Replace SSM free

I've installed XP-SP3 and now SSM free doesn't work anymore. Processguard still works, but I want a replacement for SSM free (I especially like the parent/child feature). Any suggestions(free or paid)?

 

You can get the paid version of SSM (which will work on XP SP3)

SSM-2.4.0.622

And the key: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=259556&page=4 (See post #82 for the key)

 

I know, but the paid version didn't have the parent/child feature as far as I can recall.

 

Yes, it has them.

 

Ok, but there was something about the paid version I disliked and therefor used the free version. Is there a more up to date hips that's comparable?

Ok, thx, I'll look into it.

 

Take a look to OSSS: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=236422&highlight=osss

 

or even PE Guard v2

 

First I tried SSM and that's better than I thought parent/child-wise, but it's also a strong contender bsod-wise . Starting IE in learning or in normal mode gives a bsod every time. Next in line is MD. When I make my choice I will have to reinstall an image, because also sp3 gave me 1 bsod. Not a serious one though.

 

Installed MD. Had dns-requests, but I guess that's ok, so I allowed it. I'm impressed with it;just what I was looking for. Will play with it and when a bit comfortable will install an image and it'll be a keeper. Thx for the replies .

EDIT: MD slows down my pc. For instance firefox starts in 8 sec where this is 4 without MD, so I guess.... . Will look into OA now. Will post again when the dust settles .

 

I think you are the first person ever to report a slowdown using MD. I would suggest double checking the logs to make sure there is nothing else going on. Also, what other security software are you running.

 

I allready uninstalled it, so no logs. Installed Real Time Defender now and no slowdown whatsoever. Will play with it and maybe before I put back an image install MD again to see if I can see a conflict.

 

Will keep Real Time Defender. Installed MD again and it didn't bsod at starting of IE, but still slows down FF tremendously (and perhaps also other things, but didn't test that . EDIT: did test IE and Opera and they also start MUCH slower. Opera 1 sec-> 6 sec). Couldn't see anything in the log. Will use RTD, because it's smooth so far and does what I want.

 

Have an image installed and now sp3 doesn't give a bsod and RTD works like a charm. I'm content .

 

I'm using RTD with XP Sp3 and like it alot. On Win 7, I'm using the last paid version of MD with no problems.

 

RTD is excellent, you won't regret it. I have not experienced any slowdowns with MD though, especially in launching programs.

 

Where did you find RTD at? The site says it is under construction.

 

get it from here

 

I'll remember that for 2014 . XP stays on till it ends.

 

I haven't got a clue why it happens on my pc. Maybe because it's running almost the same for a very long time and picky for what you add. I guess there will be some errors in my pc by now which you only notice on moments like this.

 

Got it. Thanks for the link mike21!

 

Why not just replace the OS rather than SSM? That or hack the registry and services until you get a safe MS OS. I disable nearly everything in a Windows OS: it's not worth the time nor the trouble.

dave i did that it takes long of my time but it is good to learn

 

Yeah the old startup floppy disk does come in handy when the eyes begin to blur while editing the old registry. SO MUCH TO GET RID OF. MS should have its motto: ASSAULT ME! I'M VULNERABLE!
