What is your security setup these days?

Did you install the toolbar?

 

Good Evening ! I also have Avira 2013 I.S....but didn't encounter having to download and add a toolbar...maybe in the free version. But as Gery stated 2013 is definitely running nimble and quick...no problems encountered so far. Sincerely...Securon

 

In Avira Premium (paid) you do. I avoided it by choosing custom install.

 

ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5.2 is way too expensive so for now

 

I have done TONS of web surfing over the years, and have used AVG, Avira, and Avast. And even though I am still fond of Avira, I have had the best protection with Avast. it's just a better product, at least on my XP/SP3 machine.

 

no way

 

Ow well you know at least AVG updates once a day. My WSA doesn't even update in a day. Never!

 

Nope it certainly can't hurt.

 

Good for you. Hiding under the red umbrella. I've just gone green you see. Everything is going green these days. Electric hybrid cars, mobile phones and accessories, water system, houses you name it. Let's save our planet. Let's join the green movement. Let's all go for WSA.

 

my license of WSA complete is running out and i am not buying a new one due to expense drop down . It is only Avira for the rest of the year . I gave out the Emsisoft AM and almost everything else . I am tired of installing uninstalling thing. i only have a ZAES license for the 210 coming days and OA SBIE pro and i did gave away my laptop too... with BIS for 2 years . I feel kinda free lol

 

Panda Cloud AV Free + Kingsoft AV Free overkill for my setup?

UPDATE: Not a good idea, my computer lags.. Back to using Kingsoft AV Free only.

 

You can give away pretty nice that's for sure. You wanna feel a little more free? Why not take my help?

 

@eugene91
Why not throw in sandboxie and hitmanpro in the blend?

 

Yep merging two full blown AV's can bring on problems. Webroot would be a good option.

 

Yeah WSA

 

any EmsiSoft Programs are top notch

 

@jmonge
Absolutely.

 

It ran well on my laptop, panda was below a mb but now I have avast and kingsoft

 

lol

 

OK now using WSA 180days trial with Kingsoft AV Free seems light

Hopefully they complement each other?

 

avast free
private firewall
hmp free
norton dns

 

Please do an "experiment".Block in PVTFW any browser,and try after to connect it normally.I bet that even blocked,it connects to internet without problems....

 

First of all where did you get the 180 days trial? Mind sharing the link? And why not just let WSA take control. You could just sit back and relax. See how light and awesome WSA is?

Anyways, afaik the two complement each other pretty nice. But WSA is lighter and stronger imo.

 

Whoa! Really? Now that's not cool.

 

I'd suggest replacing pfw with OA free and adding mbam and sbie to your setup. Now that would make a nice one.
