[QUOTE="Nightwalker, post: 883399, member: 23015"] That is exactly what I think default-deny is for me as a home user, idiotic and annoying; I dont need a tool to babysit me and stop what I want to run in my PC. If I want and need to run "[B][I]suspicious file that has some potential utility.exe" [/I][/B]what I want is a good antivirus with a great behavior blocker to save me if the file is not what I was looking for. Default-deny is much cheaper and lower resource usage friendly than antivirus solutions, but antivirus can make a definitive diagnostic in files and thats why the market for the latter is strong and alive while we dont have standalone HIPS anymore and solutions like VS has a small niche market.
