Hello everyone, I just purchased tds-3 and want to know if I should protect it with process guard. And if so ,what should I block, what should I allow and should I have anything checked in options. Thank You
Welcome to Wilders gr49erluvr, If you only have Process Guard Free (which can protect one process) than I would rather protect the firewall process. In the paid Process Guard, you can protect as many apps as needed. For TDS-3, I have the first 4 block flags checked, no allow flags, and close MSG handling checked.
Sounds good to me Hi gr49erluvr & welcome, Please take some time to read through the threads here and the help file to familiarise yourself about Process Guard's installation and setup. HTH Pilli
I used to have CMH flag checked for TDS-3, but disabled it. I've heard that option is a little buggy, and from what I've experienced, I would agree. Pilli - Do you think the DCS programmers will have the bugs worked out when TDS-4 is released? In theory, it's a nice feature!
Hi Daisie, Hopefully beta testing will sort out most of the bugs in TDS4 Regarding Close Message Handling, Process Guard uses undocumented methods to achieve it's purpose and it can be problemtaic with different setups, Jason is working on the PG update as I write and I know that many minor bugs and at least one vulnerability have been addressed HTH Pilli
Thanks Pilli. I see now that I really screwed-up when typing my question above, but that you also somehow understood what I was really trying to ask. I remember reading in another thread that the ability to read people's minds can really come in handy when dealing with spouses, too. I should have said: "Do you think the DCS programmers will have the bugs worked out when PG 3.0 is released?" Thanks again, and looking forward to seeing the fruits of Jason's hard work!!
Daisie, That's what happens when one has been married thirty one years! Whether every bug applicable to every system is fixed - I would certainly make no 100% guarantee and I doubt any software developer would either but I am sure that it will be a lot, lot better in many ways Pilli
