[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 397218, member: 7463"] Today I’ll wrap up the video series with a quick test of Trend Micro Internet Security 2015. Although used at the Enterprise level as well as by Home users (a current darling at Wilders) I personally have never been impressed. Quite frankly I only did an initial run of TM just for personal chuckles, never expecting to do a video of it; then while varying the UAC levels I noticed something unusual. To change the action of UAC for individual applications is nothing unknown and can be easily done from the Admin prompt. But I don’t ever remember seeing a legitimate application decrease system-wide (without any documentation and/or alerts) a previously User set environmental variable and also suppress any notification from that variable. I thought it rather outrageous, and perhaps so will you (it is definitely more egregious than some program asking to change your Home Page to Yahoo). That being said, I hope you have enjoyed the videos and I hope to be back in a few months (should have been a few weeks but it seems some people don’t understand “Please don’t hold any Press Conferences until we have things in place”. Perhaps it should have been said in Chinese). M [MEDIA=youtube]B0p0l7UwdOg[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
