[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 775502"] Good job [USER=53544]@RoboMan[/USER]! I agree, this was never designed to improve WD antimalware capabilities, it's just to protect the system from any undetected vulnerabilities that could be present in WD itself. Personally I think all vendors should implement something like this. They all have hooks deep inside the OS, that if vulnerable, could allow hackers to compromise the system. I was browsing the Eset forum not long ago and they mentioned that they are working on something similar for their products, so we will see if this becomes the norm going forward. While WD wasn't the first to implement this, it's a good feature to have. [/QUOTE]
