HI

i just add some folder to "Defense Excludes" and what i see is when i download files from firefox (set as trusted and run like that) all files become "untrusted" from some reason , i try moving files insides my "Defense Excludes" folder , and files remain trusted as it was in the first place

any idea if its normal?


cheers

I just don't understand something. You added some folders into the "File and registry protection excludes" and now, saving into the folder makes the files untrusted? Do you save with untrusted process or trusted?

yes , as i wrote , i uses firefox as trusted (trsuted process).

It means, malware can modify files you download from within trusted zone. Not really good choice from the security point of view.

i think you didnt understand my question so i ask it again like that

1. firefox.exe run as "TRUSTED" (i disable it from run untrusted)
2. i add folder c:\my stuff to "File and registry protection excludes"
3.i download some files from the net to c:\my stuff (using TRUSTED firefox.exe)
4. all files in c:\my stuff became "UNTRUSTED" (even firefox.exe is disabled and run TRUSTED)

according to to DW manual

The Defense Excludes List contains files that are allowed to be Modified by Untrusted applications or processes.

.........i don't understand what is going on , since all files downloaed to c:\my stuff been d/l by TRUSTED firefox.exe
why DW make them untrusted?

can u check this and explain?

10x alot

First, you have to check if the folder itself is trusted. Or the drive itself.

10x ilya , i solved the riddle eventually

Hi demoneye



can you please share your solution with all others in here? I guess there might be other users dealing with the same or similar problems.

Thanks in advance for your help

the way i overpower it was simple my mistake , i mean i forgot i add c:\sanbox in "untrusted " list (add it manually) and what ever downloaded by firefox (i set him trusted) became "untrusted" and it OK :)

cheers
