What is your security setup these days?

I have changed my setup a bit since the last time. / OS: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit. Realtime/Ondemand: Nothing.

Passive protection: UAC at max, YandexDNS, Yandex Browser with Flashblock, Ghostery and Vanilla Cookie Manager.
CCleaner run at shutdown to clean browser's cache. All protocols but IPv4 removed from adapters. Pagefile disabled.

 

Now you prefer YandexDNS over FoolDNS?

 

Yandex DNS Safe:

 

Nah...back to Avast.What's in my sig.

 

Yeah, I was still kind of feeling strange using "an unknown" DNS service. No reviews, no info, no forum and blocking ADs actually slows down browsing anyway.

 

Chromebook. I'm loving it as a replacement for XP. Despite the limitations, it still does most everything I currently use a computer for on a daily basis.

 

Why is this Are you saying that it isn,t relevant to XP ...??

 

SBIE is IMO more relevant on XP than on Vista, 7 and 8. IE and Chrome are using built-in restrictions of Vista and later Windows. If I would be still using XP, I would use SBIE 3.76 on it.

Well said

 

Okay thanks for the clarification...I was misreading/.misunderstanding the statement...

I was taking it as DO NOT use AppGuard on XP!

 

Kaspersky IS, and WinPatrol.

 

ESET NOD32 Antivirus 7
Windows Firewall Control 4
NoVirusThanks EXE Radar Pro
WinPatrol PLUS
MBAM Pro (on-demand)

No ads, no junk, no senseless popups, no nonsense.

edit: added on-demand

 

Nice setup...are you using MBAM Pro realtime?If so,i think it's just a little "overweight" with an anti-exe,a "mini-HIPS" and a such good AV that you have...but hey,if it works for you and you like it this way...

 

dd-wrt (OpenDNS)
Windows 8.1.1 Pro x64 (privacy improved and other system tweaks)
Windows Firewall
PeerBlock
AppGuard
WinPatrol PLUS

scheduler/on-demand:
HitmanPro Free
Avira Free Antivirus (maybe change it to Emsisoft Anti-Malware Free)
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free
Macrium Reflect Free

 

I'm using MBAM Pro on-demand only and allowing scheduled updates. I edited my post to show this.

 

Now it's really a nice setup

 

currently trying SecureAPlus it is a nice program

 

is secureaplus anti-executable or hips?

 

i use G Data InternetSecurity 2015,Malwarebytes pro 2.0,Comodo firewall and Hitman pro

 

you have a good arsenal there buddy

 

It is anti-executable (whitelisting software) enhanced with local AV (Clam AV) and cloud AV (Universal AV; currently available only in beta).

 

After testing it for a while I also noticed that my browsing has slowed down. I also think that K9 is more suitable for parental control than for antimalware tool.
