Get RegDefend v2.000 from the URL above, or if you have been using the public beta, simply perform an update from within the program.
It has been nearly 4 months since RegDefend v1.300 was released, so a lot of work has gone into this build. I'd like to thank everyone who helped contribute to this final version, to the beta testers, and the public who helped with testing and suggestions.
If you have RegDefend v1.300 you should UNINSTALL it prior to installing v2.000. If you are a registered customer, you can use the same registration details to register this version also.
-Redesigned the GUI, RegDefend now falls under the "Ghost Security Suite" product range -Easier to use due to unneeded complexity being removed -New custom flat look, which is maintained throughout interface -Designed for multiple security components (RegDefend being one) -Now includes an integrated updater -Color/Theme changes take place dynamically, no restart needed -New "Emerald Green" color theme added -Various statistics added
-New RegDefend Alert/Log window -Removed "current live log" setting and simply integrated it into a date based filtering system -Viewing old logs is now as simple as choosing the date you want to investigate -Logging now incorporates a "smart disk usage system" , which means log sizes are now at least 1/50th the size as previous versions over the same period of time -Reduced information in the listview to reduce clutter -Now show full alert information when an item is clicked upon
-Updated RegDefend alert/ask user window -Now show commandline of application -Can now KILL the process or the thread performing the registry operation. Should work regardless of any process protection you have, so be careful -Now show recommendations on what to do for each registry alert, along with other information -Improved layout and design to aid reading
-New Registry rules editor -Totally redesigned the interface, allowing easier creation/modification of rules -Application only rules added, allowing people to define rulesets for untrusted/unknown programs. For example you can block a program which is run in a certain location (temporary files, internet cache, etc) from accessing the registry. -Application rules can be filtered using both the command line (useful for svchost.exe/rundll32.exe) and with wildcards -Application rules can now use special strings to select the Windows directory, program files directory, internet cache, etc -Collapsed all of the .ghst files into a simple rdconfig.bin -Group ordering added -Rule ordering added -Rules editor is no longer the main part of the progam, which hides unneeded complexity from users who use the supplied rules -Now allow modification of every string the user can enter into the editor -Adding multiple rules into the editor is now easier -Added importing of RegDefend v1.3/v2.0 rules into the editor -Added exporting of RegDefend v2.0 rules -Improved wildcard handling, no longer have to manually set whether you used wildcards or not -Groups and rules can now have descriptions attached to them, to allow people who have no idea about registry locations to hopefully understand them better -Added the ability to move rules between groups through a right click menu
-New Ghost Security Suite driver -Incorporated RegDefend into a unified driver system -Added command line caching -Implemented Short File Name to Long File Name resolution -Implemented new rule reading system fixing a few issues whilst being faster -Added optimizations to rule list searching, can be up to 200% faster now than previous version -Added lots of speedups, with improved design and caches 下載:http://www.ghostsecurity.com/index.php?page=regdefend
RegDefend is a registry protection system for Windows XP, 2000 and 2003 RegDefend 是一個註冊表保護系統，支持Windows XP, 2000 和 2003
Features include :- Protecting the registry from unauthorized reading and modification Intercepting registry changes instead of polling for changes Very little CPU and Memory usage Works from the lowest level, unlike other programs
RegDefend is a kernel based registry protection system, designed to use as few resources as possible. Instead of polling the registry looking for changes, RegDefend intercepts the changes before they occur. RegDefend comes installed to protect registry autostarts and some special registry keys, custom rules can also be added.
The registry is a place where the operating system and applications you run store their settings and data. The registry should be protected because malicious software like viruses, trojans and worms use the registry to their advantage. The registry is the place where these programs allow themselves to be started everytime you turn your computer on. If they couldn't use the registry, the next time you rebooted they would no longer be active on your system.
RegDefend sits between the registry and applications which want to use it. If an application breaks any RegDefend rule that the user has setup then it will be blocked from doing what it wants.
Due to the way RegDefend works, it is only active when applications want to use the registry. This means there is virtually no performance loss having it protecting your system, unlike other registry protection systems which continually keep polling (reading) the registry to detect any changes. These other systems still allow malicious software to infect the registry, whereas RegDefend cannot be beaten.
