[QUOTE="danb, post: 956687, member: 62850"] The DefenderGuard feature reactivates DefenderUI [U][B]quickly[/B][/U] after something other than the user deactivates MD, for example malware. And also ensures that the realtime protections are running on DefenderUI startup. Whereas the Auto Reactivation feature reactivates DefenderUI after [B][U]the user[/U][/B] deactivates MD. In other words, if malware deactivates MD, we want quickly re-enable MD, but if the user deactivates MD, we want to reactivate MD at a slower interval specified by the user. I am still refining the timers so they do not interfere with each other and I am close. For example, if the user deactivates MD, we do not want the DefenderGuard timer to fire while Auto Reactivation waits 5+ minutes to reactivate MD. Yeah, Manages Exclusions is not ready yet, but it will be soon ;). Thank you! [/QUOTE]
