That sounds a bit weird, I don't think that Ghostery modifies memory? Or wait a minute, it probably uses a BHO inside IE, so that would explain it. About the second comment, can you post a screenshot of SS alerting about service/driver state modification? Doesn't make a lot of sense, I wonder how Zemana takes care of this.
I don't want to argue with developer...it's his own app so maybe you should ask them about more detailed answer?
@ ichito Well, it's not about arguing, but from a technical point of view it's a bit weird. I mean, even legitimate apps trigger this behavior, so a HIPS should always be able to allow it. I don't see the problem: let trusted apps modify "network hooks", and block untrusted apps from doing so. And if these hooks are malicious, you can always use HMPA to alert about it. I don't believe that SS offers this at the moment.
i set in ask user level and dont need change to No and installer of Sandboxie give me alert for state of a service/driver action thanks
Since installing the latest SpyShelter 9.6.5 I could not terminate or end process in Task Manager.It says the operation could not be completed access denied. Did it happen the same to you? Or is this something other than spyshelter?
@sweater Might be something else, i've just try right now and i can terminate and end process of Spyshelter and all others ones. Maybe your event viewer could help you. Oups! or this option in settings of SpyShelter (see screenshot) Rules.
It is not just spyshelter but all of the process running in task manager could not be terminated anymore.
Hello to you all sweater Yes, I noticed exactly the same problem. I was looking for the culprit and I think it is Spyshelter.
Yeah, oks...it works. LoL!!! I tried to check that and now I can terminate anything in the task manager with ease. LoL!!! Tnx...
Maybe it can be because of this two latest changes "– Self defense enhanced – General protection improvements" Windows Task Manager is often manipulated by malware to hide malware's own processes or to kill processes of security apps, so SS in this build can better protect itself and other trusted/whitelisted processes? Of course it can be some issue also
Yap, I think it's an excellent addition to its protective nature..just needs some time for us to be used to it or else it can make the users crazy. LoL!!! By the way, do you guys have also checked the option box - Launch the program from the service (early start)? Do you think it really makes big difference?
at least for me it don't make any change with early start.i think cause run it on logon screen in the recent version i see icon of SSF very soon on taskbar but still take 2 minutes to protection enabled (gray to blue icon) i wish "Block the component execution" feature become global and when activate it just allow run from allowed list it is like SRP software
This was mainly added to solve a conflict with Directory Opus file manager, which could cause a hang.
Just a heads up but Spyshelter firewall is $8.20 at Bitsdujour today. http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/...r-firewall Title&utm_campaign=2015-03-08 PC B
hi i want set restricted mode for Internet Download Manager,which folder must i add?first work then turn of PC now after turn on i see not working i added below folders C:\Program Files\Internet Download Manager C:\ProgramData\IDM C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\IDM C:\Users\username\Downloads i think it is for limited registry.
I use IDM in restricted mode... along with EagleGet. C:\Program Files\Internet Download Manager\IDM.exe - add into Restricted Apps list... C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\IDM - add into Folders with Write Access list... C:\Users\username\Downloads - add into Folders with Write Access list... I haven't added C:\ProgramData\IDM. Also, one last thing worth mentioning... no settings changes via Options sub-menu will commit to IDM permanently while they are made in restricted mode. You must right click IDM in the Restricted Mode tab, run as unrestricted for any changes to commit.

SpyShelter HIPS doesn't give you enough options to properly configure. For example if you give firefox permision to execute other applications it doesn't give you the option of what applications it can execute specifically. LIke for example how do allow firefox to execute ONLY Plugin-container.exe and not malware.exe ?
