    A few users have reported browser crashes when ExploitShield is installed alongside things such as Comodo, Webroot or Rapport. What is your other security software?

    I absolutely love the concept behind ExploitShield and would love to use it, but, it has a few compatibility issues with other security products. This is the only thing that keeps me away from using it, at least for now.

    For the time being, I use EMET as my protection against exploits.

    Once ExploitShield as well as other companies nail down the compatibility issues...I shall return.

    EDIT: Looks like I returned sooner than I expected, I got rid of Comodo Firewall and all works well now.

    The objective of ExploitShield beta

    I'm curious. Is this in the plans for future beta(s) or are you guys going to focus on releasing a stable release prior to implementing the above-mentioned?

    It's actually two separate development lines.

    ExploitShield Corporate Edition already has some kernel-land hooks. Some of the Corp Edition kernel hooks and features might end up in Browser Edition in the future, depending on how exploits evolve and the need to do so to keep Browser Edition effective against exploits in-the-wild.

    Any plans to put in some "cloud" features to help keep up with new exploits? Home versions of these types of apps often have these things to get early warning and help keep up, since home users are often more likely to encounter these things.

    This is not necessary with ExploitShield as it is with antivirus for example. ExploitShield is 100% proactive, meaning that it does not rely on signature updates to detect vulnerability exploits. For example you could use a year-old ExploitShield version and it will still protect against all the IE and Java 0days that have been so publiziced during these last few months. There's sample vids on our YouTube channel which show old ExploitShield versions blocking recent 0days.

    I understand. However, I know some products add such features just to collect threat data for research; better than honeypots or searching manually :)

    I just want to extend a personal thanks to everyone that's putting in the time & effort to test this product and iron out the wrinkles... because I'm VERY interested in it once there's a stable/final build and it's matured. The compatibility problem with Comodo for certain must be resolved if I'm to use it. If I had a test machine and the time, I'd help out too.

    This really is the most promising thing I've seen come around for awhile, probably since Sandboxie. Great as either a companion to EMET, or for people like me that refuse to put .NET Framework on their boxes as a substitute for EMET.

    Keep up the great work gang...

    Also I'd like to know, will the Corporate Edition be available for sale to home users? Or do you need to purchase like a certain number of licenses to obtain it? Because it seems like there's so many more features to it... features that would benefit the average Joe too, not just IT people. And I'd like to have them if possible over the Browser edition.

    Thanks

    Oh, I see what you mean. Yes ExploitShield Browser Edition already submits information to us of exploit blocking events. You can see the real-time feed of that info on our site (although we are having problems with the backend now and its not as updated as it should. Will be fixed in the next few days). The Corportate Edition does not submit information for obvious reasons.

    @luciddream, as time goes by and on an as-needed basis we will add features from the Corporate to the Browser Edition. Also we are thinking about a Pro Edition based on Corportate. But all this will have to wait until after the beta testing period.

    First I now have ES running in two laptops and one desktop. Probably go on the other desktop this weekend. All are running in Sandboxie thanks to the kind soul who posted the Sandboxie tweak.

    Question. I have a block on a video on AOL. I've watched video's there a bunch with never an issue. I tried another video with no issue, then cleared the ES log, and went back and the video played. It was on Adobe Flash.

    So if ES blocks something I think is good, how do I get it to let it run short of turning ES off?

    What kind of block did you get? I mean what did it say on the block event under the ExploitShield LOG tab? Also if you can PM me your computer details (OS, Flash version, etc.) and the URL of the video I can try to replicate it.

    For now there's nothing you can do except stop ES and then start it again when encountering an FP. For future versions we will develop a built-in local exclusion system to manage FPs.

    Hello,

    I am having an uninstall problem. Every previous time that I have uninstalled ES, a task has been left behind in the scheduler. It has never been a problem before as I just deleted it through the scheduler GUI. Well this time I cannot get rid of it. When I try to delete it, I am told it is in use and it will not delete. There are no ES files left anywhere on my system and all other registry entries are deleted also. I even tried reinstalling but end up with the same results. How can I get this task deleted from the scheduler? If I knew what to delete maybe if I tried a delete on reboot, I could get rid of it. Any ideas?

    Sorry, disregard above post. After several reboots, I finally was able to delete the task from the scheduler. I do not know why it finally was able to be deleted (or not deleted for that matter), but it is now gone. I do not know on uninstalling ES, and this task always being left behind is unique to my system or not. You may want to look at the uninstaller and see if it is actually deleting this task. It might be a bug...

    Hey pete. Could you link me where that tweak is? I've been using this for a day and haven't noticed any error's or conflicts. What were you getting?
