Protecting the windows registry

The Windows Registry is of uttermost importance to the Windows operating system. Malicious software makes use of the capacities of the Windows Registry regularly by changing system settings and adding malicious scripts to the system startup process. Many security software programs do not protect the Windows Registry from those dangers which is why running an program for additional protection might make sense.
Registry Prot is a tiny program that protects important Registry keys from being manipulated without the user’s knowledge. It barely uses 200 Kilobytes of computer memory while running and will only become active when programs try to make changes or new additions to the Windows Registry. There is no list of all the Registry locations that are monitored by Registry Protection. Among the known locations are the various possibilities to add system startup items and the default applications for known file types.

Registry Prot might not be something for inexperienced users as the informational dialogs are sometimes hard to understand without the proper knowledge. A web search can aid in the decision making process.

RegDefend is a kernel based registry protection system, designed to use as few resources as possible. Instead of polling the registry looking for changes, RegDefend intercepts the changes before they occur. RegDefend comes installed to protect registry autostarts and some special registry keys, custom rules can also be added.
The registry is a place where the operating system and applications you run store their settings and data. The registry should be protected because malicious software like viruses, trojans and worms use the registry to their advantage. The registry is the place where these programs allow themselves to be started everytime you turn your computer on. If they couldn't use the registry, the next time you rebooted they would no longer be active on your system.
RegDefend sits between the registry and applications which want to use it. If an application breaks any RegDefend rule that the user has setup then it will be blocked from doing what it wants.
Due to the way RegDefend works, it is only active when applications want to use the registry. This means there is virtually no performance loss having it protecting your system, unlike other registry protection systems which continually keep polling (reading) the registry to detect any changes. These other systems still allow malicious software to infect the registry, whereas RegDefend cannot be beaten
