[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 840473, member: 32260"] From your first post, it follows that you have used H_C to configure SRP. If so, then do not use GPO (via gpedit.msc) to configure SRP and be cautious when using GPO to disable remote features. The H_C settings block most remote features (Remote Desktop & Remote Assistance, Remote Registry, and Remote Shell), probably more than you blocked with GPO. H_C uses Windows Policies directly via Windows Registry and these policies can be modified silently by GPO settings. Disabling autoplay is not necessary, because it will not run anything without user consent (AutoRun feature is disabled by default on Windows Vista SP2 and above). Disabling execution from removable disks is not necessary when using SRP Security Level set to Disallowed. If you use Avast, then WD Network Protection does not work. You can use Avast with Hardened Mode Aggressive and apply the special H_C profile for Avast, which allows EXE files (they are protected already by Avast Hardened Mode Aggressive).(y) [/QUOTE]
