[QUOTE="Fuzzfas, post: 854641, member: 4553"] WinPatrol Plus can't stop even the simplest malware. But it's a general purpose notifier about registry startup and services. Its purpose goes beyond malware. For example, you install a new software and it runs a gazillion of services? You don't need to search on your own in the task manager, Scotty will notify you immediately. Also, even if you trust something in say Secureaplus, but it does something unexpected (like a service or startup), Scotty is again useful, because it may put a suspicion that what you let install, wasn't exactly doing what you thought it would... OSArmor, i like it for the fact alone that blocks USB stick autorun.inf. While SecureAplus, if i understood correctly, can only allow or block read/write, but doesn't affect autoplay. For the most part they overlap about the rest options in OSArmor, but quite frankly i didn't care to compare closely and since they run well together, i don't really care. [/QUOTE]
