Title: Nod32 + Spyware doctor - active protection settings?
Post by: AvengerUK on Sep 08, 2007, 10:11:54
Hey all,

Im using the AMON and IMON on Nod32, and i think i ought to enable spyware doctor's "onguard" protection - however, as some of spyware doctors onguard stuff might do the same job as AMON/IMON, im not sure what components of spyware doctor to run (as, i obviously dont want to have a conflict!)

- Would anyone happen to know what onguard settings i can use, that are beneficial yet wont interefere with AMON/IMON or vice versa?

Thanks :)

Sorry, no. :( I had problems with Spyware Doctor, so took it off my machine...

:o  - what went wrong with it? - I have it installed, run the odd scan, and shut it down - seems to work ok (although that said, ive never left it running!)

To be honest, I cannot remember, I just know it wasn't doing what it was supposed to do.

In my case, it clashed with browsers and caused them to shut down, both IE6 and FF.

I don't use either, but much as I hate to point you elsewhere, if you want a quick answer, I would suggest you try here (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=16).

No better place for NOD advice, Simon.
