This program claims to protect your PC at a deeper level than the
usual anti-virus and anti-spyware applications by stopping program
from attacking you in a variety of ways. It says it protects you in
a variety of ways, including stopping running programs from being
modified, cutting off access to RAM, stopping the logging of
services, and in similar ways. In addition, it stops any new
application from installing, unless you first give the go-ahead. In
that way, malware can't be installed on your PC without your
knowledge.
ProcessGuard starts off in a kind of learning mode, to see how you
use your PC. Even during that time, it says it provides protection,
and then increases protection after it learns about your PC use.
One thing to keep in mind about ProcessGuard: If you use Windows
Vista, you're out of luck, because this program is incompatible
with it.
