Hi everyone, A couple of weeks ago, KAV real-time (not on-demand) detected malware in some ADS (one by one) on my friends machine. I was able...
Thanks, as always, Pilli. What a great group this is! :) Rich
Hi Rmus, There are many approaches to the problem. Just as an aside, my wife and son have been using the machine with PG for about six...
Hi Jag, Out of the box, RegDefend does not protect these registry areas. You can set up your own entries for these areas, but I am not familiar...
Hi Jag, Yes, you are protected right out of the box. Just make sure you have re-booted. Under the Main tab, you will see the Groups of...
Hi G1111, Pretty much my configuration only I am using Ewido in real-time. I have Trojan Hunter on standby for on-demand scans. Have you looked...
Hi Paranoid, Most of my important security programs, e.g. KAV, ProcessGuard, Ewido, seem to be self protecting, which are the ones I am...
Hi Don, Thanks for the info. As always, your posts are very informative. Rich
Hi CN232, You make this seem like an all or nothing proposition. Extreme positions are useful, but have limited real practicality. For...
Hi djg05, Originally I experiment with SMH but ended up doing what you are doing. It just wasn't worth the bother, especially since they are...
Hi djg05, My rule-of-thumb is that if it is a trusted program and it needs global hooks then I give it. I have one trusted program that asks...
Hi bibbe, I think that something went wrong during installation. I am sure someone will be along shortly to help you through. Sometimes...
Hi TeknO, I am not familiar with 4.5's email processing, since I use online email software. However, Don monitors this forum and I am sure he...
Hi bibbe, Glad things are running O.K right now. Sometimes these things happen and you handled it the way I would. Cya around, Rich
Yes, I agree. WormGuard is another very good "pro-active" program. Now and then, I find that a program is trying to execute a script behind the...
Hi bibbe, What other real-time programs are you running during the PG install (e.g. anti-virus, anti-trojan, etc.)? Did you shut them down...
Yes, I believe Greatis Software's UnHackme is attempting to do something similar to what you suggest for RegDefend and it would certainly make...
Hi TeknO, The primary reason I have removed Pro from my system and am now using 4.5 Pro, is because there is no way to fully suppress ADS in...
Hi Dave, Yes, I understood. There is a local database (such as the one AVs like KAV maintains), and then there is a remote database, with which...
Hi Wake2 and Rmus, Thanks for the additional info and comparisons. Rich
Hi Rmus, From what I have been told, the answer is yes. Worms, for example, could launch programs through buffer overflows which I am told will...
Hi Vikorr, One way to look at it is that with ProcessGuard gives a person an opportunity to stop malware that may have gone undetected by the...
Thanks for the summary kareldjag. Rich
Hi worldcitizen, There are all kinds of database available on the internet to make decisions. For example:...
Hi Guys, Thanks for the correction. PG can easily be set up to create a "white list", which is what it does at inital installation under...
