Ah, thanks for the clarification. I’m not using HIPS either, currently.
Only running firewall and the auto sandbox, so that must be why I didn’t run into problems.
It contains the usermode API hooks relating to http and https/ssl functions in each supported web-browser to implement the webfiltering. Hence the reason why in the past HTTPS filtering wasn’t working in google chrome and the other bugs that caused chrome to crash e.g. bug 1787 and 1492. Remember this issue? and 527496 - chromium - An open-source project to help move the web forward. - Monorail
All right, updated, straight from the last 8.2, so skipped the previous one. Seems fine so far, with the usual exception of the HIPS rules which were again cleared. But I learned my lesson long ago, saved right before updating, waited for it to finish hogging CPU creating new ones on reboot, imported the save, seemed fine at first but then closed, reopened and checked again to see it have some additional entries at the top of the list again (happened last time too, system processes that normally should be covered by the group), imported a second time and that seems to have stuck.
Would still really like a fix for this, since it seems to happen often on reboots. Luckily for the past couple of months I only rebooted for Windows updates. Will see what happens when I’ll install those tomorrow now.
I recently tried using CIS Premium after a long time of not using it. When I installed the program successfully I noticed that CIS’ tray icon had disappeared randomly when I went to look for it in my tray area. I had since removed CIS and went back to Windows Defender, is there anyway I can report this issue without having to reinstall CIS? I would like to help CIS development leading into the v10 release.
