    @adam993

    Nice simple setup you got there.

    @Noob

    Yea I know right it was weird looking at, I thought I was using EAM for a sec just a different color when I had Mamutu installed:D

    @jmonge

    I'm not a fan of sandboxie. Caused issues for me as well so I just uninstalled.

    removed prevx and updated KIS to 11.0.2.556 "CF2"

    Win 7 HP 32bit (admin UAC default)
    KIS 2011 11.0.2.556 (a.b) (interactive mode, internet facing apps sandboxed by default, custom firewall rules)
    EMET 2.0
    Paragon B&R 10 Free
    vba32 cmdl (every 30 days)

    KIS is really light now! :thumb:
    Norton IS 2011 licenses that I bought weeks ago will now be christmas gifts. ;)

    Tried Gdata 2011 antivirus for a few days, running alongside Prevx paid and windows firewall. Gdata is impressive as it is much lighter than any prior release. Maybe it runs lighter on Windows 7? Either way, I would recommend it but I think I'm headed back to Avast Pro soon.

    Prevx SO is a great choice. I would keep hitman as on demand though.

    Don't need Hitman Pro Free. Even if I scan and find something I wouldn't be able to remove it anyways without paying for a license so there is no point in having it. Plus I could always scan my laptop with Prevx as a second opinion scanner anyways.

    LOL like I said there is no point in me having it on my laptop. If you found use for it on your system thats good. I don't have a use for it personally on my laptop but I do have on a usb drive for usage in cleaning up infected systems along with a few other security apps. I used it a week ago to help clean up a friend's infected pc.

    I intend to switch from Avira Premium 10 (used it for a couple of months) to Avast IS. Have never used it (only the antivirus). Could you please tell me if you have encoutered any problems using it with Prevx Paid and Sandboxie (not gonna install Avast's sandbox).
