[QUOTE="SomeRandomCat, post: 924746, member: 90137"] I have been using it for a really long time, off and on. It is really solid for the average user. If you like to set the firewall / HIPS to 'high alert' / 'verbose' mode, then it will create a ton of rules and there is a known bug that when there is a huge amount of rules that there is sometimes an error during shutdown that 'forgets' some of them. As long as you use it in 'Safe mode' (auto allow trusted pre-whitelisted applications) and don't use 'high alert' mode (more detailed pop-ups / rules creation), then you won't run into this issue. The Sandbox can be a bit buggy (some programs take longer to start in the sandbox), so I just don't use it. I really believe it is the best one out there, but hopefully the next update they release will fix some of the bugs, and allow for more fine-tuned rule creation via the prompts. As far as I know, none of the bugs cause security issues and none of them will affect you if you use 'Safe mode', which is recommended anyways. The HIPS and firewall are really rock solid TBH.
