    I'm currently using Emsisoft Anti-Malware only at the moment.
    is it good enough for real time security?
    what are some other good on-demand scanners?
    should i get sandboxie or shadow defender?

    and im using windows 7 64 bit
    Thanks!

    Both are "better" they don't work the same way as one is cloud based and the other is not, and they include different features. And you could use both on-demand without issues if you like. :)

    What SweX said. And for Sandboxie, you could try the free version to see if it works for you, then if you want to use more than one sandbox or just want to support the developer's work you could purchase a license.

    Free Sandboxie has a nasty 5 sec delay before loading (after 30 days of trial).
