WinPatrol is an all-purpose utilty designed to increase the performance and usability of your computer. It's FREE and has been assisting computer users for over ten years.

 

What's New? 15.9.2008

 

 

• Explorer Integration of PLUS Info...

  One of the main features of WinPatrol PLUS is the ability to look up information for strange filenames. We now have over 19 thousand descriptions available in a form that mere humans can understand. Our new WinPatrol now adds the ability to research programs to any executable on your system directly from Windows Explorer.

• Quicker Access to PLUS Info

  In previous versions of WinPatrol we shipped PLUS descriptions on some of the most popular file requests. As our database grew and things changed it became obvious that we would never be installing our entire database on local machines. Our new version removes the check for local PLUS data saving you from unnecessary access to your hard drive and speeds up access to our online database

• Bug Fix: Firefox 3 Cookies

  At this time WinPatrol hasn't been updated to manage cookies in Firefox 3. Cookies in Firefox 3 use a database method called SQlite which is completely different then its old plain cookies.txt file. We've removed the option if Firefox 3 or greater is detected so there is no confusion.

• Bug Fix: AppInit_DLL

  One rarely used startup location frequently used by malware is a registry key AppInit_DLL found at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows. This key is now also used by security programs as way to hide from users and malware. WinPatrol has always monitored this location successfully but recently the over use of this location helped us find a bug in the way we parsed this key. Users of Kaspersky Internet Security were the first to discover this problem because KIS 2009 actually stores four separate DLL's in this location.

  In previous versions of WinPatrol Scotty would barf on three files or more.

I have to update my USB Flash Wristband with the new WinPatrol setup program: Woof. Woof.
