    Build 1.09.348 adds a new Execution Block emergency action. This quickly places a temporary execution block on user-writable processes (no admin rights required), and can be very useful during an investigation or incident.

    I have to admit I was a bit disappointed. There is no way to remember colum-size and it also doesn't support 150% DPI scaling.

    I have added your feedback to the issues and to-do list.
    Development of security-related features have more priority.
    Thanks for your comments!

    Build 1.09.358 detects third-party DLL injections (which are not always malicious but are definitely worth reviewing)

    Of course, to get it to run, I had to remove from quarantine:

    Just tried to run this latest version, and nothing... It won't open. Tried the previous version, i.e. 1.09.359, and it won't open, now. Very strange!

    This should now be fixed in build 1.09.368. Also keep in mind that these are still preview builds. Soon there will be both free and paid editions. Feedback and feature suggestions are always welcome!

    Are you planning on enhancing the GUI so it can be resized or maximized to avoid left/right scroll bars?
    Your screen shot doesn't show any, but with my resolution/dpi it does. Also column resizing would help too.

    Yes some listview enhancements are on the to-do list, as well as remembering column ordering.
    If possible could you specify what your resolution and DPI settings are?

    Column ordering works, but not resizing (to see the entire text). Also please consider 32-bit systems
    Monitor ( 1600x900 ) not using recommended resolution
    Laptop ( 1366x768 ) not using recommended resolution
    DPI Medium ( 125% ) both screens

    My details for my last post: :)

    Dimensions: 1808 pixels width x 1208 pixels height

    Horizontal resolution 192 dpi, [i.e. equivalent to 200%]

    Vertical resolution 192 dpi, [i.e. equivalent to 200%]

    Hope it is helpful.

    Thank you for the feedback. DPI support is on the to-do list, but I can't give an ETA at this time.

    Next version will add a new feature, quick air-gapped scans, which use special high-density QR codes to quickly check recent items in high-risk directories (Desktop, Downloads and Temp, in the current implementation) for malware. (These codes can be scanned with any smartphone - no additional app is needed)

    A first commercial edition of ThreatSniper will be released shortly, with an early-bird discount (though pricing details are not final yet). The free version will continue to be available, though with a limited feature set.

    @svenfaw thanks for your useful programme, can you make it so I can enlarge the window border? The small window is really annoying and doesn't encompass whole information,
    also it would seam that I cannot close the programme normally with X, I have to terminate it, closing with X on the taskbar works but not on the full window, X is stuck there and cannot be pressed

    thanks

    @lucd Regarding the issues exiting the program: Please can you try the latest version and see if the issue is still present? If so, could you check what your current Windows version is?

    Can you try version 1.09.374 (released earlier today)? It includes a fix for a related issue, which could also resolve this.
