I uninstalled it coz I didn’t liked it created an entry in msconfig-startup & a process, why it needs these 2 things?
Also uninstall from add/remove uninstalled Privdog from IE only & corrupted Privdog in CD i.e 1 option from preferences disappeared & Realtime cookie blocking was enabled (default is disable)
Hi Sanya IV,
I have disabled the mentioned start-up process and I see no adverse effects.
I will try to find out more about the benefits or the function of this process.
Edit: I have sent Staff a PM in regards to the mentioned process.
Hi naren,
I haven’t tested this, but it sounds like a possible bug. Bug Reports - PrivDog
[b]Has this site hosted malware?[/b]
No, this site has not hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.
But PrivDogSetup.exe is detected as “malicious”. ???
Anyhow,

I too want the extension update only & not other stuffs. For a extension I dont like to have a autostart entry & everytime running process.
I dont use any extension in internet explorer, only CD.
Plzz give the choice to install PD for selected browsers during install. Why do you guys make it unnecessarily complicated. Its simple users would like to install for their choice of browsers only.
Lately Comodo is trying to push stuffs to users, its sad to see Comodo going other vendors way.
You are wondering about the trustedadssvc.exe process which has been put by the PrivDog
setup into the registry as a start-up process. Trustedadssvc.exe is a part of IE PrivDog plugin.
It is a servicing process which works in a background and provides to PrivDog IE plug in instances
an ability to save and share common data. So it constantly stays in the background to speed up
communications with plugin instances. Please don’t worry about it, it’s just a part of IE solution.
I am not quite sure what you mean here whether you checked that or not.
Don’t know about autorun entries though.
Privdog executable no longer showed up in Task Manager. May be it left behind files on the hd. I did not check that. I did check with Autoruns and found no traces of the PD executable.
