HitmanPro.ALERT Support and Discussion Thread

Thanks Peter. I couldn't find and can't find HitmanPro Alert v 3 and thus installed version 2.6.5 64 bit after I purchased HitmanPro for a 2 year license. I should be getting both of them being HitmanPro and HitmanPro Alert. Must have installed the wrong version? The 2.6.5 version seems to look quite different than v 3 after I saw a videopic of it? There isn't an advanced version in v 2.6.5. Perhaps I would need the link for v 3?

 

Erik, I just purchased today a 2 year license for HitmanPro at a reduced price but can't find HitmanPro Alert version 3 anywhere. I then downloaded v 2.6.5 Is Alert supposed to be included with the 2 year license with HitmanPro? I'm looking forward to your answer. Thanks!

 

Hi Peter. I just checked out post 2392 and also quite a few pages but can't find it. Thanks
Perhaps Erik can shed some light on it. If it's a beta then I am not prepared to install it though.

 

AFAIK the most recent build is 92 linked here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/thre...discussion-thread.324841/page-98#post-2414611

Is HMP.A compatible with Sandboxie? The green messages at the top including the slide-out box aren't showing up in Sbxied Chrome.

 

You need to do this:

When testing HMPA browser (safe browsing) protection does that include any protection for extensions or plugins you install in the browser?

 

Yes, all plugins loaded in the browser are protected. also some plugin-containers are also protected.

 

v3 hasn't been officially released yet, and all the features of the older version are free.

 

Thanks BoerenkoolMetWorst. I believe to have read somewhere that Alert v3 uses the same license # as HitmanPro and thus can be used for free if one has HitmanPro paid. That's why I thought that Alert 3 was released but couldn't find it. I'll wait then until its release.

Meanwhile I have HMP Alert v 2.6.5.77 installed.

 

Does HMPA 3.x auto-update itself?

And how do I add my custom apps ? It seems to have a few of my installed apps added but I want to add more (e.g. keepass or other backround-running apps).

Thanks

 

Thanks, after adding that setting HitmanPro.Alert is now working with Sandboxie.

And thank you for the sale, I bought a license. Does the 2 years start when it's purchased or can I activate the key when HMP.A is released?

edit: This (at SurfRight Support http://www.surfright.nl/en/support/) answers my question about when I can activate the HitmanPro key:
"BLACK FRIDAY OFFER If you make use of the special Black Friday offer, do not activate the new product key until your existing license expires. When you activate a new product key, the remaining license period will not be added to the new license term."

 

That's good to hear. Thanks.

 

Yes Alert 3 CTP4 and RC update itself.
The RC also protect KeePass and other password managers. RC will go out next week.

 

Thanks !

Btw the green border is bugged. I cant disable it?

 

Also what about the following apps:

CCleaner
Displayfusion/Multimon
Foobar
mIRC
Rainmeter
Skype
Steam
Teamspeak
Thunderbird
Virtualbox
Ventrilo
WinSCP/Putty/...

Basically common apps which either run in the backround or have to do a lot with moving/downloading/accessing files?

 

Out of the box HitmanPro protects Web Browsers, Office, PDF readers, Media viewers, Skype, Java and several Password managers (list is not complete). If you want to protect additional software, you can add it yourself (see post #2790 above).

 

HitmanPro.Alert CTP4 prevens Geforce Experience from starting.

Uninstalling HPA CTP4 fixes the problem. I tried disabling most protection in CTP4 but still prevented me from starting Geforce Experience. Geforce Experience gave me an error message: Couldn't create local connections. Please check if your firewall or anti-virus prevents this (or something similar).

Windows 8 x64

 

First off, I think you need a Geforce zxy or newer. So you might have a Geforce card that is too old to support Geforce Experience.

Anyway, Erik sent me a private build and it works fine now! Issue is fixed. Man that was fast work!

 

Updated my HitmanPro license via the 2 for 1 offer (thanks Erik & Mark ), and installed CTP4, with just WSA-C and PFW alongside. On first reboot hmpa.sys gave a BSOD, and on reboot Windows (7 hp SP1 32-bit) started up normally, all seems well subsequently. I've allowed HMPA in others (WSA & PFW)...but was wondering if you'd like the minidump, or any further advice? Thanks.

 

Note that there are three locations in WSA where files can be blocked - PC Security/block allow files, Identity Protection/application protection, and Utilities/system control/control active processes.
