[QUOTE="gorblimey, post: 783019, member: 65556"] @[B][USER=76794]Miss Onnellisuus[/USER][/B] - there is another thing needs to be put right with ZAM. For some strange reason I haven't figured yet, Zemana uses a randomly named file in a random path in [I]%user\temp%[/I], which sets off all sorts of alam bells on my box. Neither CryptoPrevent nor Voodoshield can detect a parent process for these upgrade/update files, so they get killed. The practice is very reminiscent of a lot of malware, and fills me with no confidence. It's the basic reason I uninstalled ZAM a week ago, along with no visible signs of activity from Zemana itself. It would be better to use a dedicated Zemana folder in [I]%users\roaming%[/I] for updates, and give the update a birth certificate. You never know, I could be persuaded to buy a licence, although ZAM only got used once a month as a fail-safe scanner. [/QUOTE]
