[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 731460, member: 32260"] Any additional application installed outside the 'Program Files ...' folders makes an unnecessary hole in the default-deny security and will cause some problems. I think that you do not need the unifying software, because Windows is doing pretty well for finding wireless devices. Anyway, Hard_Configurator settings make difficult managing updates of some applications, if they are updating as standard user. That is also a common way of updating applications installed outside 'Program Files...'. In such cases, the updates should be applied manually using 'Run As SmartScreen' or the user has to turn OFF temporarily the protection.[B] The recommended way is avoiding such applications. That is the price of having advanced 0-day security.[/B] That is similar to avoiding unhealthy meals when applying a healthy diet.:)[B](y)[/B] [/QUOTE]
