Re: Replacing antivirus soft with a real IDS/IPS

Like the concept of Core Force but haven't had any success with it. Have
installed on it on two Windows XP machines, both fully patched and
up-to-date. First box crashed with blue screen of death, something I
haven't seen in a long time with XP. Second box (my home box) went into a
reboot loop; had to use Safe Mode and whack Core Force to get up again.
Hope the next version is stable because, as I said, I like the concept...

CL,
You might want to take a look at coreForce[1].
>From their "About" page.
CORE FORCE can be used to:
- Protect your computer from compromises by worms, virus and email-borne
malware
- Prevent your computer from being used as a staging point to amplify
attacks and compromise others
- Prevent exploitation of known bugs in the operating system and
applications running on your computer
- Prevent exploitation of unknown bugs (0-day) in the operating system
and applications running on your computer
- Detect and prevent execution of adware, spyware, trojan horses and
other malware on you computer
HTH,
Albert Gonzalez
