FortiClient 6.0.0 (Windows)

[oldschool]

probably sounds a bit unsure when sitting behind a million dollars worth of IT-security. Rest a sure, it is not you nor the Forticlient executable it is openload.co triggering the warning.

Nano Adblocker blocked it as well with filter: 1hosts.

I'm curious how much work is it configuring this as some of you are suggesting?

Forticlient? The XML documentation is good and XML is one of the easiest to read markup languages for people out side IT. So most power users will figure the config file out in 20 minutes, may be an hour tops

I don't think I qualify as a power user. I'm a level 1.

Hey! Please.

I have a doubt, I must be doing something wrong, since I can not activate the Sandbox service
In <use_sandbox_signatures>1</use_sandbox_signatures> I changed the value from 0 to 1, but I guess I should do something else because when I activate the service in "malware protection" and go back to the initial window of Forticlient the service appears disabled.

Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance

Since that's an opensource file hosting site it can surely be used to host malware (although probably not common since Openload does scan for malware) Proper web filtration products won't flag it because they wouldn't block the TLD and risk false positives (like this). Malwarebytes used the worst possible methods for web filtration.

If you don't have a FortiSandbox, the sandbox module only lets you check quarantined items.
<use_sandbox_signatures>1</use_sandbox_signatures> means your AV will use signatures coming from other users' FortiSandboxes

Thanks @imuade for your reply. You are very kind

Has anyone using this noticed the extreme performance improvements?

You should see more rapid system shutdowns/boots. Browsing improvements with a near-zero-weight Web filtration. Etc. There were a lot of backend performance improvements done with this latest version. (6.0.2.0128)

There isn't anymore possibilities disable fortianalytics just using GUI. It have to do using configure .conf file.

New version also tried download Sandbox Signatures, but can't do that anymore?

I'm currently running 6.0.1.0099. does FC autoupdate to 6.0.2..? or do I need to DL and install. if so, install over the top?? sorry if this was already asked and answered, I've been away for a week or so.

RIght now using the Combo of this (settings tweaked)

Only if you have that setting checked in the unlocked settings area. FC is designed to also function under LTS environments where you do not want updates, hence by default, actual program updates are disabled. (but protection modules and signature updates are always on)

@ForgottenSeer 58943
Just some quick questions, I ran a quick scan last night which never finished scanning and "Items Scanned" only showed 0 items being scanned the whole time. Isn't "Items Scanned" supposed to show what is being scanned and where it is at the moment during a scan? When trying to pause the scan I got a "Program is not Responding". I ended up having to do a soft reset as nothing would respond including task manager. Is there any issues between FortiClient and Faronics Deep Freeze or any other software that I'm not aware of ? Thanks Again !

Today started to get 'Blocked (Unknown)' websites, I assume this isn't related to "Unrated" ones. So basically I changed

<action_when_unavailable>deny</action_when_unavailable>

from default 'deny' to 'monitor', so websites still would be filtered instead of 'allow' and unfiltered. Not sure if I done it right, but my issue is gone.

I'm just running forticlient free v6.0.2.0128 web security & vulnerability scan. Where do you look to find if there's a version update. "About" shows Engine status v2.00026 and signatures 1.00172 both up to date, but searching at fortinet I'm not finding anything that shows me the current app version. Where, if anywhere, is that info found? ie am I running the most current version of forticlient?

 

[Antimalware18]

Anyone know how to get "submit for analysis" working? everytime I try to right-click submit a file to them it alway ends with "Failed to send file"

 

[Moonhorse]

Theres something wrong with the forticlient web filter currently
It forces youtube to run on restricted mode ( adult filter ) and i really didnt found out any other way to fix this issue than turn it off

Can't wait to update this on mine when it installs. Unless it already has.

Unrated sites should never be blocked or that setting will cause major grief.

The setting is there for restrictive corporate/enterprise/govt. systems that restrict access to unknown/unquantified entities. A consumer should never do this as illustrated above. It can block everything, even Windows Updates at times. Since a corporate network probably pushes from WSUS anyway.
