mbam + comodo fw & d+.. do i still need an av?

I wouldn't be surprised. When I used it, it frequently froze and crashed both IE9 and different Chrome versions 13-15. I did a test a few days ago though it and it worked without crashing on both IE9 and Chrome 14.

 

I now added the 2 .exe files that are running all the time to the exclusion list of mbam & comodo.. maybe this will help.

 

Hi Zakazak

You seems an expert user so I think you can do with CIS full suite alone, no need of MBAM. Just up the security level of autosandbox from partial to the level which you find suitable for yourself. I am running CIS with defaults & never got infected.

I think however a product is developed to be compatible with other products, products like AV's with realtime will give problems time to time like slowdowns, hangups, etc if the products of the same nature are installed i.e 2 AV's with realtime protection. Any update/upgrade can bring slight/major compatibility prob.

Just what I think & have experienced few times.

Thanxx

mbam pro adds a lot of protection in my opinion.. It dedects many things which other security program's (for some reason) won't detect. Also I really like its web-protection (which also seems to block some IP's in IM's and P2P).

at the moment I#m more worried about trusteer rapport Which also seems to not work with firefox7

 

Trusteer Rapport will not work with firefox 7 until they update to do so.

 

Well I contacted the support.. the gave me some download link. i updated and now it works

 

Good means they updated it to work.

 

yep.. also did another 0-day malware test today with CIS & MBAM Pro:

~Links removed~

out of 52 files/links one .exe file could save itself to appdata/roaming and was cleaned with mbam quick scan.

Some files were sandboxed by comodo automatically and then sometimes removed by mbam. If mbam didn't dedect them, I let those files out of the sandbox to see if D+ would give any "real warnings".

I think thats quite a good result.. My realsystem adds NortonDNS + Trusteer Rapport (and some windows tweaks like applocker)
