you have enabled?

    Best regards,

    Kris.

    After taking a look at version 130 of OA, I experienced some 'hanging' during the period that OA is learning the various SafeSpace components. There seemed to be numerous prompts for the WaveHost processes. Nothing actually failed - it just took a while for the prompts to come through.

    After a few minutes of allowing the prompts, they ceased, and launching applications in SafeSpace became much more responsive, to a level I would expect.

    Perhaps if you set all the SafeSpace entries to 'trusted' in the Programs view of the OA console, it may help with your performance issues? Let me know if you are still having issues.

    Best regards,

    Kris.

    I am using XP SP2, SS and OA free mainly default settings. I marked all SS processes trsuted in OA.

    Hangs are still there, I use Opera mainly. All in a snapshot of Eaz-Fix.

    There are both kernel mode and user mode components in SafeSpace.

    Hi Alex.

    Do you get the same problems if you disable Online Armor? I'd like to understand if OA is blocking anything from running.
