what is the difference between fd-isr and rollback rx?

I've been using sandboxie for about a month now and haven't seen anything disappear but I'll watch for it. I use powershadow because it was free and I know about the MBR situation. It works in limited user mode and has no conflicts with my other security software and plays nice with FDISR. Comodo FW is coming out with a version 3 that will be way better and I'm holding out for that before I redo my system. I'd like to get the anti executable but I feel pretty safe without it with my setup and fee like it's a bit overkill. What script blocking program did you settle on? I still don't see rollback rx as an option over FDISR as speed and space are not an issue with me yet.

 

I use ScriptDefender, which isn't really a security software, it's more a warning software that requires my 'wrong' yes or no.

 

What i like best about AE is the WHITELIST!/BLACKLIST! feature and it does work like a charm. Yes, it takes additional time to configure new programs into it's database but nothing out-of-the-ordinary then any other security program.

Overkill, perhaps, but if you really want a Controlled Inventory of allowed programs, this baby is the ticket to a tightly controlled Windows environment.

Only problem, is that according to Peter2150 it doesn't cooperate very well with FD-ISR.

 

Not particularly.

Hi Pete.

Since your suggestion i haven't bothered to combine them at all. Prefer to play it safe.

 

I do, but on another LARGER Hard Drive. Being overly cautious with software programs these days, especially security ones, i installed AE to a drive without FD. I really not attempted to combine the two but was my understanding they didn't gel. Is this right?

 

Not likely. If it can make for issues, even a slight one, then no sense doing something that might cost extra time to try to correct, right?

More On Topic:

I'm 100% sold and completely satisfied with FD-ISR results even now that RollBackRx is moving forward with their own flavor of innovation in this department.

But remember too. Leapfrog is a very well coordinated group of skilled developers in this field, and we can expect even more advancements coming from that camp at some point in time.

I think Rollback's jump to sonic-speed features like they've done with this latest version is a plus for them AND US. And was sorely needed to restore confidence again in that program.

But for now, FD-ISR still remains the chief rollback operation on this end of the internet spectrum.

 

I see that a lot here do a combo of

FDISR + PowerShadow / ShadowDefense? / Sandboxie

May I ask why? Doesn't FDISR have the capability to restore all configuration after each reboot?

And... wouldn't Deep Freeze achieve the same thing?

Also, if my above understanding is wrong, mind recommending me an ideal setup for cybercafe operations?

 

how about try the speed of Rollback Rx.

 

I'm a bit confused Peter, but how does the combo provide speed? How does shadowdefender make it faster?

 

IMO, imaging feature of Rollback Rx is more reliable compare to ATI10...and that is base on my actual experience after i do bare metal recovery using Rollback Rx 8.1 and ATI10....don't know yet with SP though.
