I've noticed that issue often, but not every time, when I have a protected browser window open such as Firefox. If I open another application...
One reason that Sophos may want to keep HMPA around as a standalone is that it is likely a useful testing ground for new features to be used in...
I think that we all did! :doubt:
Maybe the new owners have gone into "Scrooge" mode?...
I got a buy one/get a 2nd year free deal 2 years ago via email in mid-November. So I'll be coming up for a renewal in the near future, but I...
So, any takers on the new version?
I always disable JavaScript in my PDF readers.
Well, then it appears that it's on you to prove that HMPA does not deliver on its promise. Click away on those sketchy links!
Daily image backups are the best security that you can have! In fact, I consider HitmanPro.Alert to be just an "alert" that some malicious...
You really only need an AV if the user allows untrusted software to run on the computer in the first place. First layer of defense is the user...
If not, you just need to prevent this ransomware from getting on your system in the first place! Safe computing!
Ah! Thanks for the clarification. I use Win10 Pro on both of my computers, so not very familiar with Home. I misunderstood "device" encryption to...

Not when I'm sleeping at night, LOL! But the average size is ~200 GB used on a 500 GB SSD, backed up to a WD Passport USB spinner.
A good question, but who would you trust to test it? If Sophos/SurfRight did reveal any weaknesses in their detection, that information could then...
Reflect has worked very well for me since 2017. Up to that point I had been using the built-in Windows 7 Backup and Restore to create my images....
Verify takes about the same amount of time here that it takes to write the image. The verification task processes the target image file and...
HMPA license includes HMP, but definitely not the other way around.
^^^ This!!!
I have reinstalled HMPA, as I got a Macrium image validation failure without it. Not sure what the BSOD was all about. Maybe a faulty target...
Follow up on removal of HitmaPro Alert... Had another verification failure on my daily image last night, followed by a successful retry. So that...
Swapped the target USB drive to another port/cable, then to another USB controller (different brand, different driver). Details in my previous...
At this point, I could only think it may be the target drive controller itself. No dock here, as it is a sealed WD Elements 1TB USB 3.0 drive....
