agreed, I just gave him a chance to come to the same conclusion.

Kaspersky is great whether you get the AV or the full package, I have
used both before and really i found I have fewer problems using spybot
s&d adaware pro and a good firewall software the only thing i liked
better about kaspersky Internet suite is that the spyware protection
is realtime so that it will keep alot of different spyware from
infecting your system where as spybot and adaware are post-infection
removal tools (although spybot does have an immunize feature in my
experience it doesn't work very well, i've seen many systems infected
with spyware that is in the immunize list). KIS firewall is fairly top
notch as well, really verging on linux like paranoia which there is
nothing wrong with that either.
personally on my main machine that goes out via various protocols to
connect to work etc. i use KIS and still use spybot, adaware and about
a dozen other tools to keep the machines secure but on most of my
machines just kaspersky and spybot, etc.

It really comes down to how much security do you want/need for what
you are doing with your system personally i perfer the free software
and take the time to edit the services and such that system is using
to ensure security that way and I also have made sure to have a
firewall at the router level and at the system level.

Hope this helps

The bluescreen you get when calling
NtCreateProcess(NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL) rather looks like it's pure crap.

crap.

What business is this of yours as to what this person is posting?

It's to the point that you are misusing and abusing that no one is paying
attention to you anymore. And it's sad man it really is.

Are you no better than this?

Is this what you want?

Can you change or are you this messed up?

What is this supposed to mean? Is it Martian, or something?

What is this supposed to mean? Is it Martian, or something?

It is absolutely normal C code. The one you write and compile to audit the
security of the kernel drivers installed by a software that claims to
provide security.

As for the above, it allows a non-admin user to crash the a system with KAV
or KIS installed. Some other known defects are claimed to provide privilege
escalation.

Thanks for your informative reply. I am running the trial of KIS at the
moment, and really like it, although I really would like to see password
protection when a new program it hasn't seen before wants to connect to
the internet

Not sure what you mean by this, but if you have the firewall
(antihacker) section set to run in Training Mode it certainly detects
and warns of attempts by new programs to access the internet.

Yes I am in training mode, but you can accept the connection without
knowing the Kapersky password. This stems back from when the Mrs
downloaded a sort of virus, then she told ZoneAlarm to allow this new
program that appeared to access the internet. You can do a similar
thing in KIS as far as I can tell

Yes, I think you are right. Not aware that the password protection
extends to this. You could ask on the Kaspersky forum where the folks
are very responsive and will certainly be able to answer this question.
