    Three plus days now since I installed Online Armor and I'm happy to report that the old issue with extended periods of high CPU usage by oasrv.exe appears to be a thing of the past. :thumb:

    Back to trying PC Tools Internet Security 2012. Apart from the BSOD issues it gave me previously it works pretty well.

    Well i took the plunge and installed the new Comodo Internet Security Suite, it surprised me when testing its speed, runs smooth no bumps so far, followed Chirons tutorial and recommend it for those of you that plan on trying it..:thumb:

    Thanks..

    The BSOD only occurred once I started tweaking the packet filtering in the firewall. If the default settings are left alone there doesn't seem to be any problems :p

    My issue was that with Avast and CIS 5,cfp.exe was giving me pretty high CPU usage very often even on idle,that's all.With the new CIS 6 version this doesn't seems to occur.(knock on wood)

    That's an excellent Deal!
    Emsisoft Antimalware + Ikarus, best of both worlds and fully compatible
    i used to run EAM with Avira and WSA

    Nice deal for Ikarus you got there. I'm sure you'll get an EAM deal soon enough.:thumb:

    I'd suggest you to use the two separately. I strongly consider the combo overkill.
