Depends on how you define infection of course. Without some kind of smart auto rollback, chances are there will be some degree of "infection", but...
Look at this list http://wiki.castlecops.com/Online_antivirus_scans#Full_disk_scans
Yeah. What he said. Presumably "enforcing system policy" would imply that you expect to run malware and still surivive.... :D
Mine too. And i was just running Safespace alone...
Think about it. In the classic HIPS mode, we get lots of prompts that we are not so sure of. In threatfire Sure we can quartatine, but usually we...
I would say traditional/conventional wisdom is that you can probably drop GesWall or Sandboxie. And add something like Threatfire and ProSecurity. :D
The main problem is this. You are scanning with 32 scanners with virus total. Consider that even if the chance of FP for 1 scanner individually...
It gets worse, people are now convinced that they need to run *all* sorts of crap. It used to be you were supposed to run just ProcessGuard class...
You know there isn't. That is why you quote what i write like a disciple of mine, whenever you get a chance to lecture on "behavior blockers"... ;D
I marvel at how some people can write hundreds of words to say what is already said in the thread. ;D About whitelists and the HIPS vendor...
Hmm aren't you guys supposed to use something like Ethereal to see what is going on... I know this is wilders security forum that we are...
yeah me too. That is why I prefer to write it up on a webpage/wiki. When I do that everyone takes it as gospel... But i say the same thing on a...
Well the guy who does the respected rogue list of antispyware, names Pest Patrol has one of the trustworthy ones, together with Spybot and...
For me, it depends on what HIPS are using. Even though they might be advertising on paper the same features (say that OLE thingie) , I notice they...
4) Features that add much security, but are less noisy?? Hmm, the fact that you don't think 4) is possible, makes me wonder if the concept of...
You want maximum protection? You can run threatfire/norton antibot with Geswall/sandboxie/safespace (pick one) + Prosecurity/SSM/Comodo...
A beta of GesWall? Looks like yet another possible reason....
So the concensus of this thread is the hosts files is useless for security (Bellagamin is just arguing for the sake of arguing) . The best anyone...
There is little reason to run both of them together.
Sure they would. You should also add a sandbox like GesWall or sandboxie or safespace or defensewall to complete your defense... There is no...
Work-around seems simple. Run either one or the other, not both!
Despite the wide scope of Comodo's Defense+ module, I disagree. A HIPS with firewall is stuff like SSM, ProSecurity where firewall functions...
Or that OLE thinggie...
Don't worry neither do I (and not just for PS, also for Comodo firewall). One sign we are too dumb to handle "dumb" HIPS .. lol.. It works...
In other words "anything goes" as long as you are safe?
Separate names with a comma.
