Attractive GUI but I don't see a firewall component in there - only AV, HIPS-type controls and a switch for the Windows Firewall.

Very nice GUI though.

Maybe firewall module called "Anti Hacker"

Maybe, but the controls shown in the screenshot don't really relate to controlling the data flow through the NIC which is the purpose of a firewall. The only thing this is NIC related is the "Block Port Scans" option.

True as usual panic &  you are faster than anyone else... as usual 
Just wanna (if I may) correct "Maybe" part
It seems like it is not kinda belong to "The thing" & more over that can possibly create problems if not havoc if any real 3rd party Firewall is used in conjunction with the offered Software

Cheers!

i just tested the first beta. It is a very nice product. It is very low on system resources, it used about 10mb of ram. It uses 4 engines ("cloud engine", "KSC Cloud Heuristic Engine", "Blue Engine II", and "System Repair Engine") idk any details about these engines. The beta also has a behavior blocker that actually works unlike a lot of products on the market.

It has behaviour blocker or HIPS? i.e it warns for every process injection & registry modification like HIPS or warns for suspicious ones only like BB?

It has a firewall?

The RealTime protection is Cloud only or local too? And if local too, are the local signatures full or only the important/most prevailing & current ones only?

I believe the Anti-Hacker is the "fw" (that's why I've disabled it - since no matter what, I'm with CFW).
As for RealTime (as well as scanner) I think both use same logic which is both (local + cloud) CFW log shows it clearly.

Pros : COOL GUI (and installation), very light, speedy scan.

Cons : VERY LOW detection rate (I guess signatures needs larger users community or purchasing / integrating / adopting signatures from other AVs).

I am using kingsoft along with comodo internet security and i have not disabled anti-hacker and there is no issues yet
by the way i thin antihacker mostly only checks for unwanted settings that may give access to hackers its not a complete firewall

[ran_golde]

in my testing and most the testing iv seen the detection has been very good

1. txt contains the password.
2. I suggest to open RAR to a dedicated directory with RealTime of all active AVs turned off.
3. Turn on RealTime of all active AVs.
4. Conduct custom scan or use shell integration and compare with other AVs.

Please share findings
