    Clarification Needed for Items in 4.2 Beta Release Notes

    After reading the release notes for the 4.2 Beta (http://forums.eeye.com/forums/t/850.aspx), I have the following questions:

    1. " - Vulnerability Assessment reports will not display configuration audits anymore."

    Is this suppose to be a noticeable change?  I don't notice anything different in Retina after I do a scan.  This does not mean you have gotten rid of any of the three different types of audits Retina runs on a system (High, Medium, Low) does it?

    2. "- Blink will report if an incompatibility with other security products is impeding normal operation."

    Will this show up as toaster style popup alert in the lower right or will it simply be a log entry in Blink?

    3. " - Improved Malware disinfection. For each detected malware, Blink will scan the registry for references to the file and delete them."

    I am assuming this will be automatic and it will occur after an object is marked as being malicious and is Quarintined?

    4. "- IPS module includes a new Patent Pending ActiveX protection engine designed for Internet Explorer"

    Outstanding!  WOW, there is a longggg list of them in the IPS rules section.  *Chuckles*

    1. For Blink Professional there will be no changes. For Blink Personal many audits that should pose no risk to a home user are now removed. The report will be cleaner and will focus on real security risks rather than configuration issues.

    2. There will be  a report in Blink's Event Logs

    3. Yes, it is fully automatic at disinfection time.
