@trott3r -- You can get KVRT by copy/paste of URL below. That URL initiates an immediate download -- that's why I coded it. It's a single exe file -- no other files are needed. Code: http://www.kaspersky-help.com/?hl=en&version=15.0.24.0&pid=kvrt&link=kvrtexe @WiseVector -- what is the latest news on issuance of a NON-free WiseVector version?
... Except I read today it leaves a file for troubleshooting on C:\. Easily removed if wanted. https://www.kaspersky.com/downloads/free-virus-removal-tool
It is, but it shouldn't be. HMP for years has been oblivious to certain forms of malware (like worms) allowing both the infection itself as well as the persistence mechanism. Personally I don't see the point in relying on a secondary scanner that only kinda-sorta works.
Very interesting thread here. I am convinced and will install early next week on a dedicated partition. Cheers guys!
Cheers in return. Do what you can on your current PC defense posture but this addition is a useful compliment along most any defense.
Thanks there. Incidentally I will install alongside AvastFree (or KSC Free), CIS (firewall only, AV-HIPS disabled), OSArmor Free 1.43. WiseVector StopX V3.03 has the firewall and HIPS, yes? Possible conflict with CIS firewall? @WiseVector WiseVector StopX V3.03 is final, yes? (as seen in WiseVector sig), will this remain as free-to-download or a later new free-version will surface? Any previews on the paid version interface? Danka!
WiseVector StopX V3.05 was released! Update log: 1. Added WMI firewall, which can prevent malware attacks (execution, persistence, exfiltration, etc.) by using WMI (Only supports Windows 8 and above). 2. Improved self-protection against malicious programs that use various techniques to stop WiseVector StopX. 3. Improved the protection against data stealer trojans. Added multi-step behavior detection model to detect Discord Token stealer. 4. Detected malware which modify system VBR, disk partition tables. 5. Improved the protection of SAM database, which can prevent attacks such as adding a user to Windows or changing user passwords. 6. Detected malware which dump Windows passwords by installing Security Support Provider (SSP). 7. When HIPS prompts for driver loading, it will show the real program that loads the driver. 8. HIPS will prompt user if Chrome tries to load a suspicious extension. 9. Added multiple new events in HIPS rules. 10. Fixed other bugs. Please download via: https://update2.wisevector.com/WiseVector_StopX_V305.exe Autoupdate is not available now, you can uninstall the old version and install V3.05 or overwrite. Thanks for using WiseVector StopX!
Clean install of v3.05. Install was quick. Noticed it still installs to Program Files(x86) Still looking around.
Is it possible that WVSX could be messing with my network adapters on both machines? Before WVSX: After WVSX:
