Version history for xp-AntiSpy
<<Back to software description
Changes for v3.98 Beta - v3.98
- What changed:
- Reworked setting Hide shortcut arrow because it was not always working on 64bit systems.
- Removed setting Deny access to 16-Bit-Applications from Suggested profile
- Fixed several errors occurring on 64bit systems
- Added Feature: The menu Profiles now contains the entry Check profile at logon. If there?s a check mark in front of, the xp-AntiSpy will check the current selected profile everytime you logon to your system. If a setting does not conform to that profile you will be presented a dialog window, asking to reapply the profile.
- Added feature: Due to the amount of settings in the xp-AntiSpy it get?s complicated if you look for a special one. So I added a search field which can be enabled by selecting the menu Special>Show search field. Once you enter a search term it will be searched in all setting names and the according info text for that setting
Changes for v3.97-12 beta - v3.98 Beta
- In the menu 'Profiles' I added a feature to check the currently selected profile on every login. If a setting does not comply with the profile a dialog will come up a inform about the settings not in compliance, offering to correct these settings.
- By now there are more than hundred settings presented by the xp-AntiSpy, thus it's very complicated to find a special setting if you're looking for one. So i added the possibility to filter the settings by a search term that only the settings which contain the search term will be displayed. You can display/hide this search bar just press 'Ctrl+F' or do it via the menu 'Special->Show search field'
