    @mood Yes, this was a spelling mistake.

    @Rasheed187 We actively keep in touch with professionals who develop these RunPE algorithms. Therebefore we can improve the algorithm all the time. The next update will improve the detection.

    A few features require Windows Aero, otherwise it cannot work.

    We got a couple of request regarding the screenshot protection. The future update will add an option, so you have a snipping tool like form to actually make screenshots with protection enabled (print key). What do you think of this feature?

    The next release should no longer contain any major bug. This means the next update leaves the beta state.
    Additionally we add new security features. More details are coming soon.

    We are aware of this problem. This will be fixed in the next version. Sorry for the false detections!

    I am guessing that this app's use of DotNet is what enables you to keep this security program waaay lighter than most others. Am I correct?

    With under 6 MB this application is quite tiny. Of course .Net Framework (mostly preinstalled) is one major reason. The second reason for this is the focus on behavior detection and not the use of blacklisted entries in a huge database. Runtime algorithm will judge the process behavior in order to detect malware or other risks.

    So can anyone get the bloody "Riot Isolator SkipUAC" shortcut to work? This program seems really interesting but without autostart... I'll pass.

    Running a standard account, installed it using my admin account.

    Also, installing into %appdata% on the Admin account seems like a really weird design choice. Just saying.

    Not complaining, I'm just sad really. I've long looked for a good alternative to KeyScrambler and when I finally found it it seems to have been abandoned.

    You too!

    The anti-screenshot tool works, so that's a plus! Had a crash toggling the anti-keylogger though. Will keep it disabled as I can do that with Zemana. Wish sypshelter didn't throw away /breach contract on my lifetime license, but oh well, the anti-screenshot is a great step toward privacy.

    I used to use Zemana AntiLogger but since I'm biased against paying for software that isn't Posteo (€1 per month) and Sandboxie (lifetime license) I can't use the software anymore. They decided to make their only available version pay-to-use. A bit of a dick move after having the free version for so long.

    I registered to WS because I'd be interested in, and would happily use this piece of software even though it seems abandoned. The problem is I'm concerned about the trustworthiness of the developer(s). Comments on ghacks about the review of ScreenWings are warning about potential data sent online by the software. Also the old website of the developer gets blocked by my AV (Nod32) for malicious activity (JS/Redirector.NDS trojan horse). Plus, as I read here the installer of Riot Isolator is flagged as malicious by some AV software. All that made my bells ring!

    I am absolutely no InfoSec or IT expert and this is why I came here to ask: how can I make sure ScreenWings or Riot Isolator work as intended without spying on me? Would it be sufficient to block their executables' connection to internet via firewall? If not, and there's no way to be sure about the safety of these two programs, can anyone please suggest some alternatives for the anti screenshot feature, which is basically the only one I'd be interested in?

    Thank you very much everyone for this good thread.

    That's the problem, you can never be completely sure if apps are trustworthy or not. But yes you should always block apps from connecting out. SpyShelter is an alternative, but it's not free.
