What is your security setup these days?

Hmmm...But I thought you said that your Brother didn't allow you to install ANY security software at all, after the last fight you two had

 

Well that was an interesting experiment but it's back to the configuration in my signature. Prevx and Online Armor Premium work so smoothly together there's no point in shaking things up eh?...

 

Anybody using Avast AV Pro or Avast IS with SandboxIE ? I am asking this because if you use SandboxIE with Avast 5 (All Shields Enabled), then you sandbox browser won't open, probably there is some problem with Avast Script or Web Shield..

 

Realtime: ESET NOD32 Antivirus v4.2, ZoneAlarm Pro Firewall v9.3
On-demand: Hitman Pro 3.5

That's about it.

 

There are Avast templates in SBIE. Are you using them?

Always worked OK for me although browser load was slow (around 10 seconds) it did work. A month ago or so though some changes to either product might affect this.

Resource access monitor in SBIE might show any conflicts so you can open the right doors in SBIE to resolve it.

Cheers

 

Wife's laptop, since it is a default deny (Rmus will be proud ), I figured highest risks come from on-line shopping (ISP scans mail), she has not encountered a virus in years, so dropped the realtime AV (MSE) in favour of PrevX SafeOnline free

Windows7 Ultimate
- FireWall 2-way (outbound only application filter, no ports & protocols control = agree STEM I am lazy )
- LUA + SRP deny execute
- Hardening through Group Policy (e.g. autorun USB off, only runonce allowed other autorun registry entries blocked for LUA, also autorun directory and creating new tasks)

Iron's with internal sandbox (only with three green marks ones on a row she promised to enter banking/credit card info)
- McFee SiteAdvisor
- WOT
- PrevX Free Facebook (finally found a way to reduce disk I/O *)

On demand
- A2 emergency kit


* Settings PrevX
- Safe on-line = default
- Heuristics max, apply after age, age max, popularity off
- Scanner = MBR scanning off

Three green checkmarks on a row = okay to pay on-line

 

I am sure, your wife is security expert now.. Hats of to Ma'am and you !!

PG rocks what about this one?did any one tried this one?

Currently consider my setup ultra light
Anyone got some recommendations? For another layer

 

MD and you know who be damned!

 

Well, at least i got him used to EAM (He used to complain a lot about the BB)

Also he stopped disabling EAM I told him to stop doing that because i always find malware and it seems he's following my advice

 

Back to Sandboxie and Avast File Shield and Mamutu and MBAM real-time. MBAM slows the browsing down a bit, but I sure do feel safe.

 

Yes my security history PG, SSM, AH then GW and DW

Antohook was great, I had it running with SensiGuard (FW + file protection)

 

Not working for me today also.. I have installed it on a clean machine... but all in vain.. I have to run firefox three time in a row, then n only it starts...

 

Back to good ol' setup :

Comodo firewall only (no D+, no Sandbox, no AV)
MSE 2.0 beta

 

My Updated Setup

1. Windows 7 Ultimate x86 (Paid)
2. Limited User Account
3. User Account Control (Maximum)
4. Data Execution Prevention (DEP)
5. Structured Exception Handler Overwrite Protection (SEHOP)
6. Enhanced Mitigation Evaluation Toolkit (EMET)
7. GData Internet Security 2011
8. SandboxIE 3.46

Comodo Time Machine & Auto-Run disabled.

 

this is how well protected my system is with this 3 hips in my sig that i can fully install the security tool ofcourse allow but without "remember the yes answer"then reboot and follow by one pop up alert and hit denny and end of story

 

avinashr check your pms

 

Giving Microsoft Security Essentials 2.0 a test drive. Does anyone know what the Real-Time Protection>Scan Incoming/Outgoing files setting does?

 

Good Evening ! Real-Time...PrivateFirewall...7.0.20.47...A/V...Avira Premium...Prevx 3.0 with Safe On-Line...On Demand...BugBopper...Hitman-Pro...O/S Windows 7...Primary Browsers...Firefox...Goggle Chrome. Sincerely...Securon

 

That confused me too, guess it's their way of saying write/read.

 

Using ClearCloud DNS & MSE 2.0 Beta.

 

I have now Windows 7 Home Premium x64 with everything on default, except UAC, which is enabled but can't dim desktop.

Norton Internet Security 2010 came preinstalled, when its trial time expires I will install Microsoft Security Essentials.

There are other HP security tools that came preinstalled, all of them were left on their default settings.

I also installed Secunia PSI, but I don't leave it running.

 

I want to add a good Classical HIPS (Aside from MD).
Any recommendations
Can't try Comodo because it conflicts with EAM
