Because of the PatchGuard I can’t implement as strong protection there as I do for x32 OSes. PatchGuard API is incomplete for me. So, my next step is not x64 variant, but outbound traffic control with 2.50 version.

@showtime33 – HIPS and Sandboxing are TOTALLY different. Sandboxing says….”I don’t care what you are, you’re untrusted to me”

HIPS rely’s on a “community database” + heuristics which…yes, can be defeated.

Why is everyone talking good about KIS 2009….in the past KIS HIPS have been defeated easily…..I myself had issues with full reg/file hips turned on using it…..
Personally I wish avira had a virtual hips…that would be cool…:)
In the meantime I really like defensewall…I believe it works good.

@Adam- DefenseWall do restrict untrusted processes activity according internal ruleset. So, malware won’t be restricted from any actions, but from the malicious ones- yes.

Can your product be used to execute malware for testing to see what effect the malware would make if executed in real life situation by a person.
Or will the malware be restricted by defensewall from performing any action whatsoever

@Subgud- if you have set everything as untrusted, “run as trusted” wont work for you as it requires to be sent only from a trusted process. That is why all the software you need to have untrusted is listed at the main site and program’s page. And that is why there is a built-in list of “already known that should be untrusted” apps.
