Winpatrol 15.0.2008.0
Publisher's Description:
Winpatrol monitors your computer and does not allow applications to simply add themselves to the startup menu or associate files to themselves. Everything is caught by winpatrol. It then asks if you agree to what modifications are being done or not.

I always run as admin, don't use uac, do use autoruns, never have problems but can't be bothered with know it all geeks either. Only Pro version of Winpatrol monitors startup in realtime, get your facts right, otherwise a handy program for little tasks like delaying startup programs etc.

Wonderful program.
@cowgaR: People can and will do what they want. Your opinion is valued but your thoughts went a bit too far.

useless...
for first, stop being paranoid
for second, use your computer as a limited/restricted/standard (or whatever windows calls it) user, like it was intended since NT 3.5 user guidelines (looong before any linux, I used windows in such a manner long before they were written;-)
it is not my fault you are being stupid, then again, if you're not, and you're installing something as an administrator (for a while) you can use gorgeous TOTAL UNINSTALL (not advertising, you can try free trial yourself) to see where ALL things go...and you see it 10 times better than with this appz
then again, if you want to see your startup mess, use free AUTORUNS from sysinternals...best autorun util in this part of the galaxy
not to mention you have your firewall running and logs are enabled so you see what's going on...you don't have?
well then you really need some antivirus, antispyware, antimalware, even this useless crap to SEE WHAT'S GOING ON!?!
wise ppl don't need that, they KNOW what they're doing and when, not to mention under std account the programs can do s*** to LOCAL MACHINE registry, root, windows folder and so on and on, and UAC is running on Vista so what?!?...
hey, and I like versioning, version 15!, almost like my beloved (s***ty) ultraedit *grin*
just another useless appz that will steal your memory and slows down your comp, just a little tough...

The disaster that is why hello there's "review" smells like user error amongst other far (more foul, and less family-friendly) things to me....

My goodness what a waste of time this thing is. I installed version 15, only to find it looks exactly the same as version 9 or whatever from a few years ago! I had it set to monitor startup items in "real time", then deleted and added items... Only to find... NOTHING happening! No alerts, nothing. Do I have a mistaken definition of "real time"? Maybe if I took a nap it would have alerted me, but honestly, who needs this crap?
Gee, I hope this is "user error"! I mean, when YOU add new shortcuts to the Startup folder, you get an alert from WinPatrol IMMEDIATELY, right? RIGHT? Sure you do...
