    I installed Trusteer on my laptop. No problems were encountered, and I do not think it is heavy. Running fine so far. Looks like a good addition to security when on an unsecured WIFI.

    Thanks for the information. I wondered the same things as JerryM did. As well, I have used the KIS and Avast safe zone and seems to work fine. I'm kind of a "don't slow my pc down" fanatic and KIS does somewhat. Seems like Bitdefender's new release has something similar but don't recall the name. I will try Trusteer!:thumb:

    I installed it on my PC's virtualized drive to give it a test drive and it seemed to be rather heavy on RAM. Also, it didn't seem to be compatible with Sandboxie. Anyone else have that experience?

    Lastly, how do you uninstall it? Because I was virtualized it wasn't a problem this time -- a reboot took care of everything. However, I didn't really see a standard uninstaller.

    I went to the trusteer.com site to read up on the various threats/attacks, and it appears to me that the end user must already be infected with some malware for the attacks to succeed (except in the social engineering phishing example):

    Not only that, TR is able to block and clean the computer of almost any known banking malware. It's another layer of security.
     

  12. I really doubt that.

    Looks like you use Trusteer Rapport -- what's your memory consumption look like for this app?

    Also, don't know if you've ever tried to uninstall it, but what's the procedure for that?

    On XP = 30000k.

    I think you need a special unistall tool? But they do have a 'real' support desk. Complete with tickets & follow ups.

    About what I thought. That sounds pretty heavy - and it's probably runs all the time.

    Yes. But any program's a lot lighter than a browser.

    That's probably true. But other than for my browser, I don't have another app that uses anywhere near the amount of RAM. My firewall might be close, but still not the amount that Trusteer Rapport does.

    I used Trusteer for about a month. I gave it time to settle in. Average ram usage was 90MB. With Chrome open I use more but when I close its gone. Trusteer is running all the time.

    Well I have plenty of RAM, and since it doesn't use almost the CPU I don't notice any slowdown. It uses around 26MB of RAM, I also guess that it will depend on how many sites do your protect, I just add banks, shops (ebay), and sites with personal info, LinkedIn...

    You can uninstall it from Add/remove programs (control panel)

    I also use with Shadow Defender in the same way as you do when banking/shopping online, with the addition of a sandoxed browser (via Sandboxie), plus KeyScrambler Premium for obvious reasons. I also have Comodo Firewall with Defence+ on Paranoid Mode (when banking/shopping online only, Safe Mode for everything else). Also Avast free version and MBAM with both filesystem and website blocking features enabled.

    I'm talking about pure overkill and paranoia! :D

    Do you have any evidence, any argument or you are just playing the troll role?

    It check the IP for each website you want to protect to be the same that they have in the database, protection against DNS spoffing and much more.

    Does the KIS Safe Banking Mode work with X64 systems?

    Yes. That is what I am using on my desktop.
