  Security level tab
 

Security level tab

In this tab of Options dialog you can select security level of Active Shield (you can also do it by clicking on one of the shields in main window) or customize shield - select custom set of security options.


Security level

Low - Active Shield will watch for system folders and executables.
Medium - Active Shield will watch for system folders, executables, autorun list and block keyboard hooks.
High - Active Shield will watch for system folders, executables, DLL's, autorun list, processes, and block keyboard and mouse hooks.

System folders - if checked, Active Shield will guard system folders and warn about any changes inside them (copy, creating or deletion of files). It will also try to restore deleted critical system files. This feature prevents a lot of trojans and spyware (even unknown) from installing in your system.

Autorun list - if checked, Active Shield will autorun list (the list of files that run automatically in Windows startup - a lot of trojans and spyware can be run from this place) and warn about new suspicious items in it.

Processes - if checked, Active Shield will guard currently ran processes and warn about malicious processes (using its database). This feature kill almost all known malicious programs when they are active.

Executables - if checked, Active Shield will guard executables in system memory. This feature kill almost all known malicious programs when they are trying to get active.

DLL - if checked, Active Shield will guard DLL's in system memory. This feature kill almost all known malicious programs when they are trying to get active.

Browser Settings - if checked, Active Shield will guard your browser's settings and alert when they are changed. This settings include home page, security options, etc.

BHOs (Browser Helper Objects) - if checked, Active Shield will guard and block all dangerous Browser Helper Objects in your system.


When High security level is selected, Active Shield can seldom hang your system up due to extra security actions. Please, use this security level at your own risk. We do not recommend using this level at home - only in places, which need extra high security.
