[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 645284, member: 32260"] I made the test with blocked executables from the Bouncer Blacklist (including msiexec.exe and wusa.exe) on Windows Vista 32-bit (installed on VirtualBox): [B]Vista installed > Hard_Configurator installed (Block Sponsors) > Updated > SP1> Updated > SP2 > Updated[/B] With the above (maximum) Hard_Configurator settings the Windows was updated (171 updates). All updates were installed successfully. SRP blocked only one executable from the Bouncer blacklist (four times, without any visible issues): [B]regsvr32.exe[/B]. [B]As I mentioned in my previous post, msiexec.exe and many more system executables can safely bypass Hard_Configurator SRP settings, because they are running elevated. Only processes starting with medium (or lower) integrity level are stopped by such configured SRP.[/B] [/QUOTE]
