[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 751513, member: 51905"] I heard Heimdal created a loopback DNS localhost and start filtering internet traffic it works similarly to our AV's web filter but it continuously modifies the DNS server to 127.7.7.3 to prevent malwares from hijacking our DNS I'm not sure if it filters in DNS level or changing DNS is just how it works I do think it has heuristics but not as strong as other well-known AVs: kaspersky, forticlient, sophos, (bitdefender, avast?)
