Prevx can be your AV app However, if you want something more go for Avira 9, light on system resources

IMHO, not in real-time.

Vista UAC enabled with Norton's UAC tool, Prevx Edge and one of the Sandboxes above should give you a good layered protection. You could also consider a non-IE browser.

You can then use Avira 9 free as an on-demand scanner or one of the on-line scanners for an occasional scan.

LoneWolf I ever thought about Paragon Drive Backup Express I wonder if it is a nice app? Have'nt heard much about it here at Wilders. I might try Avira 9 as a on demand scanner I don't think it would hurt. I was thinking about giving Malware Defender a try but not sure right now. I need to get a imaging backup app. first. And thanks for the replies
