Crystal Security 3.5

[thepierrezou]

Why are you deleted the option for use personal virustotal API key ?
With the stable version when i go to a folder containing malwares i have an alert but with this beta i don't have alert.
I have an alert only at execution.
The feature for view the detection on virustotal is good too on the stable. Please add this to the beta.
If you can add a click right >> scan with crystal , it would be verry good
A custom scan in the UI too

@thepierrezou
Thank you for the feedback and suggestions.

Why are you deleted the option for use personal virustotal API key ?

The program API key has higher limits (10 requests per minute vs 4 requests per minute). Good question.

Interesting... Are you sure? Because file detection method is same in the beta. Maybe you moved folder or files.. ..because only changed, modified, created, copied or launched files/apps will be detected and analyzed automatically if protection is enabled.

The feature for view the detection on virustotal is good too on the stable. Please add this to the beta.

Okay, VirusTotal report link and internal database results will be displayed on Notification window.

If you can add a click right >> scan with crystal , it would be verry good

Yes, Context-menu scan will be added very soon.

You should restore that option, my key allows 40 requests per minute...

Thanks for this anwser
I don't know if it's comodo or avira who have conflict with crystal but the realtime protection is verry buggy (with this beta)
I have Comodo firewall with avira on win 8.1 updated 64 bits

Hmm.. Okay.. I'll think about it and let you know.

Welcome! Maybe you can temporarily turn off Comodo and Avira and then start Crystal Security?

Please when a malware is catch suspend the malicious process.
And add an option for alert at foreground.
EDIT:if you can add an option for remove the detection of .zip it would be good
Thanks

Thank you for the interest.

Actually Crystal Security already should stop malicious process after detection... Sometimes it fails.. but I'll do my best to improve active malware/process termination.

And add an option for alert at foreground.

You can already set to show notification about Safe, Unsafe, Suspicious or Unknown files.
Take a look (uploaded screenshot of Unsafe foreground notification):

Is it correct that you want to skip .zip file monitoring/detection by default? I am not sure about it..
User is able to manually configure what file types to scan and also what areas to scan.

Ok thanks for you work and keep hard working on it

I think he meant Crystal Security doesn't suspend the process while it displays the alert, it's still running. The process is killed when you block it.

Thanks bro! Now I understand (sensitive information). What do you suggest?
Should I remove archive files detection?

@thepierrezou

Ok thanks for you work and keep hard working on it

I will do my best.

Should I remove archive files detection?

Your app should be able to extract archives and check only files inside it that have an appropriate extension.

Agree with you about archive files extraction. I'll try to add this feature ASAP.

Add .vbs detection please
Thanks

 

[Kardo Kristal]

Thanks

Okay, default file types list will be extended.

 

[Malware1]

Okay, default file types list will be extended.

Did you add these extensions as I requested in the past?

Can you add these extensions to the default list?

.pif
.scr
.com
.cmd
.cpl
.7z

(except 7z at the moment)

You should also add .dll, .sys

When I click 'Add' on uploads, overview, whitelist, blacklist tabs the window title is Open XML file.

Yes. Default file types list:

Bug confirmed and will be fixed. Thanks.

Unfortunately the realtime protection is very buggy, I sometimes need to restart the application because it stops scanning new files.

I suspect it could be related to the limits of the API key, does the program wait a minute when it reaches 10 requests?

 

[Kardo Kristal]

@Malware1 Quick reply: I'll ask some additional information from you about this issue tomorrow because here is night and I should get some sleep. Thanks for the info, I'll perform some tests tomorrow on several computers. I'll also answer to your question tomorrow.

For now, good night

Yep, correct, just checked. Limit checker will be added in the next version.
