What is your security setup these days?

i have all of then on high and i set the parental controls too

 

Avast has parental controls? I did not know. How is it J?

 

i was talking about kaspersky

 

Win7 Pro 32-bit:

Binisoft Windows 7 Firewall Control (for easy outbound control)

Google Chrome:
With only “Enable phishing and malware protection” ticked.
Block third-party cookies and site data + Keep local data only until I quit my browser
-Adblock for Chrome: Fanboy Ultimate List and Antisocial List
-Better Pop Up Blocker
-HTTPS Everywhere
-GooglePrivacy Userscript (thanks Moonblood)

1806 trick (thanks Kees)

OpenDNS (blocking Social Networking) + DNSCrypt

EMET 3.5 Tech Preview:
DEP (Always On)
SEHOP (Opt Out)
ASLR (Always On)
All internet facing apps configured

On Demand Scanners:
HMP
MBAM

 

did any one try VirusBuster Internet Security Suite?

LOL. Okay then how is parental control of KIS?

 

Changes:
Norton DNS to Open DNS
Added an alt browser that I really liked: Avant

 

Going to try EAM 7.

 

They got bought out by Agnitum over a month ago.

P.S. Don't buy the software because its leaving the shelves soon and they have a little rule in effect.

 

switched my AV to dr.web. see how this goes.

 

I see you have Comodo Firewall/Defense+, why not put hole security suite (CIS) and then just disable real time AV?

 

thanks cloud for the advise
amit the parental control in kis is nice and easy to control

 

Ah I see J. Well good luck with KIS. How is the fw part?

 

I've finally started using the new EAM 7. Everything is running light and powerful.

 

Dude, thanks for this! Looks like an awesome option that suits my criteria. I don't like that VT was taken over by Google, but oh well. I know the only thing being transmitted will be that file I'm checking. Can't believe I was oblivious to it for so long.

I've installed HMP too. Don't like that it just hurls itself into your OS, but hey... worth it for such a large def. database a right click away.

So now I have MBAM, HMP & VT Hash Check in my shell. I'd say I'm pretty well covered now.

 

Re: Emsisoft Anti Malware 7.xx Thread

avast pro here and it survived a week and going to my second week i love it

 

That's a great combo. What are advantages of VT Hash Check over VirusTotal Uploader?

 

This two are almost the same, but for me VT Hash Check is faster and easy to navigate.
VirusTotal Uploader have some other features (process check...)

 

OK. Thanks for info. Will stay with VT Uploader if they are similar.

 

I added Secure Logon to my system hardening setup.

 

If someone wants to set the Hitman Pro to automatically scans downloaded files, see the tutorial on my blog (blog is in Croatian, but has a Google translator and images).

What do you mean?

 

^ That's a good measure IMO tomazyk ^ I use it too via a GP edit here on XP.

As for VT Hash Check... well, it "sounded" like a good idea. Unfortunately when I try to sign up for an account to get the API Key, it just freezes up on me after I enter my info and click the "Sign Up" button. Nothing happens...

 

I mean that it doesn't have a custom install to let you choose where you install it to. It just automatically puts itself into the Program Files folder of your OS partition. I personally like to keep my OS isolated from everything else. I have separate partitions for my programs, data, games, studio software, etc... Also Firefox, Sandboxie, & Comodo have their own partitions.

Isolation is part of my security approach.
