[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 717006, member: 7463"] Hi Guys- a couple of things: 1). Regarding the Spyshelter test- yeah it is odd that for this SPECIFIC file under Win10 it will be knocked back to PL. This is actually less of an issue (actually not an issue at all) than in times past. As I mentioned earlier and elsewhere the base protection of Containment has been upped. For example, formerly a ransomware file would have the ability to change the Desktop Wallpaper under the PL setting whereas currently it can't even do this. Personally I find this issue trivial in the extreme, but what do I know? 2). Regarding the setting "Do Not Show Privilege Elevation Alerts"- this has to do with popups and not protection. I'm gonna try to put out a really quick video about it soon. The issue here for me is that in my video if I suppress popups there are those that really want them, and it I allow them there are those (like me) who wonder why they are allowed. 3). Finally again about Spyshelter- and this comment is only for total Virtualization Newbies- You may notice that when run in Comodo's Sandbox Spyshelter thinks that it succeeds when you run the System Protection tests. This is only because Spyshelter, running within Containment, can only "see" things within that environment. So although stuff changes in the virtual environment that can be flushed like garbage nothing is actually done to your actual system. [/QUOTE]
