What is your security setup these days?

Did you buy the SBIE license, luciddream?

 

Not yet. I wanted to get a feel for it first. I was just about to pull the trigger, but decided to get my feet wet first. I will almost certainly be purchasing it though. $40 for a lifetime license = heckuva deal.

Same with my VPN. I just signed up for a month, no plan or commitment. If things continue this way for the next 20 days or so I'll be signing up for a year. It's a really good service.

Up until a month ago or so I hadn't payed for any computer software/services for years... since way back when McAfee & Norton were the only 2 AV's I'd heard of. I used Comodo Firewall and the free versions of either Avira or Avast. Use Open Office. Use all free programs. Then after trialing Avira Premium and seeing how light it was, I saw 2 licenses for $25 and me and a friend split it up, $12.50 each. Now it's like I created a monster. I'm purchasing Sandboxie, and a VPN service too. I considered paying for an anti-logging program too (i.e. Keyscrambler paid), but the price is just too steep.

Once you break the seal it's hard to stop I'm a fiend for security. Better than some habits, I guess.

 

Yes, I understand. If you ever want to start a support group, just take a quick look around this thread, right?

Definitely agree that this is better than some habits, too.

And I also believe that it is entirely possible to eventually settle down with a core group of programs, and the spending can pretty much come to a halt, once that state of security nirvana is achieved. The key might be to recognize when you have arrived.

 

Removed VIPRE AV Premium from one setup and installed VIPRE AV Standard and OA firewall (+HIPS) in its place. Both machines now running setup in my sig.

using GesWall for now.

 

Finished testing CIS Beta. Impressed overall, it's shaping up to be a good program. I'm now back to my usual setup minus WinPatrol PLUS; there should be a new build out in a few days so I'll re-install then.
