Default Re: What is your security setup these days?

I changed my security setup again, but finally I'm quite happy I think with my security setup as it is now (also in signature).
Also I'm starting to use a LUA account or Standard User as it is called in Windows 7.

I added PeerBlock to filter internet traffic. I use P2P, Spyware and Advertising lists.

I hope, that this time I won't have problems with it.

I don't think you would need AG with that setup.

I wonder why you would need Comodo Firewall/D+ when you've got KIS. Also I think MVPS HOSTS is not needed with your already solid setup.

How do you like it Tom? Also do you use a paid subscription for OpenDNS and do you use DNSCrypt for it?

So far, it's good. No I don't use paid subscription and no DNSCrypt for me for now.

Cool Re: What is your security setup these days?

Been the same for 3-plus years now. No need to keep changing all the time.

Default New Security Setup

I'm in the process of reformating my pc and was thinking of changing my current setup. I have been using Panda Cloud for close to a year but am a little weary of the program not having an option to disable automatic upgrades. Version 2.0 has been worse than 1.5.2 IMO.

I'm thinking of going with LUA + SRP + Sandboxie Free + Avast Free (File System Shield only) + Ghostwall + MBAM Free + HitmanPro Free

I liked GeSWall on my Mom's 32-bit PC, but it seems they are not developing it anymore, and have abandoned the 64-bit version

However, I had removed it because it wouldn't work with Chrome or IE9.

When you say "still" have you been using it the last few days? Because your signature and avatar have been blank the last few days.

Removed my anti-virus (Returnil).
System start-up, responsiveness, cpu usage, etc. improved.

Will now let Sandboxie, Online Armor, EMET, and daily scans of HitmanPro to protect my computer.
