Did clean install and everything fine so far with new beta.

 

Great job Pedro and great program.
Thanks.

 

I've been running this new beta release since I had problems with MBAE after upgrading to Windows 8.1.1 on one system. I liked how it ran so well, I upgrade my three other Win7 systems to it as well. NO problems on any of the systems since...

 

This new beta runs OK on my PC so far.

 

I know you're aware of conflicts with EMET, and have opted to postpone consideration of them for the time being. Just letting people here know --- in case this happened to them as well --- that in order to open IE with MBAE 0.10.3.0100, I had to turn off SimExecFlow in EMET 4. [No conflict with EMET 3, which doesn't include SimExecFlow; and so far, no conflict with programs other than just IE (e.g., FF opens fine with SimExecFlow enabled).]

EDIT: Also needed to turn off SimExecFlow to PRINT from (but not to open) Adobe Reader.

 

I have found a clash between the new version and Webroot's Identity Shield. If I don't switch this one off Chrome remains blank and MBAE shows zero protected applications. I guess the latest version hasn't been properly whitelisted by Webroot yet. (Local overrides on WSA are pretty useless, if they don't trust a file there is little you can do on your end; one thing I really don't like in WSA).

I'm on XP SP3.


EDIT:

If I disable Adblock Plus Chrome works but MBAE don't load with Chrome and other extensions won't work either. WSA is clearly blocking like crazy.

 

Running grrreat on my XP-based computer!

 

I heard that Windows 9 could be free. I intend to keep on using XP until they pay me to update, lol.

 

Yes - immediately after the first pig has learned to fly I believe.

 

it is good

 

Perhaps this is what you heard?

Microsoft might give Windows licenses to system builders to compete with Android, etc, but that's quite different than giving it away retail.

 

Shielded applications counter not always working.

 

this is gold for xp user

 

@ ZeroVulnLabs

I will check out the new version, thanks.

Btw, two questions:

1 When will we get to see a new GUI?
2 What happened to the site where all exploits blocked by MBAE were listed (see links)?

Is a new GUI needed? What did you have in mind?

 

Still not compatible with the installation of LibreOffice.

 

I don't think that libreoffice is an objective of any malware exploit.

 

There is an error during the installation/upgrade.

 

I have installed OpenOffice without any problem with MBAE.

 

Still blocks Windows Media Player for Windows 7 when opening VIDEO_TS.IFO when starting a DVD that is on the hard drive.

 

Being close to final release, could you shed some light on licensing? Will there be a freeware version also?

 

I agree that with such an app, GUI is not the most important, but a bit more eye-candy would be nice.

Perhaps it can look a bit more like MBAM.

 

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!

 

Its the kind of software you hope you don't need to interact with too much.....I don't think the GUI needs any improvement, I don't know why people want 'pretty' GUI's...They don't exactly improve the performance of software.
