What is your security setup these days?

Maybe not be the strongest defense I've run, but it's probably enough: Sandboxie, MSE and Mamutu.

Edit: That didn't last long. Saw the post below mine by Mongol, at $5 I'll have to try WSA Essentials.

 

You're welcome...

 

Added: SandboxIE

On The Fence: Comodo FW w/ D+

 

Windows 7 SP1 x64, Admin, UAC, Firewall, Update - All default, except no Remote Access and some Services disabled. Blah blah blah.

On-Demand: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (Free) , VirusTotal Uploader.

 

Running sandboxie, Comodo firewall and the newest appguard beta.
It's working so far. Had to add the rules that kidshamrock gave in the sandboxie forum. It is working in lockdown though. Before I could only get it to work in high.

 

Antiviruses have to be my most grievious Nemesis of any software i ever dealt with, nearly on the level with the malware i routinely research.

So here i go again. Kaspersky for my setup is been great as of late and i been content to lean on it with my main net box, but today i'm trialing Eset 5 with it's HIPS feature too.

I absolutely abhor AV's and always have ever since HIPS & Instant Recovery apps made the scene awhile back. For me AV's have just been another tool to help do my malware identity research but i really would might like to settle on a single AV product. It's been like a ping-pong tournament that never ends.

I guess you might say i'm a devoted conservative, preferring to umbrella my main system with the fiercest security ware but with the absolute least amount of taxing on system performance.

We'll see how long this lasts

 

At the moment I am running Kaspersky Internet Security with WSA and Zemana, Secondary scanners Hitman Pro and MBAM, Also OpenDNS with tricked out router firmware. Plus Acronis True Image doing a daily snapshot.

 

Only running EAM on my desktop and EAM + OA on my laptop.

 

Emsisoft Antimalware, LnS with Phant0ms ruleset, MBAM on demand scans only.

 

Emsisoft Antimalware
Webroot SecureAnywhere Essentials
Sandboxie Pro
Malwarebytes Antimalware PRO
HitmanPro
Secunia PSI
Keriver 1-Click Restore free

removed Privatefirewall..... gonna settle down with this setup......pc is whacking malware big time......

 

Points for piling on.

 

......also a little embarrassed .....pc is hitting a bum note......

 

Kinda what i just can't seem to shake whenever running the popular brands of AV's and why theres always a marked upsurge of computer energy whenever i pull them out of my lineup. No matter how current a CPU rating & memory, i always observe a definite "Lag" of the snappiness expected. It's inherent in Windows platforms whenever i install and run resident AV's, with the possible exception of Avira which taxes the system the least and doesn't hiccup among the other security apps meant to offset potential weak zones.

 

except for that I use wsa which is the most compatible and fastest and lightest security.....also security line-up is stacked up in a 1gb ram netbook....you can sure feel the heat of bacon frying from here....

 

Sandboxie...
and then some other stuff.
Perfect for me.

 

some magic stuff?

 

Yup, when you have Sandboxie, everything else is less important...

 

Bought a couple of licenses for Drive Vaccine. Works great. Re-boot and everything is re-stored. OA keeps me protected during a session.

 

Have used Dr Web since 2004 and never had a virus or anything nasty.
Badcompany.

 

Panda Cloud Antivirus, Filseclab Personal Firewall (I may replace this piece of my security setup with Private Firewall) and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro (but on-demand only).

 

Then you are jumping into jmonge's territory

 

go for it......Privatefirewall is awesome and solid .....

 

J's pcs are monsters.....I use my one occasionally to fry up some bacon...he uses his chums to fry up humungous steaks

 

weird i had the same issue with firefox when installed AVG Pro, im starting to feel this is Firefox's fault not the av's.
had to ditch AVG cause of that, shame.

 

I did it , PrivateFirewall is running flawlessly on my old laptop
