    Idk about you. But I don't measure lightness based on the RAM usage :)

    Edit: FYI for me WSA uses 2MB total, not 6MB ;)

    Trying Anti-executable. Working well so far. DLL monitoring lags to heck though. Is it worth while to buy AE if I don't/can't use DLL Monitoring? I have SRP on but wanted an extra layer (mainly for the guest account I sometimes let my friend use)

    it's all in the sig.

    - UAC @ maximum: because it's free and light and don't bother me too much.

    - IE9: runs in Protected Mode (some type of sandboxing) under UAC at default or maximum level.

    - Look 'n' Stop Firewall: just added this little beauty yesterday!
    It's small and runs light and easy to use.
    too bad Windows 7 own firewall does not have an easy way to control outbound connections.

    - On-demand scanners: Hitman Pro, then virustotal if i feel like it.

    - Image For Windows: imaging, or how i was able to re-format, re-install Windows 7 and all my programs with my own tweaks and settings.
    in 3 minutes and 43 seconds. ;)

    - Password Depot: password management made easy and secure with built-in anti logging measures.
