    WinPatrol (freeware)

    WinPatrol 18.0.2010.0 has been released

    Download from:
    Code:
    http://www.winpatrol.com/download.html
    Changelog:

    · Already a Startup Manager, Security Monitor, Task Manager, Education library & yet the new Custom WinPatrol v18 will have even more!

    Custom Registry Monitoring and Lock Down:
    · The newest version of confirms that WinPatrol is a must have addition to any traditional AntiVirus program. WinPatrol continues its tradition of being a first. The new custom Registry Lock feature could be a application all by itself but instead it will be integrated into the robust real-time monitoring of WinPatrol PLUS.

    · The most common threat to Windows based security has been the modification of secret and not-so-secret registry entries used by the operating system and most applications. Over the years malware authors have found ways to take control of a users system by tweaking various registry entries. Only experts with knowledge of programs like regedit.exe have stood a chance at protecting their systems.

    · Traditional security programs have played a cat and mouse game to keep up with newly discovered registry tweaks. Now with WinPatrol 2010 v18’s, newly discovered tweaks can be added immediately to WinPatrol’s real-time monitoring. Registry values can be manually added or included in a batch script file created by experts and other 3rd party developers.

    · Running completely in the background WinPatrol PLUS will monitor for changes and lock down specific registry entries so they can’t be changed.

    · WinPatrol already locks down AutoRun entries, FileType associations and a host of other system configurations. Now, users can pick and choose registry entries they decide should never change.

    · Not sure how the registry works? Online experts will create custom scripts to protect those configuration locations important to you.

    · Protection from ActiveX errors. WinPatrol lets you know when new ActiveX components are installed on your system. WinPatrol version 18 now includes this feature as bonus to PLUS members to protect novice users from accidently disabling critical ActiveX controls.

    · PLUS Code Security. Due to the large number of illegal keygen and pirate sites I've had to increase the verification of your name and PLUS codes. This may cause an occasional error with PLUS members using valid codes. This step is required to make sure our PLUS members can always access our website.

    · No need to Uninstall previous versions. Install the new WinPatrol in the same folder as your current version.

    WinPatrol 19.0.2010.0:



    WinPatrol v19 the "Cloud Edition":

    · What's so special about the WinPatrol Cloud ?
    · If "Cloud" sounds stupid and doesn't make sense, think "collaboration". The new version allows everyone in the WinPatrol community to safely share when something new works or doesn't work properly.
    · The WinPatrol Cloud Edition is considered a “Software-as-a-Service” version of cloud computing and relies on a collaboration approach to bring a huge value to all everyone in the WinPatrol community. Results detected by individual WinPatrol users are collected so everyone using WinPatrol can share their good and bad experiences.
    · Data from the WinPatrol version will benefit both FREE and PLUS users. PLUS

    WinPatrol FREE Features:
    · One part of the WinPatrol Cloud is a poll where the WinPatrol community of users can provide personal feedback on files that are detected. The poll data will be available to both FREE and PLUS users.

    WinPatrol PLUS Features:
    · The second part is based on software behavior and actions taken by both WinPatrol FREE and PLUS users. The WinPatrol cloud will track how users handle their decision to handle configuration changes. This information is accumulated continuously and will be available when requesting PLUS Info. It’s like the Millionaire's "Ask the Audience" feature.
    · Action based information is available now and in the future additional information on software behavior will help users decide if a program is worth keeping.
    · Faster Detection PLUS users will notice any changes are detected even quicker than ever.

    · Registry Monitoring Fixed errors monitoring DWord types. Registry monitoring is one of the newest features in WinPatrol and this fix will be useful for many of user provided suggestions.

    · Window Services Our new version also fixes some errors in updating Windows Services. When Services were first added to WinPatrol they were a brand new concept but not make up most of the resident programs running on your system.

    · What is Cloud Computing?
    · No need to Uninstall previous versions. Install the new WinPatrol in the same folder as your current version.

    WinPatrol 19.1.2010.1



    · Due to an increased number of illegal versions of WinPatrol being distributed on torrent and keygen sites this version has been enhanced to make it easier for legitimate users to activate their PLUS code. While legitimate users will have easier access, illegal users will be encouraged to upgrade.
    · Typical Example of illegal download site
    · HiJackLog updated to show correct description for Windows 7 even thought technically it's reported as version 6.
    · Setup program was fixed to turn off debug mode which created two text files which aren't needed.
