Malware Defender

@mods: I would like to nominate xiaolin for an orange Developer account on the forum.

 

A good idea IMO.

 

I agree

 

Me too!
I always wondered why xiaolin didn't have the "Developer" orange color.

 

+1 I agree

 

Hola Pete-sensei,

Well, maybe we at least got LWM et alia thinking about dressing Xiaolin in an orange t-shirt.

By the way, the forum won't accept a simple "+1" post -- at least, not for me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, back OnTopic (more or less) -- in Xiaolin's latest post, note that he totally ignored commenting on recent questions about a 64-bit version for MD. My OPINION-- there will never be a 64-bit version of MD.

AFAIK, the only stand-alone *classic HIPS* that is actively working on producing a majorly competent 64-bit version is Online Solutions Security Suite. Chutzpah? Time will tell.

 

Doesn't D+ falls in the x64 compatible "Classical HIPS"?

 

Given a no-router scenario, would running MD and Windows Firewall, properly configured, resolve that low level packet filtering issue? (I'm asking with specific interest in XP SP3 32 bit; expanding upon Vista and 7 would profit this thread.) Thanks.!

 

error sir,
don't forget OA (now emsisoft):
link 1
link 2

i'm not a fanboy, but actually OA is the best hips on x64 platform imho (D+ still does not intercept some things), and it is the only one that is actively working on building x64 version compatible with x86!
The right approach imo..

 

I stand (joyfully) corrected. Although I don't run OA at the moment, I AM an OA fanboy.

Re: Malware Defender 2.7.3.0002

Thanks Xiaolin, working fine.

 

Can MD's Network protection and Windows Firewall be ran together?

 

Yes they can, did so not long ago.

 

On my PC with enabled Win7 firewall and MD when running uTorrent always have BSOD...

 

Guys, does Malware Defender run properly under LUA with SRP - Windows 7 ultimate 32 bits?

 

I have used MD with SRP before and it was all fine.

 

And what about LUA?

 

i'm not using MD anymore cause i'm on x64..
anyway it does not work well with LUA, i used SuRun for elevating MD as administrator and it worked well

 

Thanks for the reply. Is SuRun running OK under Windows 7 32bit?

 

do not really know, i used it under xp pro sp3

 

Yes, and 64bit too.

 

But that's pointless, because Malware Defender is 32-bit only.

 

I haven't use Malware Defender extensively so I was wondering if it can block software programs from giving commands directly to the atapi.sys driver?
