Kinda what i just can't seem to shake whenever running the popular brands of AV's and why theres always a marked upsurge of computer energy whenever i pull them out of my lineup. No matter how current a CPU rating & memory, i always observe a definite "Lag" of the snappiness expected. It's inherent in Windows platforms whenever i install and run resident AV's, with the possible exception of Avira which taxes the system the least and doesn't hiccup among the other security apps meant to offset potential weak zones.

except for that I use wsa which is the most compatible and fastest and lightest security.....also security line-up is stacked up in a 1gb ram netbook....you can sure feel the heat of bacon frying from here....

Sandboxie...
and then some other stuff.
Perfect for me.

Yup, when you have Sandboxie, everything else is less important...

[buckslayr]

Bought a couple of licenses for Drive Vaccine. Works great. Re-boot and everything is re-stored. OA keeps me protected during a session.

Have used Dr Web since 2004 and never had a virus or anything nasty.

Panda Cloud Antivirus, Filseclab Personal Firewall (I may replace this piece of my security setup with Private Firewall) and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro (but on-demand only).

It doesn't seem to have any specific area that causes it. I have exclusions in comodo and it has full access to the internet.

weird i had the same issue with firefox when installed AVG Pro, im starting to feel this is Firefox's fault not the av's.
had to ditch AVG cause of that, shame.

Yeah I'm not too sure who's fault it is. I've run WSA essentials with private firewall and comodo firewall. Neither had any issue's. I do think that either shadowdefender or sandboxie or both combined are creating some issue for WSA. Either way I'm not giving up SD or sandboxie so its a mute point. I'll keep trying WSA ever few builds to see if it gets fixed.

did you set internet security and network to high?.....also did you check process monitor along with email anomaly in settings?...

[adam993]

Yes. I've enabled system anomaly detection, process detection and changed alerts' behavior to manual control.

[jmonge]

OA and webroot is cool

PC:

Notebook:

CIS + KeyScrabler Pro
Chrome + ABP

What you think aobut it guys?

What happened to your Sandboxie?

[lubieplacki]

Forgot to list it, I use it on my PC

[moontan]

switched from NoScript to ScriptNo in Chrome.
because of Chrome's sandbox.

i will certainly try Firefox and NoScript again when Firefox has a sandbox, hopefully soon this year.

[jmonge]

i am going for my third week with Emsisoft Firewall 5.5 and it's here to stay strong and secure

[Dark Shadow]

A three week Anniversary party yea.

[moontan]

removed ScriptNo and added Ghostery instead.

i found ScriptNo slowed down the loading of pages too much.
