Yes, otherwise I wouldn't use BOClean. I don't need files deleted just on BOClean's say-so; I want to see the alleged culprit before I...
I, too, was very disappointed that SS became so oppressively conflicted with my other security apps, espcially nod32 and comodo fw. I re-upped...
No problemo. Didn't think your comment was off-topic. Maybe you can answer another question: is it possible to combine hosts files? I...
By the way, has this ever happened?? A "clean" site that turned bad? ||
Good point. WinDefndr *is* better than it was a couple of years ago, but it does seem largely redundant. |||
Doesn't the "set-up" option allow one to *not* remove anything unattended?? Iow, BOC will flag the perceived offender, but does not remove it...
Thanks for your suggestions. No conflicts so far between NOD32 & BOClean. Why don't you like WinDefender? Seems like a nice check on system...
Yes, this is mainly my point. What possible harm is there to a hosts file blocker?? |||
I see your point, yet if a certain known site were to suddenly come up with a new exploit -- something for which there are no signatures and which...
Some apps that have routine pop-ups will give you a "delay" feature that prevents this inadvertant (and unknowing) approval/clicking. Should be...
Thank you. Have you done any in-depth analysis of either of these hosts files?
Thanks, dja2k. Why is MVPS Hosts better than Spybot's?? Spybot's is -- if nothing else -- bigger! Have you examined both in any detail??...
I got wind of MVP Hosts file a few months ago. It loaded about 600k of pre-confirmed sites that are not good, so I used it for a couple of...
Good idea! I have had it running today -- a more normal day, with less documents (word, excel, photo editor, etc.) open and running; the...
Re-installed BOClean (latest Comodo incarnation) and have found that it runs at high cpu count for 10 or 15+ minutes, cpu at 90-100% for minutes...
Sorry, I'm not able to do a screen shot; file is too big, I guess. Anyway, I was getting one after another. I must have made at least a...
Very impressive! I'll keep that in mind. I'm trialing ProSecurity at the moment. If it gets too cranky I'll give OA another shot. (I...
You know what, I'm having more pop-ups with JPF1 now that I have tried to set rules than when I just was clicking OK to the pop-ups. Seems my...
Any other opinions based on personal experience of HIPs that succeed in stopping termination of vital defenses (anti-viruses, firewalls, or other)...
Hi, Stem, I'm trialing ProSecurity and like what I see so far. Doesn't seem as polished in ui as SSM, but seems to have a better efficiency...
I downloaded a newer version of Spybot S&D about two weeks ago, and I concur that it loads v-e-r-r-r-r-r-y slowly. This is version 1.5.1.15 with...
Good suggestions. Thanks!! |||
I'm refining as I go here. Still getting some pop-ups for Skype. Have entered the port range for both incoming and outgoing as "1024-65355",...
Hello, Seer, OK, I did as you suggested. I still get some pop-ups, I think because the IP address of the remote may need to be set in rule...
Thanks, AJohn, for the tip. I have seen this study before, not long ago, and it makes me want to try out the latest version of Comodo FW once...
