What is your security setup these days?

Still rocking WSA Essentials. I'll continue to use MBAM and HitmanPro as on-demand scanners, but I doubt they'll detect anything.

 

Nice setup Seeker. Light and fast.

 

@ Radeon and @ Arcanez thanks.

 

MSE will not miss a lot of things.... It depends on where you travel online
Do you have good internet? Because Hitman Pro is mainly cloud.

 

Not sure about you but at least for me it does miss a lot of things. In my opinion it has low detection rate compared to other AVs. That's why I moved to Avast.

And yeah that's right, it depends on how you surf and how much files you download in a day. MSE is indeed the best easy-to-use and light AV for a casual user. But if you are a heavy downloader like me (movies,torrent,anime,etc,...) You will surely get into trouble.

3 things that are important to me which are currently unavailable in MSE :
- Web Shield
- Sandbox
- Behavior Blocker
And they are all featured in Avast pro version. I am not promoting Avast. I am just telling my opinion on both products. Who knows, I might change my AV again if avast doesn't satisfy me. For now let's see how it works.

 

havent posted in a while here, running a slightly diff setup now, switched out avast IS for Roboscan IS and its running beautifully.

 

Running Roboscan IS with BD Trafficlight.

 

Whats up firzen! Haven't seen you in a bit. You'll liking Roboscan huh? I've been meaning to try out the free AV roboscan. Haven't had a chance.

 

That's strong setup. How are AppGuard and Malware Defender work together?

 

Moved MBAM Pro to "on demand" so the "real-time" lineup is now limited to:

Sandboxie, Comodo Firewall & Emsisoft Anti-Malware.

 

Looking good there blue.

 

Perfect.

 

Thanks, KJ.

 

What's in my sig.

 

that's lighter ams

 

So...you came at my conclusion after all.That if you have installed the Emsisoft suite (EAM and OA),MBAM Pro and WinPatrol are redundant.Nice setup you have now.

 

This morning I Format a muti user family pc and reinstalled OA premium set in advanced mode and some firewall restrictions of country communications and Browser in safe mode and the GUI password protected from tampering set to Auto lock the Gui.A one and only third party one horse show and its flying.

 

Norton Antivirus 2012.

 

Removed Comodo and have gone back to PrivateFirewall. For some reason I had a hard time wrapping my head around many of the options and settings within Comodo which forced me to rely too much upon setup advice from others.

While I'm sure the advice was good, PF is much more intuitive by my lights (though Comodo certainly had some pluses) and I find it easier to navigate and make my selections in a comprehensible fashion that doesn't require as much reliance on the suggestions of others.

So for now...back to where I was up until a couple weeks ago as regards firewalls.

 

Nah, probably not.

 

Installed Privatefirewall.

 

Router, Sandboxie, OA Free firewall w/program guard, web shield & anti-keylogger enabled, VIPRE AV, MBAM Pro, KeyScrambler Premium, Chrome w/AdBlock & WOT, and Norton DNS. HitmanPro on-demand.

 

Guys I have seen some of you use DNS services such as Comodo Secure DNS or NortonDNS.

Does using these really makes any difference in security ? Does your privacy is granted ? Does visiting URLs gets logged by them ?

And the last question, Which one do you suggest and why ?

 

AppGuard 3.3
Shadow Defender 1.1.0.325

Macrium Reflect ~ System Explorer ~ SeconfigXp ~ AdMuncher

GMER ■ SpyReveal ■ Trojan Remover ■ HitMan Pro
DrWeb CureIt ■ Malwarebytes ■ AVZ Antiviral Toolkit

OpenDNS ~ Opera

 

i really love HitmanPro 3.6 Build 156
