[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 594243, member: 32260"] Using IE or Edge you have 2 types of alerts. The first is in the browser, when downloading the file. And, if malicious the download will be blocked. The second type is from 'SmartScreen App Reputation on the Run' (only in Windows 8+) when you run the file - it is system wide. Using other browsers you have only the second type alert, when you run the file. The first 6 examples in: ' [URL='http://demo.smartscreen.msft.net/']SmartScreen Demo[/URL]' can be seen only using IE or Edge when downloading the file or browsing (firs type of alerts). The last 2 examples in: '[URL='http://demo.smartscreen.msft.net/']SmartScreen Demo[/URL]' are system wide in Windows 8+ (second type of alerts). [/QUOTE]
