SubRosaSoft Introduces System Protection App FileDefense

by , 11:15 AM EST, November 29th, 2007

SobRosaSoft.com announced the immediate availability of its new file protection and system watchdog application FileDefense 1.0 on Thursday. The system utility alerts you when unauthorized applications, malicious scripts, and network services try to access the files and data on your Mac.


FileDefense 1.0

FileDefense includes a pre-configured list of trusted applications, a drag-and-drop interface for customizing the trusted application list, and more. Users can choose to allow or deny activity from apps that aren't on the trusted list, or kill unwanted processes that are running on their computer.

FileDefense 1.0 supports Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5, and is available at the SubRosaSoft.com Web site. It is priced at US$59.95 as a download, or $69.95 on CD.

OK - let's take your moans one at a time:

This software does not work Well, it worked OK for me. What doesn't work?

All it will do is cause problems to [sic] your computer What problems? it didn't cause any to mine.

Also they make it almost impossible to delete from my computer - how so? Under the File menu item is "Uninstall". I clicked on it - it uninstalled. Thinking about what it's doing, it wouldn't hurt to disable it first. There's a nice big friendly button for doing that too.

Be more specific, or get branded as a trouble-maker. Whoever you are.
