[QUOTE="danb, post: 1085669, member: 62850"] Hey Guys, Here is the latest CyberLock! I figured out why the WhitelistCloud scan was taking forever and making the CPU fan spin louder on some machines, and this issue is completely resolved now. My scan was at around 600 seconds, now it is around 35. I have to continually reset my whitelist for development purposes, so my whitelists are always small, like around 200. FYI, WhitelistCloud typically scans around 4-5 items per second. Basically, when we added the extra blocked file types, a few of those types happened to be very large files, like 20 gigs or so. This issue started happening on my machine recently, and in my case it was .vhdx files that were 20 gigs. What was happening was that WhitelistCloud calculates the hash of these files during the scan, and well, it takes a very long time to calculate the has of a 20 gig file. Anyway, the fix was to ensure that only files that are actually WhitelistCloud file types are scanned by WhitelistCloud. There are also several other optimizations and tweaks, and I think we are in great shape for a public release, but if you guys find anything please let me know. The startup boost tweak has been removed as well. I am also still working on the WDAC Lockdown component. It looks like it will be finished for DefenderUI Pro in the next 4-5 days. Once everyone gets to experience this new feature, we can figure out if we should add it to CyberLock or not.
