[QUOTE="Deleted member 178, post: 425909"] Hi guys , NoViruThanks , creators of the formidable anti-executable ExeRadarPro (aka ERP) has released a new tool (still in beta but functionning) called Smart Object Blocker. you can find it here: [URL="http://www.novirusthanks.org/products/smart-object-blocker/"]NoVirusThanks Smart Object Blocker - NoVirusThanks[/URL] [U][B]What is it ? [/B][/U] Smart Object Blocker (aka SOB) is an anti-executable like ERP , the difference is it also monitors Dll and drivers in addition of processes. [B][U]How it looks like? [/U][/B] at the moment it is just a basic interface, not even a GUI. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iidT91l.jpg[/IMG] [U][B]Is it heavy on system ?[/B][/U] not at all , you can't even feel it [B][U]How do we use it? [/U][/B] Actually, you have to [B]write [/B]your own rules using wildcards in .db files , there is no popups to click , so it seems laborious to use (remember it is a beta); but once you get the trick , you will understand how powerful this product is. there an example and explanation: Personally i used those rules to block EVERY processes/dll/drivers located on my D: partition : [CODE] Block rules: Process.db: [%PROCESS%: D:\*] [%FILEPATH%: D:\*] Drivers.db: [%FILE%: D:\*] Dll.db: [%FILE%: D:\*][/CODE] then i tested against a portable app (DNS Jumper) to simulate a malware (DNS jumper allows you to change the DNS setting of your computer , behavior often used by malwares), there the result: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/OXycCuB.png[/IMG] [B][U]It seems complicated to use...[/U][/B] for the moment , it is complicated because you don't have a GUI , but that will change in the future. Actually it is mostly a new toy for advanced users to play with :D [B][U]So what the benefit of SOB, i still don't get it? [/U][/B] SOB as said earlier will block any process/dll/drivers , those are components of any programs and malwares. since you can create personal and customized rules yourself ; you have TOTAL control of your system. [B][U]So i'm interested but i'm not an advanced user, im willing to learn; what should i do?[/U][/B] in your case , use a Virtual Machine or an old computer and install it, then try to learn how to write the rules. you will have lot of explanations and example by following this [B][URL='http://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/smart-object-blocker-block-exe-dll-drivers.378369/']thread [/URL][/B]on Wilders . [B][U]Conclusion [/U][/B] More i use it , more i like it ; i like to be in TOTAL CONTROL of my system without any resources hindrances. This soft is very promising with endless possibilities.
