VoodooShield/Cyberlock

Yeah, I thought everyone knew that... read the original thread I posted above... it was quite interesting .

I am just trying to do the right thing and trying to be the grown up.

 

It's kinda hard as MalwareTips is not a Trustworthy Security Forum even if you want to call it that. I quit along time ago as all they want to do is argue and there is no constructive conversations.

 

One last thing hjlbx,

https://malwaretips.com/threads/com...odooshield-autopilot.64977/page-8#post-559986

If someone is going to test VS as an Anti-Executable, then they need to test it in one of the Anti-Executable modes (Smart or Always ON)... NOT AUTOPILOT.

 

Not a joke but a Trojan framework. Looks like someone is testing a new backdoor. Just FYI here that VS got it correct. Sorry if this has been stated earlier as don't have time to read whole new posts but wanted you to know that the program is right.

 

ummmmm...the argument was not so hot... it was less wild than the one Dan had with me

Anyway, this debate shouldn't even started because VS and UAC have not the same function and purposes, they complement each other.

btw, Littlebits was super-mod so he didn't need the help of the admins, i think he banned you himself lol

Come on guys...because you had bad experience so all is wrong ? seriously?!

 

Mmmmm, I felt that is some things wrong with hem !!

Just now I understand why he replied to me like that !!!!

I just know how others feel about MalwareTips and it's not good so it's not just me. I remember when the some members were using unauthorized versions of WSA and everyone thought is was for free and I got them shut down and they didn't work anymore. So that's why I say they are untrustworthy (scammers) nothing is free in this world.

 

Remember im still mod there , so you basically insult me to be as scammer TH ?

 

To be fair and honest, i remember this too, and also approached the staff about it, as it was not right, and not just with this product, and it got swept under the rug and allowed as long as it was not obvious on the main board.

Stating the whole site is nothing but scammers and problem makers is not accurate though, as there are some really good people still over there. The issue you had and the ones i and many have with the site is how the Admin run the place, many times double standards are common, site sponsorship and traffic take precedence over it all.

 

What the truth hurts? Do you deny the use of unauthorized versions of WSA on Malwaretips and promoting the use of them?

 

Well in short it's scamming. Or put it this way unauthorized useage of WSA which is scamming Webroot right?

 

Im just stating not everyone took advantage of that and or was involved, so calling them all that is a little much, meaning if it was directed at the staff as should be for allowing it, and not all users, no one would claim otherwise what you have stated. I am in agreement with you that the site is not trustworthy, as many things are allowed that should not be.

 

honestly i don't even care but also I don't even remember how the version was made available, can you refresh my memory?

 

Thanks it was the only point I wanted to make.

 

Your a mod go look for it or them on that site.

 

This is just getting silly now.

Let's just all wait until the results from the large scale AVLab test is released, that will determine who is right and who is wrong... I believe there are 50 or so security products involved, and I think it will be released in the next two weeks.

 

@VoodooShield

I'm okay with you defending your product. Since you worked hard for many years improving it. However, try that your "defense" doesn't cross the border of personally attacking someone. As I feel that doing so would make some users question whether you can receive criticism. You can say that what was stated was untrue or incorrect, and doing so in a way that is respectful will help you and all your users.

@Triple Helix
Almost all sites, be it security forums or not, can have it shares of problematic users. Generalizing them all isn't nice.

 

But the Forum Admins didn't do anything to stop it. So I said my piece, believe what you want I'm done with this topic.

 

I do my best to stick to the facts and limit personal attacks as much as possible, so I apologize if I personally attacked anyone... that is not my intention. But sometimes, in order to get to the truth, there is relevant information that people need to be aware of. For example, it is extremely relevant that hjlbx is new to the security space.

Believe me, if I start personally attacking hjlbx, it is going to be a bloodbath.

 

@Triple Helix it is you that just throw insults and accusations that the staff intentionally and knowingly put the version, show me your proof, if you don't have any , just stay quiet !

You know, i'm the one who largely promote WSA in MT... it is upsetting to be treated as a scammer; i won't forget this one TH. believe me !

 

Hello,

@Iangh , well said. Most of the problem stems from engineers not being good at creating a usable product, and UX costs $$$, it's out of reach economically of the vast majority of developers. UX and software development are different disciplines, but as the liability increases usability has to follow in lockstep with feature set if a product is going to be successful.

Nowadays running a myriad of security products on the same PC reminds me of a drug interaction situation, every application attempts to exert full control and this usually results in an overall less secure endpoint. It's unfortunate that vendors have to test these sort of interactions and educate their user base, but it's the current state of things in the market.

I think in the average prospects mind VS is going to get the short end of the stick the vast majority of the time because the other AV products properly and clearly articulate their operation and benefit, which means VS gets hammered whether right or wrong. There may be one video I've seen on VS that does a fair job of explaining the concept (Britec 2014), but all others I've viewed give me the same amateur feel as the test video some here are wound up about. Small developers can't outspend or outmarket the big players, but they can outmaneuver them by viewing criticism as an opportunity for improvement (while developing another layer on top of their thick skin) .

@VoodooShield , since I see you are online can you tell me the expected wait time for my product keys for my purchase? I ordered yesterday and have yet to receive anything other than a payment confirmation. Thanks.

 

Hi, thank you for your support! You can actually just use the email address and password that you created when you purchased VS to register it. If you have any problems, please email me at support at voodooshield.com, and I will make sure your account is working correctly. Thanks again!

 

Hello,

@VoodooShield , thanks for the information, I look forward to putting VS through the paces.

 

@VoodooShield I am using version 3.45 beta and I have noticed that even though I have "allowed" a powershell script to be run, every time I run the command manually from cmd , VS prompts me to "allow" the action. I am using "smart mode". Is that a known bug or I am doing something really stupid here?

c:\windows\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -file "f:\xxxxxx.ps1"
