What is your security setup these days?

So much for going AV-free. NOD32 and WinPatrol Plus are back on.

An odd side-note: ClearCloud DNS started blocking Wilders on my computer a couple of hours ago.

 

I experienced the same thing, wasn't able to access Wilders for some minutes. However, I never got the CC's blocking page... the address was just not getting resolved... so I'm doubtful as to wether CC was the cause...

 

Same here with OpenDNS.

BTW: Now trying Norton Internet Security 2011.

 

When I took off CC, I could get into Wilders. When I put it back on, couldn't get in. I guess it could be coincidence.

 

look what @cgeek posted... odd coincidence indeed. anyways, i'm glad we are all back online!

 

That is very strange. Why would both OpenDNS and ClearCloudDNS see Wilders as a site to filter? I guess it will be remedied pretty fast.

 

Using ISP's DNS, I couldn't get in...

 

So maybe Wilders was just down for a while?

 

i guess so...

 

Not using Kis's firewall ?

 

Would KIS 2011's CF2 "fix" custom inslallation?

 

Just Widows firewall and anvir task manager real time
Hitman pro (Paid) Ondemand

more than 5 months . 0 virus

 

I am using KIS firewall. DefenseWall firewall is very simple (allow/deny only), while KIS firewall has much more option (port stealth, better rules management, NIP, etc.). Luckily, both do not conflict with each other. I do use KIS firewall preferably. DefenseWall firewall is to control untrusted processes communication.

 

Custom installation might return in 2012 version. Currently, there is unofficial command line to install only required components without any error. I have installed only required components of CF2 (no Anti-Spam/Mail-AV/Parental Controls).

 

Both of the firewall dont slow down browsing ? i have never used defensewall as no x64 version so i dont know how it behaves

 

DefenseWall do not have capability to filter contents/internet traffic. It does not have network intrusion prevention. It does not have policy based rules/port management. It is simply Allow/Block. It works without any problem in conjunction with KIS 2011 CF 1/CF 2.

This thread talks about what happened to Wilders. I had the same thing where I couldn't get into Wilders for a while.

 

On windows 7 (x64):

Avast free, password protected and set to do daily quick scans and weekly full scans.

Once every month (or something like that), i use Ccleaner to:
- Check startup entries
- Check installed programs
- Erase restore points
- Clean unnecessary files
- Clean the registry

Then i run a full scan with MBAM free, SAS free and Hitman Pro.
Run Ccleaner again to erase files and registry entrys, and use Auslogics Disk Defrag to defrag and optimize system.
Finally, i create a system backup image using windows 7 restore and backup center

 

Ah ok thanx for explaining

 

5 Hours at least for me

 

Thanks Boyfriend.
