Window Blinds all time making screenshots

My securyti program DefenseWall,when launched Firefox or Internet Explorer,reporting about attempt to make screenshots(virus-keylogger behaviour),this happens after installing Window Blinds,when WB unloaded no more attempts to make screenshots.

This is normal?

Sorry for my english...

no

WB doesn't keylog or take screenshots

could be false positive

or bad file

open WB configure - click system info tab - click copy text button - ctrl+v here

Are you using a WB skin with blur effects on the titlebars?

If so the blur effect may be causing DefenseWall to log those warnings.  If it is possible to disable that detection in all apps I would do so.

disabling skin bluring not helping,only way is or unload WB or exclude app from skining,all open programs taking screenshots-Firefox,IE,uTorrent,only Google Chrome Dev.v3 not making screenshots(bcs not skined?)...

If i starting uTorrent from tray icon-no screenshots,but if i opening main window,begins screenshots...

All I can suggest is disabling that feature of DefenseWall or if thats not possible you could try contacting them to see if they can stop their app being oversensitive.

WindowBlinds is not a virus or a keylogger.

As Safe as you can get anywhere ! I put it on every PC I build and most that I work on as well!

Stardock is a legit company who makes their living off of customizing PC GUI's.. They would not make or use keyloggers,viruses etc as they would be held responsible for damages incurred. Which would negate the whole reason their in buisness, to make money,, not loose it.

Uninstall your firefox - delete all files and reinstall firefox... then try wb again... I think you have a script running in firefox causing all this and that security program is IDing the wrong  program due to the script using firefox.

Also go here and scan that system for bugs or whatever to get a complete result.

I believe your security program is completely wrong and you need a second opinion from another to verify what is happening.

Good luck

Also are you using the free version of WB or paid version?

I think maybe the WB prog needs updating, but...also depends where it was downloaded from. Henriss...are you using Impulse to update?

Very strange ... just noticed mine too and it is 03/24 accross the board with only a few seconds difference in exe or dll's. That screen.exe date Henriss has is something worth looking at I believe.

Henriss where did you get the download for that WB you have there?

You either had a trial or a crack installed at some point. If you want this done right you're going to have use that 'piece of shit'. Until you get WB straightened away, conversation on your other apps is moot.

Why are people talking about cracks?

The guys issue isn't linked to piracy and I don't think there is anything wrong with his file dates anyway.

Neil: the only one that said "crack" was me and since he now owns the software it makes no difference. I wasn't "linking" him to anything.

Are you telling me those dates are correct for that build?

Reply #25 Top

The standalone install and the Impulse installer sometimes have slightly different dates (don't ask why!)
