    Thanks, I do feel much better using this setup. It's like when you buy your first house, you just know...It feels right. That is the feeling I get using this setup, I am satisfied, after pulling contemplating for so long. I tried out the Keriver 1-Click, it seems pretty good, But I like the features Cobian Backup (Gravity) has to offer more...If you get the chance, you should check that out (It's FREE) Figured I would mention that one.

    I have used keyscrambler before, I had the premium version at one point and it operated quite well for awhile, but most recent version gave me problems...So, I uninstalled it.

    Skydrive is a good service, I use that from time to time.

    I did like some features of Keriver 1-Click, but ended up not liking it totally, So I am giving Cobian Backup (Gravity) for a spin.

    As for tightening down Comodo and Sandboxie, I went ahead and done so.

    You have some good ideas though, Thanks for your help

    Yeah, for some reason it ended up turning red, giving errors and no longer giving me scrambling letters in the tray icon....Couldn't get it to work after all that. It's a bummer too, because when it does work...It's awesome.

    My NEW Setup:

    Realtime Protection:

    -Webroot SecureAnywhere Complete
    -Emsisoft Anti-Malware 6.5

    On Demand Protection:

    -Malwarebytes
    -Hitman Pro

    I hope it is a good and save protection.
    How often do you guys let the on Demand scanners scan your computer?

    Greats,

    Your setup looks good man, good job. I usually run an On-Demand scanner if I've been dealing with a lot of files. I usually scan if I feel like it's needed. If you think something got through, then I would say do a scan.

    Some people constantly do scans quite frequently. I guess it's just based off your best judgement. If you use an On-Demand scanner with a built in scheduler, you can also have it scan ever so often if you like.

    did you set internet access and start/run access restrictions?.....drop rights?....read-only access, write-only access, blocked access to file access and registry access? .....blocked access to ipc access?......windows access and com access?.......user accounts?.....automatically delete contents of sandbox?......lock configuration?.....forced folders like windows cd/dvd autorun?.....separate sandboxes for browsers, usb flash drives, cd/dvd drives, etc?......

    btw, are you using sbie free or paid?......

    Check, Check and Check + Everything else.

    At the moment I am using Sandboxie Free, but will be purchasing a lifetime license before it expires.

    Well thank ya, I do like the setup as well. I feel at ease. Yesterday I was set on BufferZone Pro, but after reading your replies from previous posts and of course doing more extensive tests....You made me switch to sandboxie. Thanks man, you have been a huge help. Plus, Wilderssecurity is extremely addicting, can't stop logging in HaHaHa:D

    Five thing's sold me on sandboxie

    1. A cheap lifetime license (On as many computers you like)
    2. Always updated
    3. Features and Configuration options
    4. Popularity & positive reviews
    5. Test results

    Sandboxie is truly amazing.

    Bufferzone is good as well, but I doubt it's future development
