RGguard: Proactively Prevents Malware Infections

RGguard from Robot Genius, provides users and companies with a first line of defense against malware. A lightweight browser plug-in enhancement, RGguard works in tandem with the Robot Genius RGcrawler data to prevent malware infections.

RGguard browser plug-in proactively warns users of danger while they browse the web by marking up search results links with color-coded safety ratings.

The exactness of alerts reduces false positives and keeps restricted sites to a minimum.
Key Benefits

* Lightweight and unobtrusive, works with all browsers.
* Zero-day threat protection against all types of malware.
* A powerful, fully automated method for blocking links to malware and warning users of URLs containing malicious executables.
* Virtually no impact on system performance or system resources.
* Exactness of alerts reduces false positives keeping restricted sites to a minimum, and also keeps ‘noisy’ security alerts to a minimum.

Played with this software b4 and its a no go on my box. BSODs' galore and thats with no other programs installed. XPproS2 patched.

 

Works fine on my box But I only did the firefox thing.

 

I click on the more info link on their page and get 404-error I know what the error means, but I just wanted "more info." The pdf doesn't reveal any more than the web-site....

 

Yet another one of those "search engine results rating tools"

Ill give it a test drive, hopefully its better than SiteAdvisor.

Anyone know how I can contact them? I think I found a bug.

 

Thanks, I have been waiting for this to come out for about a year now
