Posted: Tue Apr 25, 2006 10:25 am Post subject: Prevx1r and new Ewido4Beta |
|
|
As I've no doubt missed a heap of stuff has any other Px1 user tried Ewido4Beta?
Two initial preliminary observations:
1. New Ewido beta now appears to lock down the registry by attempting to disable the registry editor. Quite rightly (as currently designed)Px detects this....and blocks it!
Ok in Family addition you have access to Control Centre and then you can re-configure the appropriate policy from "prevent" to "query" but this is a pain to repeatedly do this for same program(s) so surely it really begs for an exclusion list you can update?
As well as an invidual license presumably still won't be able to change these policies?....yet!
2. Curiously some ewido modules appear flagged as amber on console (unknown) but green (or even unflagged!) on communal database?
Somehow I just don't believe they suddenly got updated! so I'm probably having one of my all too frequent geriatric mental outages and missing something... ??
Example screenshots 2-a/b attached.
Comments anyone please?

| Note the Ewido components flagged as Amber. Double clicking on these and typically you get the community database disposition for Ewido module as in 2-b |

Hi Tony,
You might be the first user to have run Ewido V4 in the community, thus it being firstly flagged as unknown on your box, and after the data has been submitted to the community, the centralized heuristics marking it good centrally. That would explain such behavior.
You raise a good point with your first suggestion, and we will look into it. _________________ Regards,
Jacques

Thanks Jacques
I thought that at first but dates of first report preceeded my install by 1 day so I was just curious as to how long it took Px to update a users local db - 24hrs to 72 hrs potentially it would seem.
While checking that I also found 1 or 2 anomalies with dates "First Seen" and "Last Seen" on Description Page apparently reflecting the first country reporting dates and not the aggregated dates of all countries?
So eg if you look up "Guard.exe" for EW4Beta on Db and see for yourself that Finland's dates appear to be used on Description page for "Last Seen" (currently 24April) instead of (what I expected to be) a constantly rolling date as new users loaded this application component in any country? So when I look today it currently shows 27 April (USA,Uraquay,Brazil) under Propagation notetab for "Last Seen" which conflicts with first page's Last Seen date!?.
Just another nit-picking observation!.

Thanks for noting it but realistically I wouldn't expect that to become anything more than a very minor nuisance issue until a lot more users with existing multiple real time monitors/reg protectors etc start to use Px. _________________ Regards Tony
