Yeah, thank you for the idea... we will have to do that. I just found a new graphic designer who is super talented, so let's see what he comes up with .

Cool, if were going to ride the VoodooShield hype train, we need to be kept entertained lol

Hi somebody can help i want to know how to manage vodooshield exclusions or white list for example if i add X program as a False positive how can i quit from exclusions?

4.08 is working good. No issues with whitelisting something & the nag screen popping up over & over for the same thing, as with previous build. Looking like this is going to be close to final now.

Oops, I recently found and fixed a bug that was probably causing some issues all along, so I wanted to release a new version that fixes this.

Do you guys remember when I was talking about adding the parent process check to VS? I added this check, but did forgot that before VS adds something to the whitelist, it checks to see if the item is in the whitelist or not… but the parent process check was not added to this check. So some items were not added to the whitelist, because VS already whitelisted that item with a different parent process.

Anyway, it is fixed now, sorry about that. FYI, VS does process name, process path, SHA-256 hash and parent process path comparison to check to see if the file is whitelisted or not. I would also add file size, but it can take a while to calculate file sizes for big files, and there are occasions when the file sizes do not match.

Thank you guys, have a great weekend!

Hi Dan 4.08 is running great.
Got 2 errors in the DeveloperLog.log:

You can remove individual entries from the Whitelist (and Quarantine) by right-clicking on the entry and selecting "Delete". Is that what you are asking?

 

[Aktiffiso]

Yes i refer that bro can you show me a scren shot

Very cool, thank you guys for letting me know! Yeah, I think we are getting very close now… there will still probably be a few bugs here and there that will trickle in, but I will fix them as we go.

So see, that was not so bad, huh? The beta test was just over a month, and this includes the time that I had to stop coding and build and secure a new server and move websites around. Considering it was a complete rewrite of all of the major components of VS, I am extremely happy with the outcome… this could have easily gone on for 4-6 months.

Now that VS’s code is in great shape and everything is running well, there probably will never be a large-scale beta test like this again for VS. We will certainly add features from time to time, but the beta tests will be quick and easy.

Thank you to everyone who stuck with me and VS for just over a month to work through this, I know who you are and I really appreciate it… so if any of you need a license or extension, please email me.

Thank you guys!

I don't know if this is related, but Chrome now launches downloaded zip files without complaining. I just downloaded 2 different zips and both came up without a notification. Out of curiosity, I tried an mp4 download, and it too launched without interruption. Guess I'll find out tomorrow if an overnight reboot changed things, but right now this looks good even with many of my installed programs sitting on "D drive".

Hmmm, interesting. That must be a beneficial side effect of performing parent process path comparison as well. A more secure lock and even higher usability... it is a win-win.

It is funny how things always work on in the end . Thank you for letting me know!

It looks like someone lost an Umbra and gained a Circuit. Just saying .

Same for Quarantine files.

Installed VS v4.08b without problems. Everything seems to be ok.
Thanks, dan!

 

[l0rdraiden]

Everything running fine here, 4.08, good job Dan

 

[Antarctica]

Hi Dan,
Installed V4.08b over the top and everything is running fine so far. You can be proud of your work Dan. Congrats!

Anyboy got any ideas as to why drag and drop scans and right click give a no internet connection? My firewall shows VS is connected.

This is really odd... but I am certain it is an easy fix. So what you are saying is that if you double click a non-whitelisted item to launch it, VS will block it and provide all of the file insight correctly, right? Then right after that, you drag and drop the file to VS, and you get the message you posted?

If so, can you please drag and drop a file to VS, the immediately go to your DeveloperLog.log (after you receive the error message), and search for the word "exception" at the bottom of the log. If there are any exceptions, can you please post them on here? This has to be a super easy fix.

BTW, I just wanted to mention that it truly is great to see you "old guys" that I have known for the last 5-6 years!!! It really means a lot that you guys are still supporting VS and myself after all of this time .

Still having problems here. Starting with the 4.0 betas each time the computer first boots it takes a snapshot then saves it, then the intro comes up to ask mode preference , works fine after that until I shut the computer down or restart it, it hangs for up to 5 seconds and then the screen elevates to ( this program is not allowing windows to shut down properly) the place where it's supposed to show what program is causing the problem is blank but it only does it when VS is installed.

VS 4.04b boots up without the snapshot and mode preference but still hangs at shutdown.

Windows 7 HP 64 Bit
Crystal Security
SysRestore = snapshot software

Appreciate this software and know you'll get it right.
