What is your security setup these days?

Are you actually looking for the one "scheme" that really fits all your criteria perfectly, or do you have an addiction to the add/remove button?

Seriously though, do you ever see yourself finding what works and subsequently stop trying things out? Or do you just loving testing applications so much you don't care about the security? If so, maybe you should find a job testing and reviewing software. You would do well at it I think, even if it was just a moonlighting job for some extra $$ every now and then.

I think he likes to replace his HD alot.

 

Malware why do you like to keep attacking my parents desktop?

Added CounterSpy to my parents desktop.

 

Again it happens J. You need to be careful maybe we should have a fire marshal standing by everytime you try new security setups

 

Gone for a light setup. Installed GesWall 2.9.1 and avast free beta 5.1. Setup feels really light and I don't think anything will be getting past GesWall.

 

FINALLY INTERNET WOOO, i'll give G-Data a try

 

ESET Smart security
No script
AVAST( it´s off)
SpySweeper
KeyScrambler

 

I've wondered the very same thing

 

Hey lets not be pointing fingers now. Lest of all people that frequent around here. People in security glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

 

Back to my basic classical setup.
Still haven't changed to x64 but

EAM v5 + KeyScrambler and Windows Tweaks

 

Welcome back Noob

 

Thanks man.
Currently looking for good on demand options that also offer removal capabilities (Ex. Malwarebyte).
Not HitmanPro because to remove i would need to activate a trial

 

DrWebCureIt? Emsisoft Emergency Kit ?

 

Already got EAM
Malwarebytes is a good one, i'll give it a try

 

win 7 32bit- avira premium + spyshelter premium + hitman pro
win 7 64 bit - Emsisoft Antimalware + hitman pro

 

Real time :
KIS cf2 and Spyshelter

Moved WP to on demand

Trying vmware for additional security layer

 

K you the man, you added my favorite app to your 64-bit system

 

Nice Noob I pretty much have the same setup as you. Keeping it simple

 

Removed Zemana (because I noticed a slowdown) and replaced it with SpyShelter Free...

 

guys how is trendmicro internet security

 

jmonge, it's now called "Titanium Internet Security"...

I've tried Titanium and wasn't really impressed:
- it doesn't have a good detection rate (it relies mostly on its web protection) or cleanup abilities
- doesn't have a real firewall (only a "Windows firewall optimization")
- uses a lot of memory (surprising considering it's a cloud AV)
- has very few settings
- it's expensive

 

To be honest that is the only thing I like about the new Trend Micro. I hope more suites go that way, since most firewalls we see don't add anything to the Win7 firewall (also Vista). Next to that Win7 firewall has a lot of fans (like me), who just stay with the Anti-Virus product because they don't need a firewall, and find tuneup/backup/parental control/etc. bloatware. The only firewall in a suite which is really adding value is in my eyes the firewall in Kaspersky.

 

For what I've seen and heard it doesn't have good cleanup abilities either. Seems like a wasted product to me

 

+1 for above statement.

 

Do you use Avira's web guard?
