After Blink forced a new update (today) to version 4.4.3 after reboot, there were NO RULES (Firewall, Intrusion Prevention & System Protection) for the Administrative User. BTW, I have Windows XP SP3.
Strangely, the Limited User had rules.
Obviously, a firewall w/o rules in absolutely worthless. Less than useless.
This happened to me previously months ago, so I tried to follow the advice given at that time.
Reseting the configuration did NOT help, still NO RULES.
Deleting the key HKCU/Software/Eeyes Digital Security/Blink did NOT help, still NO RULES.
I'm going to try uninstalling Blink, eliminating as many registry entries for Blink as I can find and finally downloading and reinstalling Blink.
It's very frustrating to see this happen again, especially after I reported a similar incident earlier.
Maybe Eeyes should check for this BEFORE letting Blink Personal out of Beta.
Thanks in advance.
