[QUOTE="Windows_Security, post: 544453, member: 50782"] [B]Why use VS in AUTO-pilot mode?[/B] VS in Smart mode (smart anti-executable mode) will block everything from user space when you are connected to the internet. Because most people go online as soon as they startup their PC and a lot of programs update from the internet, VS in SMART mode (the default) could interfere with updates. Therefore we use VS in AUTO-pilot mode which mimics the behaviour of a traditional antivirus.
