New Release: Immunet 6.0.0/6.0.2/6.0.4/6.0.6)

[EugeneC]

Hello all,

 

We are happy to announce a new release of Immunet: version 6.0.0!

 

This latest version of Immunet provides the same great protection againts malware and viruses as before, but also includes a new protection engine: Advanced Threat Prevention! This engine now allows Immunet to provide in-memory protection against threats - stopping them before they have a chance to exploit your system.

 

Unfortunately, a side effect of adding this engine is that Immunet can no longer support the following operating systems:

Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008 (Immunet will still support Windows Server 2008 R2)

 

As always, you can get the new installer at https://www.immunet.com

 

If you are running an older version of Immunet, you should be able to upgrade via the 'Update Now' button in the UI. If you don't see the update in your UI, you can always download the latest installer from https://www.immunet.comand execute it to get the upgrade.

 

If you do encounter problems with the new version of Immunet Protect, please let us know either here on the forums at http://support.immunet.com, or via email at support@immunet.com.

 

Thank you for your continued support!

Hi all,

 

Unfortunately, we released Immunet 6.0.0 yesterday with an error in it's configuration. As many of you have noticed, the result of this issue is the changes to settings are not being saved. We have addressed this issue in the installers that are available for download from https://www.immunet.com  as well as the installer that is available through the UI for update from older versions.

 

To address this issue if you have installed or upgraded to Immunet 6.0.0 prior to the time of this post, you will have to uninstall this version and reinstall using the new installer downloaded from the Immunet website.

 

Sorry for the inconvenience,

The Immunet Protect Team

Another day, another Immunet release! We are releasing a new version of Immunet: version 6.0.2, which patches an issue with the new Advanced Threat Prevention engine. 

 

As with other releases, this new version is available for download from https://www.immunet.com, as well as via the Immunet UI if you currently Immunet 6.0.0 or earlier installed.

 

Sorry for the inconvenience,

The Immunet Protect team

We've identified an incompatibility with the new Advanced Threat Prevention engine and a recent Windows 10 update. If your computer is running Windows 10 Creator's edition and has applied Windows Update KB4038788, you may be encountering stability issues with processes that are protected by this engine. Updating to Immunet 6.0.4 should alleviate these issues.

 

You can tell if you have this patch applied by running 'winver' from the Start menu. If you see Build 1703 (15063.608), then you may be affected by the issue mentioned above. You can also check to see if KB4038788 is listed under the 'Hotfix(s)' section when running 'systeminfo' from the Start menu.
