That's good. The reason I asked, is that sometimes people increase the heuristic level in antiviruses in order to get better protection. But doing so increases false positives.
Hi, Sorry for it. The shellcode detection is sensitive at the very beginning. We have optimized this feature now. Please click "check for updates" and tell me whether WVSX still flag this file as malicious or not. Thanks.
Hi, Please ping cloud1.wisevector.com or cloud2.wisevector.com to check the connection. If not using VPN, can you reach the web?
Ping works for those domains, but ping wisevector.com does not work. I can reach the website without VPN.
would be cool if both the base version and the extended version would be equally developed in their own areas WVSX base has great value in a layered approach to security, if you want to use a different firewall, for now it seams WVSX base is abandoned in favor of WVSX extended you do what you want, I am just expressing my wish
Hi@lucd If disable the Web Protection, Firewall and Network Intrusion Detection, WVSX will work like the base version.
WiseVector StopX v3.03 and v3.06, other versions not tested. i have Windows 10 pc, other security programs are: Eset Nod32 Antivirus, HitmanPro.Alert WiseVector full scan will freeze computer, and i need to do forced computer shutdown with button. (context menu opens, but task manager won't open. windows button sometimes work, but shutdown computer does nothing.) Last scanned item is: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.624F8B84B80_3.455.709.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\media\audio\fmodbanks\R1_Stingers_ ... it does not show full path, there are few, game is Forza Horizon 5, Xbox App installation. R1_Stingers_DE.bank R1_Stingers_FR.bank R1_Stingers_MX.bank Scanning those with context menu option will also freeze pc. Possible others too, because there are R2-7_Stingers_ too. I did send those files with your Upload File -option, but not sure if you get them. path and files are protected, like it's not possible to copy those files to desktop. (i did try to open that small file with notepad or wordpad, but pc was freezed. WiseVector realtime protection.) Files are dated 21.4, i played it 2-3 weeks ago. now my subscription to Xbox Game Pass for PC has ended, cannot update that game. edit: i installed Wisevector week ago, so its possible that you cannot play that game with Wisevector turned on. But i will find out that later. i'am gonna update subscription or buy that game. edit2: i also have v3.03 installed to another pc, FH5 also installed. other security programs: Microsoft Defender, HitmanPro.Alert. I have only done 1 full scan and it freezed. Not tested more with that, i need that computer next week. so i don't wanna crash it more. edit3: also, on pc1. i added this directory Exclusion: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.624F8B84B80_3.455.709.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\media\audio\fmodbanks but it was ignored by full scan and computer freezed on same spot.
Hi @ WiseVector Just done a quick scan and WiseVector StopX picked up rufus-3.18p.exe as a Trojan.Generic. Tested same file on Virus Total with no flagging of virus/trojan. Think you need to look at this and "adjust" Wisevector StopX settings. Thanks Terry
@WiseVector, I am experiencing way too many real-time protection FPs (default WVSX settings) and I continue to receive the very same real-time FP after I have excluded it! It also seems to me that the mechanism within the real-time notifier to report an FP is inoperative. All of this has been going on ever since v3.05 (now running v3.07).
A freeze bug has been reported https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-free-ai-driven-security.87965/post-991776 Anyone experienced the same or similar bug?
For any curious, WVSX 3.07 (real time off, HIPS and FW at Low) will detect and block the msdt.exe process called up by Follina.
