"For Bill Gates so loathed The World that gave his lastly-begotten Vista unto the end that all who believe in Microsoft should not perish, but...
Guys, I really hate to break in on a truly wonderful World War XXI -- SKIP WARS III THROUGH XX! -- but I need to interrrrrupt just long enough to...
No, Gates blew it big time. He allowed too many to beta test Vista in its pre-release versions, and it's holes are known. Gates WANTS his software...
Oh! Trust me! Vista is as safe as toilet paper trying to withstand a strong wind! A good friend of mine bought his Duo Core PCs and bought into...
I run some of my PCs the way your running yours, and I have no problems. As long as you use a browser safer than IE, and something -- anything --...
It never shows up for me: I edited some AntiVir files, and THAT fixed THAT! Also of interest to me was editing AntiVir 7 such that the AntiVir 6...
Would a blinding lockdown system qualify as an AV? Such systems are not only possible, but also inviolate! Dave
Although the proof-theoretic, typed, combinatory logic of polymophisms and coersions has been with us for years, I find it hard to believe that...
It ought be remembered also that heuristic methods are the "art" of subtle evocation (as unto the entrapment of crapware) - not provocation (as...
No paranoid behavior. Hackers have been trying to crack this site to prevent people at Wilders from assisting people who visit this site in need...
Not only that. I sent you a somewhat detailed PM regarding heuristics. Dave The guy who got Dana Scott and Robin Gandy to join the short-lived...
I have an interest in heuristics; although, my interests lie in the more mathematical foundations of heuristics, as opposed to the more practical...
Thanks, Firecat, if I still had my health, I would love to work for an AV outfit. Dave
Thanks, Inspector. But am I correct in assuming that the algorithms do involve goal orientation, fairness, goal subinduction, forcing,...
This this probaly won't be of any immediate help, but NONE of my PCs have IE, Outlook, etc. Having had so d++ned much trouble with IE, I DELTREED...
Yeah, looks like you're right. But I would like also to ask somone from the NOD32 team whether NOD32's heuristics are based on Harvey Friedman's...
Thanks, tweakie, it's nice to know that some AVs do run on stochastic nets/automata for their model bases. I wrote some papers on this long ago...
Perhaps it's not relevant as per the test results; however, such knowledge beforehand would explain to the vendor the reason for the number of...
It would be interesting to know. For example. F-Prot claims neural network heuristics, so do they program in C++ with a sochastic net in mind? Dave
IBK, do the AV authors ever tell you whether their heuristics are Petri net based, graph based, goal oriented, sub-goal inductive, design based,...
Honestly, I would drop Spysweeper for the new freeware WinPatrol 10.0.5. Bluefrog is good for antispam, but the Opera browser has a spam filter...
YES, it would! Dave Support software piracy: someone must!
Avast -- A VERY GOOD PRODUCT -- installs certain DCOM components which can overwrite certain runtime files. This can be seen by installing Avast...
Here's a good link for a start -- visited by many former avast! users. Avast's support page discusses the problem as well as Avast's power...
After you follow RejZoR's advice, restore your DCOM with the MS DCOM setup because avast! is notorious for wiping you DCOM. Dave
