present rig on XP sp3 :

Safespace
Admuncher
Nod32
OA free
Winpatrol


(and of course FDISR...)

 

So far my OS remains clean and quick with the following setup:

* No anti-virus, but will temporarily install one to run a onetime check, then use FD-ISR to remove it.

* Vista HP with UAC, DEP, firewall, and Windows Defender on.

* Behind a router with NAT firewall.

* Use KeyScrambler for IE 7 only.

* Use Firefox 3 with Adblock Plus and NoScript.

* Use K9 Web protection for content force field.

* Trying ShadowProtect 3.2 (already own Paragon DriveBackup 9) in case I make a real dumb move.

 

Can someone, please start a new thread called, "What is your security setup this hour."

 

I ditched Belarc Advisor, which is out-of-date.
I added MBSA to replace Belarc Advisor, as a newbie, I need alot of advice.
I added Symantec's NoScript.
I added What's Running, because I never know what's running.
I'm dreaming of a behavior blocker.

 

well, at least there is some movement in your camp.

 

Currently running

Router + XP firewall
Dr Web
Defensewall 2.44
Winders Defender
and SAS Pro on demand.

After Monday it will be ESS when I win a free licence.

 

yeah, that apply for the 99% of folks in this thread

 

Well at least your safe on me commenting on yours until July 28th!!!

 

Yes the recovery part is finished, now I'm working on the security part. Not big improvements yet. I can't think when it is too warm.

 

well here i am trying a new different kind of set up and it is as follow

Windows xp3 firewall
Sandboxie
DefenseWall
DriveSentry
Returnil personal

 

Hi

What's Symantec's NoScript?

For a behavourial blocker can't you just use ThreatFire?

Thanks

Thanks

 

OK, I'll start. Here's mine.




An occasonal scan with DrWeb CureIt and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.

 

Trying new setup:

Threatfire + on demand Antispyware (Superantispyware)

 

Antivir Premium
WinPatrol free
Kerio 2.1.5
I uninstalled OA paid.Now My PC runs like a lightning.If I had more RAM and a new machine I would not uninstall OA.

 

Samuari (for hardening)
EQS (HIPS) (Alcyon's Rules 'a Plenty) Of course my favorite baby
Kerio 2.15 (With BZ's Rules)
SandboxIE (Latest)
Cyberhawk 1.1.1.3 (Oldie but goodie) (Stable and a TERMINATOR!)
XP Professional SP2 w/ IE6

That's all for now folks. I keep SuRun and others in reserve but not active and ATM no ISR whatsoever or Virtual Systems.

This is my testbed for simple surfing, no research purposes.

 

Windows XP:

Antivirus : NORTON 2008
Firewall : Outpost
Anti Spyware : Ashampoo
Backup AV : Bitdefender Free

Windows Vista :

Security Suite : Norton Internet Security 2008
Anti Spyware : AVG

 

I ditched Symantec's NoScript, it caused BSOD's on my online snapshot. Had to use my Rescue Snapshot to rollback to a previous online snapshot. After that no BSOD's anymore.
I'm too stupid to find out why SNS didn't like my online snapshot. Since I have ISR, I can afford to be stupid, brain or no brain, it doesn't matter anymore. ISR is my technical brain.
