If we talk about clipboard (as CTRL+V also) - it's also does not work with my experience about F-Secure ULAV.
About other.. it's probably work (?!).
And search results should be with "filter-view" of any characters (such as.. each combination of characters; or each character goes be as filter for all notification, but need to choose "related" category or "all" for get all results; and of course.. should be current character under notifications).

Just an update on the Bitdefender Safepay issue - I uninstalled and reinstalled Visual c++ 2010, and that cured the error. However, BD Safepay is barely functional as a free app without the suite, and it told me that my subscription to the FREE version has expired (seriously??), so as with every other BD product I've tried, it got uninstalled pretty quickly.

Hello,
There already was same words about same situation.
And my experience with same behavior.
If any steps will be helpful for you create there words about it.
How I can to understand - it's not really related with restart of system, but just with any overload/too much long load or TOO MUCH SPEEDY load... when mechanism by F-Secure ULAV and Windows Security Center can not to trigger normal information around.
Maybe it also can be related with situation, when F-Secure ULAV goes to download/installing updates at launch system (with re-check updates during launch).

Sorry for question.
But why you returned to the FS Protection? Just because Windows Security Center created alert about disabled F-Secure ULAV?
Probably.. there without any critical points. And F-Secure ULAV works as should be.
Just there probably compatibility things around. And for example, you available to run Windows Defender as main solution (which will be always recognized as enabled), but F-Secure ULAV as additional.
For situation... when you want to use just F-Secure ULAV - there created mechanism for get it. But it's can be various points, when mechanism goes be with strange results (when Windows not available to get proper information or re-fresh it after first getting). Also maybe it's can be related with HDD (usage) or SSD - as speedy reaction. Or.. also with network connection background (such as network drivers). Anyway.... it's most probably can be without not nice points about protection. But it's looks like not as design.
My situation with current experience - WIndows 8 and HDD;
During weekends (when updates not really comes) each launch of system goes normally (probably, but not sure totally).
With password-protection (as password/pin for account) more often goes be loading normally. Such as "delay" between launch system and full launch system. And with "account", where not needed to add password... can be current behavior each launch (such as - too speedy start?!).
With updates downloading/installing at launch -> also often will be same behavior.
Also.. of course there a lot of steps around - > such as reinstallation/uninstallation (multi-times as trying to check) and some of cleaning (of course) not really helpful with my experience.

Yes... but also want to add - my words not about that.... it's not possible to back for FS Protection (because it's around perfect solution too). Just return to FS Protection can be much powerful after some days/weeks of experience with F-Secure ULAV (such as more visible different things between two solutions; can be more visible good points with F-Secure ULAV and specific good points with FS Protection).
And with my experience.... I also feel some kind of "not nice points".. that there often need to re-load F-Secure ULAV under UI (or turn on it manually..... by Windows Security Center) just for "check" (when possible it's can be work and without current action). Because... much better... to see... how Windows Security Center without questions.
And with my experience (my situation)... first days of using F-Secure ULAV was practically always with manual re-load F-Secure ULAV after launch (for getting normal Security Center information). Because each launch, each start goes with current behavior (but maybe there wrong statistics.. I not launch thousands restarts/starts for system).
After some days it goes already time to time (but I also created some of additional steps, which can be related... but I still not sure... where is reason for current behavior). But if F-Secure ULAV interesting for you... I think that... just one current point... not a real reason for stop using and drop experience about current solution.
Additional:
Also you able to get standalone Support Tool for creating fsdiag. And maybe create a report about it for F-Secure ULAV team. Such as... maybe it's not known trouble (?!) as visible reason.
And with more "reports" about it by various users... reason can be more visible. -
I carefuly read the last posts about ULAV flaws (to make it short) against F-S, I consequently wish to point out that my experience is 100 % positive in any respect: perfect integration in W 8.1 x64 security center, reactivity to EICAR tests, zero system resources drag. I know that a given software won't react or (cooperate) integrate the same way in a supposedly identical OS, it partially depends on the registry database health, various updates, anciliary software running in the background, the browser you use, its version etc.

Do you have "strange behavior" between Windows Security Center and F-Secure ULAV today? I ask just because.. my experience (today) with some of launches goes be OK. And today F-Secure ULAV without updates yet (as potential reason for my recent meet current behavior - when Hydra updates comes and installed - F-Secure ULAV goes be detected as disabled by Windows Security Center).

About blocking page - same situation was with my experience. But not about all URLs and it's related maybe with some of strange points, which I not sure... that I can to understand (except something about rights for changes or cache-stuck). With some of tries (and after some of re-installations before latest one) it works time to time as should be. Such as URLs goes be under white list and current information getting by F-Secure ULAV for allow websites. But after that.. there again comes stuck about "common" URLs (and I just "stop" think about it).
Such as.. if there false-positive better to use F-Secure SAS for getting normal rating about website/webpage ( https://analysis.f-secure.com/ ).If there not really false-positive.. not sure.. that can be a lot of reasons for allow it.
About FS Protection and F-Secure ULAV... probably there should be one rating about websites.
So it's mean... there can not be big changes about "safe pages marked as harmful" (and with FS Protection should be same situation). But with F-Secure ULAV it's can be more visible - such as.... it's prompted about each block-situation (FS Protection can to do block-action under background... if it's just part/elements of page).

Hi all! I've been MIA for a bit due to the holiday season, but wanted to get back on here and thank you all for your continued feedback!
As for the general stability of this product and the UI, we're certainly aware of issues. We're reporting and fixing them internally every day. This product is still in relatively early beta, and it doesn't have the polish of our older products. Any comments you can provide are helpful! Also, please do file reports if you find specific situations in which a problem can be reproduced.
As far as the URLs being mis-rated, please file reports about those. Both FSP and ULAV use the same reputation backends, and so should block and allow the same URLs. If the behaviour is different between the two, we'd like to know so that we can look into why this is.
That being said, you should be able to allow a blocked URL via the UI if you know it is safe and want to visit it without turning the product off.
