functions (for example, as in the case of installation of key
loggers) * Activity control policies can now be configured in a
more flexible manner:

* The user can select the activity to be controlled.

user. The user can also create new rules. In the earlier
versions of Safe’n'Sec, the user could not change or view the
rules.

specify the actions to be taken by the application upon
detection of potentially malicious activity on your computer.
Specific actions can be defined for each control policy.

* For applications for which an activity control rule is
specified, users can configure Safe’n'Sec to check application
integrity as well. * Safe’n'Sec has a list of trusted
applications whose activity has been analyzed by StarForce
experts. This feature enhances the speed of analyzing
application activities on a user PC. * The manager of active
processes is improved. Now Safe’n'Sec can scan processes for the
presence of malicious code, create custom activity rules, remove
processes during system reboot, and view the network activities
of processes. * The dialog box warning the user about a
malicious activity contains technical details on the detected
application, its activity, and provides recommended user
actions. Users can manually terminate a process after it has
been blocked, using additional settings for decision making. *
Through the Management Console, users can enable/disable
activity control. In previous versions, this operation was
accessible only from the application settings window. * The
protection of Safe’n'Sec’s own processes from unloading and
damage by malicious software has been improved. * Report

and view reports in a special dialog box. * The program

email recovery. Data recovery softwares function differently for
different types of files, which are:

* Outlook PST Files * Outlook Express DBX Files * Web Mail

Outlook PST Files

PST Files are very complex. So, once data is lost from these
files, it is important to recover the data as well as repair
them. To recover data the files themselves, these softwares are
very helpful. Good software is equipped to repair and restore
data from damaged or corrupted Microsoft Outlook file.

Microsoft Outlook stores email messages, contacts, notes and
folders on the local drive as a .pst file. The Outlook recovery
software scans the damaged .pst file and extracts and saves
information in a new usable .pst file, enabling PST Recovery.

The key features of good PST files recovery software are:

Hotmail, one has to use the Internet Browser to log onto a
remote computer which stores the emails. When mails from it are
deleted, they cannot be recovered. Hence, data recovery software

procedure, and only messages that have been opened already can
be retrieved using a good software.

cure. So, it is advised that a lot of care be taken. After all,
