Depending on configuration, your AV will be inspecting all files written to or read from your HD. When you attempt to open an executable file...
It is quite different. SAS and A2 are malware scanners with additional Realtime protection if you pay for it. The A2 Guard features behaviour...
I've been running ZAP and KAV together for several years without problems. Currently I run KAV 7 and ZAP 7, so I don't know why there is supposed...
I might have expected the permissions to be stored somewhere in the Registry, but I don't know where. There are some hidden Keys at:-...
Oh, now I uderstand what you mean. Have you tried creating rules to protect changes to 'policy' ?...
No, ZA AS does not detect malware in the sense of using signatures. The AS scanner in ZA is demand only, it is not acting realtime to intercept...
Triple FW just means protection from inward hack attempts (normal FW function), protection from attempts to send info out (normal software FW...
I really don't understand what you mean by stripping out permissions, but if you create a Registry Rule protecting:-...
Of course it soesn't report finding Cookies, it NEVER has done! Any Cookies found realtime by the shield are removed silently - no report is...
I use IE6 with Security set to 'Medium'. With that setting you are vulnerable to certain exploits using Active X, Sun Java, and scripting. To...
Oh really! Then how do they execute? In real life situations malware does seek to change the Registry and if SAS doesn't recognise the malware,...
Seeing as you already have SAS and don't mind buying another, your best option would be Counterspy realtime and SAS for demand. CS will give much...
No, it's the other way round. 3.410 is the latest. Up until a few weeks ago you could still get it from this link:-...
With SSM I would right click tray icon, select 'Rules', and disable all rules prior to install/uninstall of anything. However, with installs, you...
I think it's looking for wups.dll and wups2.dll. ;) I'm not concerned but I am annoyed, wuauclt.exe has changed and it looks like we could be...
The configuration file of SSM covers all of SSM's settings, not just the Registry protection (it is also the same problem with KAV's Reg Guard);...
The paid for version of SSM has quite wide ranging coverage, and it is configurable so you can add to it - if you can work out how to! ;D...
I've never used GMER, but go to IE/Tools/Internet Options/Connections, presumably it only permits the default connection here to foil malware...
RD does not start particularly early on my system, and I don't think it can be made to start early enough for your purpose. The only Reg guard I...
I wouldn't say so. A user account has limited permissions which restricts what damage malware can do; however some malware exploits do work in...
I doubt that you are seeing many votes for SAS realtime protection; just about all the votes you are seeing are based on the fact SAS has a...
The best AT scanner for this type of situation is AVG-AS/ewido (BOClean is realtime, it is not a demand scanner). You need to run it in safe mode...
IE's integrated into Windows, but you can deal with it via 'Add/Remove Windows Components' in the Add/Remove programs section. Also, you can...
Process Explorer is a good bit of kit, but not for hunting rootkits! For that one of these would be better:-...
The only other thing I can think of is go to IE/Tools/Internet Options/Programs and choose "Reset web settings" . The trouble is the problem is...
