    Currently Using Panda Cloud AntiVirus. Although it is still a fairly young product. Once you got it to worked is has been Running Super Light in background.

    I am currently looking for ONE more Free, Light, and Set it and Forget it Security products.

    Prevx 3.0 Free has been good so far. Except it uses 30MB of memory.

    Are there any other security product that i should take a look?

    I only need one more security product. I dont want to have dozen of security products installed and running at the same time.

    If you could only choose one more, what product will that be?

    P.S I am already using SpywareBlaster and Spybot Search and Destroy

    SpywareBlaster is very light and there is a free version you have to do manual updates on.

    Then you may have a conflict. Only time Prevx climes over 5 megs for me is when its doing a Scan.

    You won't need the Malware removal as it can detect the virus. It just wont remove already existing Malware without a license.

    that is exactly what i mean he can not depend on prevx free as a real time shield in his pc as he can get nail hard and after can not remove infections only adware and mbr rootkits i believe:D

    Supplement PCAV with Threatfire; both lightweight and overall, a good, Free layered defense.

    SandBoxie - To me is not very Simple and easy to use, It is no way new Set and Forget.

    I think i am more looking for HIPS and behaviour blocking - any simple and easy to use and Light ones?
