Introducing, The New Prevx Edge.

To everyone who has had upgrade "issues" today - these were caused because of the false positive we had earlier with the MBR scan. We decided to wait to put out a new Beta for upgrade until we fixed this new functionality.

We will have the new version out by the morning and you all should return to upgrading automatically again

 

Only automatic. I recall 46 and 47 not being quiet ("Status" appearing), while 48 possibly could be quiet - didn't notice what then. I'm running a default (admin) account on WinXP SP3.

 

ok thank you for reply

i have again question.
Are you make webpage or in program the option for send sample ?
and date for many language ?

thank you.

 

I guess you mean for extra attention, cause all information that's new to the db is sent automatically.

 

We are still planning to have a website to send samples but for now, you can PM me and I'll forward them onto the research team

More languages are coming soon also

 

Is direct-submission to you not planned for the software as well?

 

Aha! Here we go again... updating to 49 showed the Status-popup once again.

 

I am running the beta, 3.0.1.48, and when manually updating receive the message; "Prevx 3.0 update failed. Try again later".

Any news on the new version?

 

Hi Joe

Running .49 and am puzzled as BOTH 'Scanning and Detection' & 'Realtime Infection Monitoring' Configure optiosn point to 'Setting' when I would have thought that the latter should point to 'Tools'.

Am I losing it or what?

Also, I think that the colour impact of the latest build seems to be toned down...washed out...which I do not think is good.

Other than that the build seems to be working well so far!

 

The Configure buttons are currently just placeholders We haven't yet changed the colors, so this is the same as it has been but we are going to be changing them to be stronger/less washed out

Also, for everyone who has asked before - you can now click on the text "Total Scan Statistics:" and it will let you reset your front screen statistics

 

Beta 3.0.1.48: Scan Scheduler has an option for scanning at next bootup if the machine was powered-off at the scan time. Many machines use "Suspend" mode rather than powered-off. The Windows task scheduler provides an option to "Wake the computer to run this task"...can you add such an option to the Prevx Scan Scheduler...?...

...no auto-update to 3.0.1.49 yet 9:09 AM EST...

galileo

 

Yes, we should be able to I'll add it to the list

 

If you try now, are you still receiving the error if when manually updating?

 

Just to clarify - did you upgrade by clicking "Check for updates" or did it update automatically?

 

Is auto-update functioning in the 3.0.1.48 build...?

galileo

 

Yes, just tried.

 

Yes, but it may be easier to just have a web based form. Our software automatically sends up data about samples so if there is a new threat emerging, chances are we know about it.

Web-based submission is useful for the "one-off" types of threats but if we do add it into the product, it will probably just be a link in the product to the web form.

 

Joe,
bld 46 still telling me I have the latest version. I have it set for a routine scan in 20 mins, I'll see what happens then.

 

Could you try once more now?

 

Build 40 is telling me I have the latest version. What's up?

 

Hi Jo

Understood. Thanks for the clarification.

However, with .49 I have had a reocurrence of the legitimate MBR modification (by RollBack Rx in this case) being detected as a Rootkit activity, as detailed in the following post:

https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1441413&postcount=3237

Any chance that this could be corrected as under .48?

 

.48 upgraded successfully to .49

 

Still no go here; stuck on .48.

 

Just clicked 'Check for updates' - tells me a new version is available - I clicked yes to install, activity down at the task bar from prevx as usual - BUT, the tray icon has now disappeared and clicking on the shortcut is producing no response - it's dead
Start > all programs > Prevx gets no response either. Cannot start it.
I'm going out for about 15 mins or so, I'll see what you recommend when I get back. My instinct is to uninstall, clean up any registry entries and try a fresh install - would that be a good idea?

 

Could you first try just rebooting? If that doesn't solve it, then yes, you'll want to uninstall/reinstall
