A screencap of RETURNIL's setting dialog box (click to see a bigger version)We are all familiar with DeepFreeze. It's the software we use when we want to ensure that *absolutely*nothing* can happen to our painstakingly installed and customized Windows.
Unfortunately, DeepFreeze is payware.
I happened upon a posting in Wilders Security Forums, informing me of something called RETURNIL, made by the eponymous Returnil Virtual Systems. Upon checking up on RETURNIL, I found out that not only it is similar to DeepFreeze, the Personal Edition version also FREEWARE.
Wow, I immediately downloaded and installed RETURNIL on my system. I also did a preliminary (and very rudimentary) test, in which I activated RETURNIL's protection, created a new text file on c:\, and rebooted.
Sure enough, after reboot, the new text file... is no more.
Very Interesting. I will keep using this. I guess this *is* a keeper after all.
Stay tuned for more testing results and/or praises and/or rants about RETURNIL.
Over and Out.
