[QUOTE="yitworths, post: 751540, member: 36772"] so it does use 127.0.0.1 to port its dns. or something else? How did you come to notice that, in your router or network adapter settings or through some 3rd party such as website? If your rour network adapter doesn't show any sign of that dns, then probably it's using much better method to handle dns protection. Anyway, I still have a feeling that it relies mostly upon dns level blocking. Not that much on heuristic... dns level blocking ain't that much strong,btw & it's applicable to all not just to heimdal Kaspersky & Sophos- strong heuristic for sure. Sophos even has great database also. Forticlient has potential, not sure about how strong their heuristic though. BD & avast, mostly rely upon database.For web security database provides backbone for sure but without strong heuristic it useless against emerging threats. Every now & then, new domain is being spawned (registered or unregistered), it's unlikely that only database will provide immunity against newly appeared domain which is actually a mal-domain. Anyway, great work mate(y):emoji_beer: [/QUOTE]
