Default RegRun Gold NIVA 4.1 & My Security Setup

I am seriously considering the purchase of RegRun Gold NIVA 4.1. I am wondering if RRG will compliment and enhance my current security setup which includes the following:

UnHackMe
Look'n'Stop
Counterspy
TrojanHunter
Task Catcher
WinPatrol
NOD32
WormGuard
SpywareBlaster
Harden-It
Samurai
Spybot Search & Destroy
Ad-Aware SE

I would greatly appreciate any comments or advice to this matter.


Peace & Love,

since u already have wormguard and winpatrol, i think regdefend would a better choice as it provides less overlap than regrun ss.

That may be changing soon, RR also does a lot more than RegDefend. RR's Start Control, Anti-Spyware, application database, infection detector (virus and trojan), file protection, etc., are all indespensible IMO, and are in active development. Sometimes I forget that RR is security software because it's very useful on a day-to-day basis if you like to play with software.

If you get RR, though, there really wouldn't be much point in keeping WinPatrol, though, it does the same things and a lot more.

Would Regrun Gold be a suitable replacement for active guard security tools like Spysweeper or Ewido? I have ProcessGuard, DrWEB and a Linksys router and can always add Look N Stop firewall.

regrun doesnt use definitions like spy sweeper and ewido so i wouldnt replace them. also consdier that all three cover different areas. which software u need to run as active or on-demand is up to u and ur needs.

Understandable, I am looking for ways to minimize the number of guards I have running and yet be supremely secure. I think I may look into Online Armor...thanks...

I have made a system registry backup about 5-6 month ago with RegRun Gold NIVA and decided to restore it yesterday, so I did and when I restarted my computer would not restart. Does anybody know what is the deal? I run Win. XP Pro with SP2.
