BufferShield is security software, capable of detecting and preventing
attempts to execute code on the stack and the heap memory area, in
order to stop the exploitation of buffer overflows. It is a very
useful addition to Windows Update, minimizing the risk of unresolved
security exploits, caused by buffer overflows.

Upon detection of a buffer overflow it creates an entry within the
event log and optionally terminates the application in question,
preventing the execution of potentially malicious code.

Buffer overflows are commonly exploited by hackers or viruses with the
aim of introducing malicious code into attacked computer systems. For
example, the LovSan / MSBlaster virus used such a buffer overflow in
order to spread itself.

Opposed to the commercial version of BufferShield, protecting all
running applications and services, the freely available version is
limited to protect only the following list of applications:
-MS Internet Explorer 
-Opera 
-MS Outlook Express 
-MS Outlook

A single computer license of the commercial BufferShield version costs
$29.00 and can be ordered on-line from our company's secure website.
Multiple computer and enterprise licenses are also available.

You can download the free version and a 30-day trial of the commercial
version at: http://www.sys-manage.com/index10.htm

Kind regards,
Rene Ruehle
