Salutations/Greetings, @moredhelfinland What is your next step and/or steps to keep this from happening ? Thoughts/Opinions ? You may try CryptoBuster Anti-Ransomware Solution, if so let us know the results, please! post here....
I tested G DATA two years ago, and found a serious bug in it. Reported it and their Tier 1 team could not reproduce the bug, but their Tier 2 team was able to. Now after two years i installed G DATA again, but the bug is still there. Reported it about two weeks ago and they replied that it will be fixed on the next software update. It is a feature called "Monitor critical folders in particular". I've adjusted the virus monitor settings, so it checks the files "only check on execution" and i set "Monitor critical folders in particular" to check %appdata% (read and write, so it overrides only check on execution setting). If you close the GUI, then re-open the GUI, the "Monitor critical folders in particular" is resetted. I really hope that they fix this serious bug, because i really like G Data and its DeepRay and BEAST features. Yes im kind of a G Data fanboy, so i made a slighty modified wallpaper (lol)
I subscribe to SpyShelter (SS) Premium. Five days ago, I submitted a support ticket for a relatively minor question. After receiving no response for 5 days (SS Support usually responds within 1-2 days), I started to write a "hurry up and get on the ball" follow up. However, I belatedly remembered that SS is home-based in Poland, a nation which is directly next to an on-going war. Further, Poland has born the brunt of receiving millions of refugees from that war. So, instead of a gripe, I sent them a message of support and understanding. Surprisingly, SS Support replied within an hour. I will paraphrase the gist of their reply: "Thanks for understanding and boosting. We are still ok, helping neighbours. Though I fear ... our country might become a battleground. Strange times have come."
Hi, Spyshelter silent does not work on my win 11 home, could not load driver. Its something about driver thing! Just to let you all know!
I still have a lifetime license, but I don't use SS anymore because its driver is not compatible with Windows 10 and 11 core isolation. Disabling core isolation solves the problem. But this is something like choosing between a knife or a stick to defend yourself.
I suggest you send them a support request. They have always answered my requests promptly & helpfully. Yours, too, I hope.
@mood -- Dropping their firewall (FW) is a very wise move for Spyshelter. Windows has a built in FW plus there are many 3rd party FWs that are based on Windows internal FW apparatus. That is the very reason I chose to subscribe to Spyshelter Premium version (it does not include the FW). Spyshelter Premium offers strong security, using methods that are either missing or under-powered in AVs and other security apps.
I have to disagree because when it comes to anti-spyware apps, they should always offer a basic firewall which can block outbound connections. Also, the network monitor is one of my favorite features in SS, so it would be a bad move to remove this. Why not simply discontinue SS FW and add the features to SS Premium, this would make more sense. I would like to know Datpol's motivation for doing this.
not good but what about Spyshelter Internet Security!!! i think they will make new thing then if it is its better drop Premium Code: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SpyshelterInternetSecurity_is1
The name "internet security" it's a deep history of SS and been appeared before first build of offical FW version
@ichito Do you have a link for the beta and does the beta require a lic.,key? Keep us updated! always the best,
thanks for info ichito i hope change their mind we need someone create petition for it if they just remove restricted app and firewall tab then there is a not much problem and still good to use but not other feature. they should keep Application Execution Control and registry,User Defined registry key but i am still looking for that missing actiontype
Hi people, here is official statement about SS what actually covers our suppositions and speculation about SS future. Info isn't so informative as I could expect https://malwaretips.com/threads/cha...ter-firewall-discontinued.117742/post-1007927
@ichito It is just me, but, I stay away from over software that over a few years. But , truly appreicate you letting me know that is from 2011. Kind regards, again thank you!
@Moose World -- SpyShelter is a LONG time out of beta. Its latest updates for current releases were issued just several weeks ago, in 2022.
