[QUOTE="plat, post: 846455, member: 74969"] Unless you know for a fact a bad guy is targeting you, you would be spending a bit of cash. So if running latest Windows 10, (like 1909), I would pass on HitmanPro.Alert. It's a powerful application but with a little bit of your time and effort, you can harden the OS effectively without money spent. It's what I did. If one is risky online, and/or working a lot with vulnerable software like flash player or old Java plugins, running Windows 7 past January 14, 2020, then HMP.A probably merits serious consideration. Based on my experience, one good update somewhere with resident security software and HMP.A could bork something or give you some humdingers of false positives. :poop: I kinda have anti-exploit withdrawal sometimes, though. Is anyone using Malwarebytes' standalone anti-exploit? Has that been tested anywhere recently, and if so, is it worth it to get? Does it work on Windows 10? [/QUOTE]
