Overview

SecureBlackbox ActiveX/DLL edition is a software program developed by EldoS. The most common release is 4.4, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version.

A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The setup package generally installs about 14 files and is usually about 11.61 MB (12,174,906 bytes).
