Default Re: You can only have 4 Anti-Malware apps: What would you run?

ye. you have changed your setup again!

with kav im worried about the bad update problem happening again.

but kav+prevx1
or kav+online Armour would be good.
but then i would need a firewall if i had online Armour wouldn't i?

that was a one time thing and could happen to any vendor. And has from what I hae read. Eset had server issues, but that doesnt take away from the high quality of their product.

i agree with you trjam as i have said before it could happern to any vendor. i know that sometimes f=secure updates dont install properly and fail a so called CFC check. im guessing it checks it and if its corrupt then if it is corrupt it dont install it. but dont quote me on that because im just guessing that is what the cfc check is for. if anyone know what it is please tell me

If i could only have 4.

1. Firewall
2. HIPS
3. AV
4. Backup image.

Not naming products as there are lots that fall into these categories. But i would like those categories covering.

1. Look 'n' Stop (+ Router)
2. Prevx1
3. FirstDefense-ISR (Frozen Snapshot = Anti-Changes)
4. ... (I'm waiting for a thread with only 3 Anti-Malware apps.)

Look 'n' Stop is a bit overkill, but everybody makes mistakes.

Overkill!

Try 0 AV and AMW no firewall and dive in with IE (x) in default mode.

Then you would find out what overkill really means.

4 locks is better than 3.

WS,

When trying all these different combinations of security software (i.e., v15), what do you do to keep your system clean, tweaked, and running well (i.e., installing and uninstalling software often leaves behind files/drivers/etc. that can cause problems with future installs)?

TIA
