What is your security setup these days?

Then :
Geswall
Antivir
Comodo Firewall (no D+, no AV)

A year or so later :
Default Deny SRP
LUA
Antivir

Now :
Default Deny SRP
LUA
Antivir

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

 

Back to nice long sig

 

Still the same and it proves to be may be the best set-up I've tried so far - no conflicts, very light, bug-free and reliable. But I would like to add something as default-deny HIPS that is compatible or probably a tweak in the system to serve as default-deny. Could you help me with advice or/and helpful links?

How can winpatrol be on demand protection ? its real time light hips software

 

the Champ i love all this program here in my list and winpaytrol is patrolling in real time only hitman pro is ondemand here

 

I have disabled its automatic startup and will use it during new software installation only, to keep an eye on critical system points changes. It is light weight HIPS, but since version 19 it is causing CPU spikes at random and even after trying lot of fixes, I am unable to get rid of those spikes. BTW, Scotty has never barked for last three weeks.

The display reminder to buy is no limitation, the sandboxie remain fully functional

Success! I found a cure for my parents malware magnet problem: Firefox with added protection from Ghostery and AdBlock Plus.

 

See someone else agrees with me and likes J's long sig

 

You changed again, huh. Did you tame the snake or did he just slither away

Hmp, I will put the Web up against all of that.

 

LOL if you say so K. Hahaha.

 

Only one real time: Startup Monitor
Scanning: Virus Total
Testing: Sandboxie

 

testing hitman pro beta it is nice beta

 

I see you got that nice long sig back. WTG J lol

 

The sig got Bigger

 

Replaced avast with emsisoft for the time being

edit - replaced emsisoft with ess
emsisoft is very slow compared to others

 

Isn't it a bit redundant to have Norton DNS? Don't the ratings come from Safe Web? As far as I know, Safe Web blocks access to malicious domains as well. Or, does Norton DNS provide protection based on other ratings as well?

 

The_ChamP LoL the signiture got way bigger than before but for sure i will only run PrevX and WinPatrol Plus only i guez i am even thinking about buying hitman pro i think prevx alone is very capable of protecting ones computers
