[QUOTE="Der.Reisende, post: 993741, member: 32430"] As for QuickHeal, yes, but there were still plenty of threats breaking trough. K7 cannot be tweaked a lot (only HIPS, BB cannot). Did not lead to noticeable benefits tweaking HIPS. Both K7 and QuickHeal are on the weaker side speaking of Firewall. QuickHeal autotrusts signed files, so does K7. K7 does not have an option to ask first (prompts however appear for untrusted, not-seen-before outbounds - if configured so, default is autoallow), processes need to be blacklisted manually. K7 updates arrive at least hourly with good detection rate (for .exe, almost none for scripts), QuickHeal 2-3 times a day, most of the time, files are detected widely and still unknown to QuickHeal (all file types, especially .exe). Configs for K7 and QuickHeal, both maxed out: [SPOILER="Custom Settings - K7"] [U]eMail:[/U] Enable Worm Blocking, Scan outgoing eMails [U]Scanner:[/U] also Scan Memory, Tracking Cookies, Unwanted Registry Entries, Unwanted Files [U]System Monitor:[/U] Custom Level of Protection (actually all boxes are activated by default or because of "High" setting used before) Always Prompt if a new Software is installed when changes are found Do not automatically allow signed files / recognized by the System Monitor [U]Firewall: [/U] Ask for outbound connections of non-whitelisted apps Intrusion Rules: Activate also SMB Exploit Detection 1, HTTP Server Exploit Detection 1 and FTP Server Exploit Detection 1 [U]Data Locker ([B]custom settings[/B]):[/U] Do[B] [U]not[/U] [/B]use SmartAnalysis to discover Trusted Applications Trusted by Data Locker before setting turned off: C:\Windows\system32\BackgroundTaskHost.exe C:\Windows\system32\BackgroundTaskHost.exe C:\Windows\system32\RuntimeBroker.exe C:\Windows\system32\PickerHost.exe (=Snipping Tool to create screenshots) C:\Windows\system32\SnippingTool.exe (=Snipping Tool to create screenshots) C:\Windows\explorer.exe C:\ProgramFiles\SoftMaker Office 2021\TextMaker.exe C:\ProgramFiles\SoftMaker Office 2021\PlanMaker.exe C:\ProgramFiles\SoftMaker Office 2021\Presentations.exe C:\Users\Der.Reisende\Desktop\TCP_PE_AR_2o\HitmanPro_64.exe C:\Windows\System32\mspaint.exe [U]Additional folders:[/U] C://: Videos, Music, Desktop: TCP_PE_AR_2o; D://: Bait Data Locker by default protects Pictures and Documents against writing performances by processes not whitelisted as above.
