| All comments about mantispm.exe: |
Bob Telford | It's part of zone alarm |
Stephen | It is part or Zonealarms ( Zonelabs ) |
| a filer related to zonealarm i think you get this if you enable the 'protect the zonealarm client' feature but i'm not sure |
Richard Atkins | After Installing Zone Alarm Security Suite It became listed as a running process that can not be ended in the task manager |
Steve Nihan | Part of Zone Alarm Pro, and integrates with microsoft outlook, or other email client to prevent the spread of virii through email. It also acts as a junk mail (spam) filter. It also allows you to report junk mail, and block all mail from specific domains, or users, and includes a smart filter which catches other junk mail before it's delivered. Great Customizeable feature See also: Link |
Viktoria | Part of Zone Alarm Pro |
Paul | Part Zone Alarm's MailFrontier Spam Protection Program |
Rob | Was attemptimg to send my bank PIN from ZoneAlarlm Vault to MailFrontier, why would a spam filter be trying to do this? I don't have the spam filter turned on in ZA as I don't use Outlook?. Looked very suspicious to me. |
Eric | Indeed, it's part of ZoneAlarm-Pro and ZoneAlarm Security Suite. |
A clever guy | Zonelabs Security Suite - Mailfrontier Span Blocker See also: Link |
Arun Soni | This is part of ZoneAlarm Spam filter. Works well |
David Phouthavong | Its a file Running on Mail Frontier |
daevious | email spam blocker |
Jim | Zone Alarm |
rick | its spam filter for zone alarm perfectly safe can be switched off from within zone alarm |
Bond, James | Definately got it after installing Zone Alarm Security Suite |
TK | Zone Alram warned it was tracking keystrokes and mouse movements. Now why would a SPAM filter need to do that? |
Ashok | this process cannot be ended in the task manager. If you want to not run this process, then you have turn the Email protection off in your Zone alarm settings. |
scotte | I disabled it and zone alarm still works fine so I would not entertain it without it paying me a reasonable fee |
Joshua D'Alton | Zone alarm spam filter, disabled via Junk Email Filter in Email protection tab |
Not Telling | Part of ZoneAlarm. If you turn off the mail protection features, it goes away. |
mimmo | Zone alarm |
Dondebob | Zone Alarm. All Good. |
HEG | ZoneAlarm flagged it--how could it be part of ZA? |
Helga | why doesnt zone alarm recognize the file and give you advice on it? |
BSFMissleLock | Okay, Definitely part of ZoneAlarm Security Suite, and ZoneAlarm-Pro. The active process is a file "mantispm.exe" (presumably = mail anti-spam) and associated with a sequence of components involved in creating the connection or listening port for that executable (eg. imslsp.dll, WS2_32.dll, WININET.dll). To see the components, try a command prompt, and type in: netstat -b -v |
Me | Zone alarm pro.. seem to use other companies products as their own |
binEsh | nothing to worry, anti mail spamer . |
wayne | its to do with zone labs and slows my comp down |
POUser | As stated above it is part of ZA, however ZA attempts to block the program. One would think a program would be able to know whether or not it's internal workings were safe or not. Idiotic software. |
RogerN | After installing ZA Internet Security suite from CD then updating to latest version 6.5 ZA produced a pop-up security alert saying mantispm.exe was unknown and that it could log key strokes etc. I found out it was actually a component of ZA6.5 so I allowed it (but why didn't ZA recognise it and auto configue?). Next ZA pop-up warned that mantispm.exe was trying to access the internet. Hopefully, it needs access to access its mail screening function, cos I allowed it with no problems. |
| it uses the fetch and execute cycle of your cpu to make use of the ALU |
miguel antoino | mantispm.exe ZSone alarm red flag it ,, so look for it in your search option and remove ,, why should any thing want to monitor my activities , and sites i visit |
laasdd | Zonealarm anti-spam and email virus protection, you have to configure it thru ZA to disable- but its all good. |
Silver Whiskers | Zone Alarm flagged it! If it is supposed to be part of ZA then why would it set an alarm off on it's own program. Doesn't make a nickles worth of sense to me. It continually tries to access the internet too. |
Michael Pope | Zone Alarm Spam Filter File used with Zone Alarm but not part of it as written by Sonicwall I think as when I searched the web for MailFrontier came up with this site that does Internet Security.My conclusion being that Zone Alarm contracted out some work and Sonicwall supplied them with this program and may be collecting data for there use also. See also: Link |
Jedidiah Rheubarb | Not to be confused with Mantispam.exe which is a worm. This is a Zonelabs product |
Zuber | This file is not spam or virus i did search file on my pc this file is something for Zonealarm C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\ZoneAlarm\MailFrontier See also: Link |
RiOh | ZA. Proceed as "Not Telling" suggested - itīs gone! |
Havestrat | ZoneAlarm flagged it as Dangerous - monitoring key strokes. |
henry rollins | part of zone alarm |
Alex | part of zone alarm suite See also: Link |
Stefan | This is a spam blocker for ZA |
Hells-Fury | Just Updated Zone Alarm, and it said mantispm.exe has changed so i think its normal |
GotZASuite | It is part of ZoneAlarm- but the fact that Smart Defense Advisor flags it as Suspicious Behavior does little for anyone's confidence in ZA. You may shut it off in ZA, but the Alert IS a bug in ZA and they should fix it or remove it. It's not dangerous but it's also not necessary. If it's just another irritating craplet for you, turn it off in ZA |
Siege | i am shutting it down. if ZA isnt programmed to recognise its own installed components then somethings up! |
Joe | Part Of Zone Alarms security package. Good, but ZA asks the user wether or not to block this process! Stupid Really... |
| zone alarm |
Steffen | mantispm.exe belongs to the ZoneAlarm-Software (PFW). It works as an plugin on MS Outlook and filters incoming Spam- and Junkmail and puts it in a separate directory. |
| part of zonelabs security |
| Zone Alarm uses |
Mutant XMCL | Component of ZoneAlarm |
xp_thang | You could turn it off in zonealarm program control setting....1st disable in taskman...then remove from program setting...add it to then kill (setting) for disable to startup again. |
Richard | It is 100% ZoneLabs (Installed and then uninstalled to make sure i was correct) |
Ellen | Slows down my Outlook - puts mail in a folder that has a filter on it for flagged items only and doesn't flag any of the items. Keeps popping up the toolbar in the middle of the screen. Came with update to ZoneAlarm without warning and can't turn it off. |
nicohooker | below is answer of zone alarm technical support when asked what is it, why does it need internet access and why does it need to track activity. Thank you for contacting Zone Labs Technical Service. |
nicohooker | ZoneAlarm Tech. support dixit: Mantispm.exe is our junkmail filter. Some times it gets updated and changes how it works and it will require access to get further updates. It does the monitor to verify active program or if it should go idle. If you want to disable the junkmail filter open up ZoneAlarm and click on email protection. Put a dot in off for junkmail filter. |
| This file is part of MailFrontier. If it loads at startup it can cause computer to start up really slow! Disable it at desktop so your start can run faster. |
Anonymous | Zone alarm pro - regular doesn't use this See also: Link |
Trev | It's not dangerous, unless it has another process attached to it. It's normally a process from Zone Alarm (mantispm=mail anti spam, hello?) It doesn't send any PIN numbers, personal info or anything. |
