    yes i need indeed for the browser registry protection (restricted mode)as private filrewall is not as powerfull for keyloggers as spyshelteris for screen shots grabs and keyboard protection ofcourse it gives you and alert for keyboard alert but for screenshots not a single pop up even in high setting:D
    imagine this is only a poc or test imagine what a real nasty keylogger can do:D

    OK.
    I was using Avast IS and spyshelter free.
    I was testing it out and something called animal.porn.sex.exe got through. Then spyshelter blocked it. I ran it again and spyshelter didn't stop it this time. I had 5 processes running when MBAM was ran. Thankfully I had things running under shadow mode.
    So.....Its back to what works.
    CIS 5, MBAM (RT) and Prevx SOL. Shadowdefender is on demand.

    Yeah I was kinda surprised myself. I did have the virtualized avast going. Maybe I hit the wrong button on something. It said blocked under the log too.

    Because I hadn't changed some settings on avast. I wanted to see if increasing the file shield settings would make a difference. Obviously it didn't. Avast didn't even make a peep.
