What is your security setup these days?

Norton Internet Security 2011 : Fast ,Strong & Effective

 

Back to avast! Free. MSE 2 is still too resource intensive.

 

Norton Internet Security 2011 + Norton DNS.
Feel somewhat safe with that
Is Norton DNS really necessary in my case btw?

 

If you use IE/FF (which has the Norton Toolbar) it is not necessary, but if you use other browsers like Chrome/Opera, then he would be a good option.

 

I made some big changes since my last post. Gone are OA and GeSWall. I plan on using OA on a laptop.

Real-Time
---------
Defensewall (Thanks Softpedia)
Returnil Pro (Thanks Dottech)
Privatefirewall
Avira Premium

On Demand
-----------
Malwarebytes
SUPERAntiSpyware
Hitman Pro

Firefox
------
LastPass
Keyscrambler
NoScript
Adblock Plus
Better Privacy
Cookie Whitelist With Buttons
WOT

 

I totally agree. So much for a simple antimalware from the people who probably best understand windows.

 

AIS 5 + DefenseWall HIPS

 

Yet MSE is in your sig?

 

Testing V2 for a while. So far, not a good experience. As far as performance goes, I prefer NOD32, avast! and Norton, in that order.

 

Ah, makes sense now

 

So you got the snake back huh K? hehe you must have missed him. Cool that you have sandboxie back as well I suppose lol...

 

Tell you what..IMO after using sandboxie if you are a power user theres no need of any malware or virus protection..You just need a firewall..I am trying to learn more about sandboxie its awesome..

 

No thank you, I will pass on Sandboxie. Been there done that. I'm cool with my current setup.

 

trying out spyshelter premium is very cool app specially when browser is in restricted mode

 

This may be crazy to some folks and over the board.

This is my paid setup and runs smoothly on my PC:
NIS 2011
Adware - real time
Malwarebyte - real time
SAS - real time
Peerblock -realtime
HMP - on demand

Browser:
Adblocker
Last Pass

I feel very protected and like a fat man not worrying about drive by malware...

Surf the net and often goes to unknown site downloading Mugen characters. You never knows what to expect from those foreign site. I was able to see NIS, Adware, and Malwarebyte goes into action but not SAS.

My hardware consist of 4ssd raid 0, quad cores, and 8 gigibit of memories

 

My suggestion would be to dump ad-aware, change SAS to on demand and add something to protect against 0-day malware like HIPS or sandbox. I use DefenseWall to prevent 0-day malware.

 

I just got Defensewall through the Softpedia offer and so far I really like it. It is unobtrusive yet extremely powerful.

 

I agree with this

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

 

Do not use this, the more you have good hardware, this is too much.

Remove Ad-Aware, and run SAS and MBAM for on-demand, and set the Sandboxie (Preferably to the paid version) and is better protected than all that you are using.

 

i am liking SpyShelter already the browser runing in restricted mode is very powerfull it restrick files from writing to the disk cool

 

Cool J, enjoy

 

thanks

note:i am still waiting for geswall to get a 64 bit version

 

Installed CounterSpy on my family laptop, its running nice so far
