    Not really, but you could add ClearCloud or TrafficLight, SUMo or Secunia, and a disk imaging program.

    Internet Explorer has the most marketshare, making most websites support it.

    Lol, I was wondering the same thing as currently it is pretty much worthless. Now it is beta and I know Eset will get it right before releasing it but right now it really isnt that good.

    Now Aviras HIPS in 2012 will be, well, shhhhhhh.:D

    if you did under the hood you will how simple it is comparing to other big hips,it may not give much info on process activities but if you know what you are doing it should be simple and also the database will help alot if encounter with malware:D the pop up alert is simple plain and just alitle pop up:D it is cute and less hope they add a white list;)

    In automatic mode the HIPS in ESET version 5 Beta is still quite worthless indeed. But let's remember what Marcos said: the HIPS is heavily subject to evolution.
    What ESET did for the first beta is just making sure the mechanism is good, and I think it is good. Now they have to work on whitelisting to make it easier to use in both automatic mode and the other more interactive modes. Furthermore, they have to work on a balanced ruleset in the automatic mode, since most average users won't like ESET to ask a lot of questions.

    Very good to know!

    The paranoid mode (with the disabled community) is really a great program complementizer.

    Thank you for the test!
