Emsisoft not detecting USB autorun virus

[Maxxx58]

No errors. Nothing. That's where I am scared.

Does this feature work before?

Not sure. Never inserted infected drive earlier.

Tomorrow, I will install and test on my machine

You can try it. It still is a good Anti-Virus. Fileguard, ssurf protection works great. Donno why USB protection not working. Rest of the product working fine with me.

I often plug-in USB Drive on my machine. I am really scared if it does not scan USB Drive automatically

No, fortunately it doesn't, it's a lose of time if the realtime protection works correctly.

Hi All,

I though Emsisoft has USB protection. But today I plugged in one of my friend's USB drive and it did nothing.

When I did right click scan it detected three High Risk item including Autorun.inf

Is anyone else facing similar issue? Strange that it does not have basic protection,

I am running windows 8.1 with Emsisoft Antimalware ( version 9.0.0.4799)

Anupam did you report this problem to emisoft? I always use mcshield ( default settings = less fp's) start up disabled ( as I only need it while using other's usb stick..

Agnitham does not work with Check Point VPN . Compatibility issue. And I need that VPN for my office work.

You mean realtime protection will protect me if USB Drive infected?

Yes. I dropped an email to support@emsisoft.com. Lets see what they are saying.

Do you use Emsisoft Anti-Malware with third-party firewall or you use default windows firewall?

Check my signature. I use GlassWire. It enhances the windows In-Built firewall. You can try it. It's very good firewall.

I am using AppGuard,which provides excellent USB protection

• Protection from USB Malware Attacks

AppGuard blocks these attacks by preventing autorun and script launches from USB devices. In the Medium Protection level, AppGuard will only permit digitally signed programs to run and will automatically Guard these programs.

Does it slow down my internet?

You guys ever heard of McShield ?

I do not like installing extra software for USB protection. I will go back to Avast if facing same issue again.

Does it slow down my internet?

I am using Emsisoft for more than 4 months now. Never faced any internet slowdown.

I know some information that It helps protecting USB Drive. But I don't love its UI

No, I asked about GlassWire firewall

No slowdown. It uses Windows firewall. So no compatibility issues, no slowdowns.
