[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 687029, member: 32260"] You should turn ON <Protect Windows Folder>. It closes the loophole in Windows protection. This feature protects only some Windows subfolders that have no executables, but are [B]writable,[/B] so the malware can use it to drop executables and bypass whitelisting. Games are not using those folders to execute anything.:) Mostly, yes. Sometimes not. If you are curious, use the <Tools> - <Run SRP/Scripts EventLogView> to view blocked entries. [/QUOTE]
