Normand Gauthier,

Hopefully you have an image of your hard drive and you can restore your computer.

Robert Smith, it is not an unqualified giveaway but a giveaway of the day. That is the well disclosed string that is attached ever since the projects inception over a decade ago.

David, Yes, same with me. Another malware app I use, Immunet, also identified 2 tmp files installed by UnHackMe as Trojans, is85U9M.tmp and is-JR1SQ.tmp and was unable to quarantine them.

Thom, what correct link would you like, there are trillions of correct links on the internet which one are you seeking?

TK, thank you for counting links on the internet! I asked for the link to download UnHackMe 10.70.

Thom, too late now... you should have been more specific in your original comment... you need to use the download now link on an active giveaway and follow the instructions presented. If you end up with an oops page not found 404 page then you need to resolve your internet connectivity problem as something is corrupting your browsing as the provided links in the download now procedure are in my expereince and the vast majority of users experience just fine.

ozi ripa, Yes on their website. Select it from the top menu. I believe it is $69.99.

waynoworld, (Actually, this is for "Don"): Thank you *very* much for the very thoughtful comments. This app is NOT for the faint of heart or amateurs. It is powerful, and you need to know how to use it. If you're at all unsure of your skills in this regard, I suggest NOT trying this app.

Vincent, further down the page there is a discount $6 discount coupon that goes through to a discounted price of $33.90 OR £33.90 in UK... or €37.90 in eurozone.that is using fastspring checkout service. The normal Buy Now button on the other hand at paddle.com checkout service presents as you say "Your total is $47.88 (inc. VAT)" which is not correct since USA buyers do not have a VAT and have no obligation to pay VAT within the EU or whereever Dmitry is located.

If we go to the page https://www.greatis.com/unhackme/buy.htm
there is a specific link stating "UnHackMe Single (no Warrior): $24.95 USD" Which is the giveaway edition we have here BUT if we click on the link we are taken to yet another ecommerce providers cart via https://greatis.com/unhackme-standalone https://store.payproglobal.com/checkout?products[1][id]=34498

this time the price presented for me is in UK GBP which is the correct geo-location for me and the price asked is £34.00 excl VAT, and £40.80 incl VAT. Switching to US$ shows $39.90 and they add VAT on top of that to take it to $47.88 again... nothing like the price quoted in the link text as shown above... If I select USA as billing location VAT is removed from the calculation which is correct... but still the resultant price is NOT anywhere close to the $24.95 quoted on this giveaway or on the link text quoted above. I cannot understand why Dmitry has 3 different ecommerce providers for the same websites products... and the prices quoted are not the prices presented and charged by any of the 3 different ecommerce providers... This is not the way to administer a business in my opinion.

Found a paygloabal URL that presents the $24.95 price quoted but no idea if it would result in a lifetime stand alone unhackme license... https://store.payproglobal.com/checkout?products[1][id]=34495

clicking on the volume discount link on that page shows a little confusion...



1-5: 18.59 GBP per each item (-10.00% per item)
6-11: 17.55 GBP per each item (-15.00% per item)
12-17: 16.93 GBP per each item (-18.00% per item)

Errrr 1-5 is not volume licensing... that should be 2-5 as 1 license is not a volume license it's a single license and on that payglobal URL the single license price is 21.00 GBP per item NOT 18.59 GBP...

Vincent, because the site is not organised and has multiple ecommerce providers and the developer has lost their way around the site and ecommerce providers!

have a look at https://greatis.onfastspring.com/unhackme-warrior-50off you may like that offer!

Sesquipod, Network Shield blocks malicious websites via Windows hosts files.

Ari, network shield using Windows hosts file is an age old method of putting known malicious website domain names in the systems hosts file and pointing them towards a safe or non-existant web server IP number, usually the same IP number as the localhost entry 127.0.0.1 It can mitigate lack of outgoing protection on older windows firewalls and default disabled outgoing protection on modern versions of windows. Like virus patterns the list of malicious website domain names needs to be updated as new malicious domains and subdomains are brought online by hacking existing servers and registering new domains that look like official websites for banks or big name services like google or amazon or facebook etc. Like all pattern matching protection systems it is always after the fact... someone had to find a domain names server to be malicious in some way and one has to be able to trust that no undue censorship is also going on like blocking the access to their competetors services or critical review sites...
SO Network Shield is by no means comprehensive or in anyway a stateful packet inspection firewall or intrusion detection and prevention solution... but (assuming it is administered honerably) it is better than the default state of windows. One thing it cannot do is stop requests to internet machines using IPv4 or IPv6 IP numbers directly and thus bypass all domain name lookups. It is also possible to download/subscribe to hosts files that perform similar function and others that block access to known advertising domains and or website usage tracking websites that are operated in a manner similar to open source software projects.

And yes I would agree that unhackme is more for computer geeks as you put it than those that are happy to surf the web and never look under the hood so to speak. I being a so called computer geek would not install this unless it was needed and to date on all the systems I have had sole usage of it has never been needed simply because us so called computer geeks tend to lock down windows to harden it as much as possible from the silly security exposures it has and harden my own internet activities so I do not inadvertantly open the door to a malicious intrusion attempt by my own foolish actions like running every prommised solution or free program or tempting video or responding to crazy security notifications like your java needs updating and here's the executable you can update it with... or your flash player is out of date and needs to be updated to view this website... press OK to update... madness!

TK, To your comment "this is more for computer geeks" -- I am definitely NOT a geek, but this sounds like a pretty good program to me. As a relative non-geeky type person who isn't so quick on the uptake, how would i fare installing this program? Do I say "yes" to everything as I progress with the installation? I'm pretty interested in the program....

Ann, one of the many reasons I would not install this on a machine that does not have problems (is not already hacked) as it flags so many perfectly legitimate programs as suspicious or potentially unwanted that I would waste so much time teaching this software to do its job properly by making it ignore those perfectly normal programs.... To be honest Ann my advice is if a computer is not broken don't try to fix it as we can't fix what is not broken but we can break it in the attempt!
And then either have to become a computer geek or enlist a trusted local computer geek to restore your once healthy machine back to normalcy again. Another piece of general advice is if you cannot choose a programs install options on your own or have an in home IT person choose it for you my advice is it is unwise to procede on the advice of some unknown person in a sites comment section as they won't be there to hold your hand once the program is installed and blocks you from some random program you may rely upon and they will not be able to help you restore your computer to a fully working state via said comments section, likely needing direct remote desktop access which is far too risky to ever engage in.
I apologise if this is not what you want but I cannot help someone make trouble for themselves just because a tool is being offered free on here and who doesn't like free gifts...

frank, you are probably trying deperately to be funny... but such malicious websites are out there because there are millions of people completely unaware that flash player defaults to updating itself and are using powerful computers that are more powerful that super computers of a few decades ago with no significant training in best practices.... on the off chance you are one of those uneducated computer users.... wow your computer still works enough to post on here? astounding! please disconnect it from the internet and stop allowing criminals to use your computer for their criminal activities like distributed denial of service attacks or distributed bulk mailing bot networks etc. and get some proper training.

TK, thanks a lot for details. It helps a lot.

Ann, apologes for the apparent lack of reply... I did reply extensively but an admin deleted my reply. Sorry!

Sig,
If the pop ups happen from within applications ( like free games ), just uninstall them. If the pop ups happen within your Internet browser software ( like Chrome ), then try switching to another browser such as : the Omega Mini browser, the DuckDuckGo browser or the Brave browser. You may also try to install and run the 'BitDefender Antivirus Free' application. These applications can be obtained for free from the 'Play Store'.

Sig, why would you exepct a windows anti-malware program to do anything to adware overload on an android device? Back up your contacts and emails and files and do a factory reset on your phone and be a little more astute about what applications you install on it.

DejaVu2, there seems to be a problem with certain android phones and those ads. they arent from a browser or app. Perhaps they started from an app but when the app is gone the ads remain.

HellsBells, So it discovered your programs were compromised, and you silenced the alarm?

AR, There was no notification the programs were compromised....just "suspicious, etc.". Since I knew what the programs were, I checked off as "false positive". You may want to try the program before commenting? "Compromised" was/is not one of the options.

HellsBells, Isn't that how viruses work? by contaminating your programs?

Paul, ahhhh "Will Robinson."

Me, Owell. My bad.

Me, ............. knew something didn't sound right about that

Paul,

The quote is actually, "Danger Will Robinson!" It comes from the 60s serial "Lost In Space" and was spoken by the family robot to the young son. I loved that show and watched it every week when I was a kid. I use the quote myself when appropriate. LOL.

Paul, yup classic scareware tactics.

GAOTD and Greatis - this is a real problem. I only hope the program downloads the last version, but ASKS permission to install!
mario from Brasil

Wolf Brosch, not having installed this program for a long time due to all the false positive scareware it produces wasting my time I cannot recall if it only checks for updates to the program or it also has the facility to update the list of bad domains placed into the hosts file and the definitions that define what are malicious and what are allegedly "suspicious" programs. We should not be entitled to free program updates/upgrades unless otherwise stated by the vendor... but we should be allowed indefinate definitions and bad domain listings updates that do not require a coresponding program update. If the program is doing forced checks for program updates only and we are not permitted those wit hthe giveaway license I would packet sniff the domain or IP number that the program looks to in order to check for updates and provided it does not break the definitions update facility (assuming it has such) I'd block at outbound firewall rules access to the update site and or add the update sites full domain name to the systems hosts file and block it in the same way as the programs network shield block its list of malicious sites.

TK, Thank you very much for your appreciated feedback. Your comments and inputs are always very welcome, useful and highly appreciated. I have been learning a lot from your profound knowledge so far and often skip other comments since yours are the ones that comes carefully selected with lot of background knowledge that are a must and pleasure to read. I really deeply appreciate the time you spend keeping us informed. Thanks again

TK, TK, Thank you very much for your appreciated feedback. Your comments and inputs are always very welcome, useful and highly appreciated.

Wolf Brosch, you are welcome, I do try to be informative when modertors allow. I did do a test install of this and it again was what i would call scareware in its reports... only legit "problems" it found were hidden driver "services" that were incompletely uninstalled where the driver files were uninstalled but the services entries for them were not deleted. There does not seem to be program version update checks but the update check is for an updated zip of the databases which should not invalidate any license. Because I use an alternate hosts file of known problem domains I am happy never to see I did not use the much smaller list this presents as a network shield and after I did the scan and as I expected, it did not find any genuinly malicious software so I uninstalled it and was offered a 50% descount URL on the full product not this unhackme only standalone edition at $19.99

dadams, Yes indeed; what is new in this version 10.70?

Herman Nehru, yes, but you have to know what your doing. a lot of finds will be legitimate.

Herman Nehru, https://ru.giveawayoftheday.com/unhackme-9-90/ - #4

Herman Nehru, Yes. In fact it's what it does, works with other AV program as an extra layer of protection. I have used it for years.
