Assuming that Spybot's Tea Timer in v1.4 still has the allow/deny option
bug, is there a better free alternative?

Is WinPatrol a good alternative?

How about the Mike Lin programs:

I found Tea-Timer to be quite buggy, so I turned it off. I've been
using the free version of WinPatrol and am very happy with it.

There is a fix for the option window in Teatimer. I have no buggy problems
with it. I also use Diamonds RegProt, as noted by another person in this
thread. I also use Winpatrol. I use all three programs running in the
background.

I haven't used Tea-Timer in a while, but one thing that annoyed me is
that the program would repeatedly tell me the same messages over and over
again. For example, if I changed the IE home page, Tea-Timer would warn me
about this. I would click OK to allow the change. The next time I
restarted my PC, Tea-Timer would again warn me about the new IE homepage,
even though I had already approved this change.

I see that Diamondcs.com has some good looking utilities up there.

One thing though. SiteAdvisor shows quite a few adjustments made to the
registry and a few system32 files added with this program (though they give
it a 0 nuisance score):

See my next thread. Spybot S&D issued a beta update that fixes the
problem.

I'm old school I guess, I didn't install it.

It's a stand alone program, I put all the file in a direct roy, ran
regprot.exe, it checked and asked about the current settings, then
made a CFG file it works from - put a short-cut to regprot.exe in a
startup directory so it checks settings on startup.

No registry entries, and only 4 files.

What I don't like about it is the CFG file is encrypted, so I can't
edit it myself.

Sorry. I posted the Siteadvisor link to their Process Guard program.

The Regprotect comments look pretty good:

No registry changes.
