    Bert- I agree with guest. Zemana AntiLogger is superfluous if you are using CF at my settings. The reason being CF will already block both of the pathways by which keyloggers (and other info stealers) work- first, the acquisition of data would be prevented, and second, the transmission out by the malware will be blocked.

    For me, I'm using only ESET Nod 32 Antivirus + Windows Firewall on two of my laptops.
    Avira Free + Windows Firewall on my desktop.
    I don't often play with risky sites, so that configuration is good enough and have served me for several years without any compromises.
    Once a month, I ran Malwarebyte Anti Malware Free to check if Nod 32 missed anything (nothing by far) :)

    Removed AdGuard. After testing both extensively, I much prefer the granularity uBlock Origin offers, particularly in Medium mode.

    Thanks for the chrome://flags tips. Will try the ones I'm not using.

    FWIW, I've dumped Click&Clean due to popup reminders and developer ignoring negative comments about them. Using Auto History Clear instead.

    On all machines, i "replaced" Windows Defender by Webroot for some testings, then miraculously all my systems get more responsive (faster boot, faster access)...so i decided to keep it for a while...
