New Features in WinPatrol 2008

ActiveX Manager

According to eWeek.com WinPatrol is one of the 10 Free Must-Have Security Tools. "This ultimate watchdog program monitors Windows computers for signs of malicious hacker activity". The new WinPatrol 2008 continues to be the swiss army knife of Window utilities with the addition of its ActiveX manager.

It seems like every week more problems are reported in Quicktime, RealPlayer, Adobe Flash, Sun's Java or other 3rd party controls. Once the vulnerability is known the risk increases exponentially until a patch is available. WinPatrol 2008 takes the worry out of waiting for a patch to become available. When a vulnerability is found Scotty will let you disable or set the "kill-bit" on the appropriate control until a new one is made available.

WinPatrol will also monitor your system and let you know when new ActiveX components try to make their home on your system. If it’s not something you wanted WinPatrol will kill the new component before it can do any damage.

WinPatrol is a must-have tool:
It helps keep your system tray free of clutter and warns you when a program insists on loading at system boot-up. The latest version -- WinPatrol 2007 -- has Delayed Start, a smart feature that lets you delay launch of nonessential programs for up to an hour after the system boots, so Windows loads faster. That's ideal timing for applications such as backup programs. Also new is a right-click function that opens the startup program's folder in Windows Explorer. WinPatrol Plus costs $30 (and I promise you, it's worth the money)...
