    thank you :)


    why there is no learing mode for driver or service instialltion?
    because if I need to install new software some time it need to install driver , the instialltion will damege and i need to stop BLOCK ROOTKIT INSTALLITION and install again
    if learing mode allow driver instialltion it will be better :)
    or they use differnet level of learing mode
    like first learing mode allow every thing exept global protection option
    and the second learing mode allow every thing + driver instialltion
    .....learing mode allow every thing + global protection option

    SpySweeper also needs to install a service/driver and as Bubba has said allow the .exe as it is a part of a trusted program.
    A few security programs show this type of behaviour and it is usually the program just checking to make sure it can terminate a process as this may be necessary to stop malware.
