Desktop Armor is a program that's harder to see in action, protecting your computer.
With a download manager (like GetRight) you can
download a file and see it work.
Desktop Armor is more like a virus scanner--where it's hard to really see
it work until the virus scanner pops up and says "Hey! I Found a Virus!"
I simulate what a virus, trojan, or other malicious program can do to your computer. I'm Desktop Armor's Scoundrel Simulator.
With a simple button, you can change (and then fix back!) settings that show some of the nasty things a scoundrel can do to
your computer. The things I'll demonstrate:
- Changing your browser's home page.
- Disabling access to change your Internet Options.
- Disabling the registry editing tools that come included in Windows.
- Adding new items to start when Windows starts.
These show quite well how Desktop Armor protects you (or if you don't have Desktop Armor, it shows how simple it
is for these things to be changed without your knowledge).

This 300kb file is the program itself, it doesn't need any installation.
Just download and run. Silly, but McAfee says we could be a site that
distributes software that makes questionable changes--because this demonstrates
how easy it is to make changes! Copy that address
to your web browser to download; hopefully this stops them flagging us as bad!
