What is your security setup these days?

After years of using Geswall,I've made a switch to Sandboxie

Happy 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Emsisoft Anti-Malware 8....it really is lighter! Nice!

 

Good choice boost. You won't regret that move.

 

Plus by plus equal plus.

I hope you like Sandboxie as much as you enjoyed using GesWall.

Welcome to the club.

Bo

 

Added EMET 4 and trying out TinyWall. Still using the great and powerful Sandboxie 4.03 of course.

 

Ok.
using Avira free and comodo firewall 5.12 with sandboxie.
i was missing sandboxie.

 

Do you think this is too much/overkill for a Real-time setup?

NoVirusThanks EXE Radar Pro v2.7.7 Built 8
HitmanPro.Alert - NEW! Just added
Sandboxie 4.03 (Lifetime)
EMET 4 (Maximum security settings)

And, then of course, the rest is Windows Built-in security.

 

I think not.

 

Nope. Nice and light. Hitmanpro alert is kinda cool. I have it installed. Not really sure I need it since I have WSA.

 

Removed Eset Smart Security.

Using only Windows Defender and HitmanPro.Alert in realtime.

 

Windows 8 Pro x64
System: AppLocker + UAC (Always Notify) + Windows SmartScreen + EMET (Max Security Settings)
Real-time: 360 Internet Security 2013 + Outpost Firewall Pro
Backup: Active@ Disk Image
Browser: Palemoon + NoScript + HTTPS Everywhere + LastPass + DuckDuck Go Plus

 

Not at all

 

Thanks siketa

 

It does run pretty light

Yeah, I like it too...very nice piece of software.

 

Thanks

 

Not overkill at all. Would you mind emphasizing the Win built in security?

 

You don't need it. WSA already covers all of the features. You could simply use HitmanPro alert on your other pcs that don't have WSA installed.

 

My security setup is as follows:
Bitdefender 2014 antivirus
Windows Firewall
Hitman Pro
Trojan Remover

 

Yeah you're probably right. It only uses 3K when running. It hasn't conflicted with WSA. I'll keep it around since it's light enough. Nothing wrong with a little more protection.

 

Nice setup. Any backup plans?

 

Suit yourself. It'll be more like nothing wrong with a little same protection.

 

Windows XP Home SP3 (all updates) Admin account behind a router
1 Microsoft Security Essentials (not the best but after a lot of trials of other antivirus the only one that catch some viruses during browsing)
2 Google Chrome through DropMyRights (with JavaScript Popup Blocker) and trick 1806 (Thanks Windows Security)
3 AdFender (Easylist EasyPrivacy)
4 Norton DNS
5 EMET 4 (for browsers, Foxit Reader, Microsoft Office and VLC player)
6 VoodooShield (SMART) thanks for the great offer
7 MalwareBytes on demand
8 No Java installed

I have read and tried a lot of combinations but the truth is that finally I feel good about my system especially the combination of proactive security during browsing:
DropMyRights+EMET+VoodooShield+Chrome Sandboxed plugins

Any comments are welcome.

 

I guess you use windows inbuilt FW?

I would add some imaging.

 

Good Evening! Well so much for the fourteen day...period for taking Eam V8 for a test drive. Long story short...installed the latest release of Avira I.S.2013...super stable...and smooth performance. And liked the idea of uninstalling the Ask Toolbar Rubbish. It as mentioned is a very impressive release. Maybe just Maybe...some of our constructive critique...reached Avira's decision makers ears! Lol! Try it...what's to lose. Oh both Purplus and the Download Crew have the 2012 Version's on Sale at $19.95 for the I.S. product.Sincerely...Securon

 

Windows Defender, Windows SmartScreen, Windows Firewall, UAC on Max, Group Policy tweaks

and I guess you could count this as well

Windows System Restore

And, in case you're wondering, Why I'm using Windows Defender - Less false positives, more stable, very light, built-in

Plus, the rest of my setup pretty much covers what Windows Defender misses, which is why you don't see me using a third-party AV.
