[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 775837, member: 51905"] I was using VS for more than a year and I finally ditched it due to slight system slowdown and too many popups prompting for decisions in autopilot mode. Yes, autopilot mode, for 1 year so I kinda know what I was talking about. In autopilot mode, it's because of the imperfectness of voodooAi, VS still prompts for decision. VoodooAi and virustotal API must be both safe (match certain criteria) so the file can be allowed without any prompt but because I don't live in US or Europe, our foreign programs are always prompted by VS => I was tired of this same for comodo firewall autosandbox. Most of our programs are not included in the comodo's trusted vendor list => unusable for novice users for English-speaking users, VS is perfect but not for Asian users because it generates too many prompts VS doesn't support my language => another reason I can't install it on other people's machines In my experience with some novice users who don't speak English, they 90% of the time clicking allow without reading what the message is. The same apply for windows's UAC=> they simple click Yes for everything because they want to run their programs I know about HMPA test but I don't mind it because it's unlikely home users will get these exploits. It's more realistic to block common attacks like exe, msi, phishing,... my SRP tweaks are too complement what syshardener, tweaked, misses, usually with powershell I use gpedit.msc to block execution of powershell.exe, some extra extensions like hta, ps1, com, scr, vbs, vb, vbe, jar, jse,... I think it's enough for those machines I don't put too many SRPs on these, I don't want them to have any trouble [/QUOTE]
