beach48 Posted March 14, 2017 ID:1108532 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hi. I use MBAM 3.0 & have been a customer for several years of several products. Two months ago I ran across a (fairly new I think) free program named "RansomFree"...from CyberReasom.com . I have been test driving it and have had no issues. All you people are so knowledgeable I'd like to ask for your input on this. Maybe it's not worth the trouble to be using it. And as always many thanks for all your guidance.

Peter2150 Posted March 14, 2017 ID:1108538 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I've tested it against real ransomware. It uses a honey pot approach and it isn't worth the effort in my opinion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy all the spam from all the mailing lists you are now "subscribed" to now. Now back to topic. I tried it once and passed every thing and a month later failed some of the tests. Best defense for any issue including ransomware is to keep current image backups on a external device that remains unplugged unless it is backing up.

On youtube search out cruelsister1 videos. There are at least 2 recent vids testing RansomFree... You'll find it enlightening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
