What is your security setup these days?

New Security Setup

I'm in the process of reformating my pc and was thinking of changing my current setup. I have been using Panda Cloud for close to a year but am a little weary of the program not having an option to disable automatic upgrades. Version 2.0 has been worse than 1.5.2 IMO.

I'm thinking of going with LUA + SRP + Sandboxie Free + Avast Free (File System Shield only) + Ghostwall + MBAM Free + HitmanPro Free

 

I liked GeSWall on my Mom's 32-bit PC, but it seems they are not developing it anymore, and have abandoned the 64-bit version

However, I had removed it because it wouldn't work with Chrome or IE9.

 

When you say "still" have you been using it the last few days? Because your signature and avatar have been blank the last few days.

bought and am using nothing else now but VoodooShield.

 

Added AppGuard

 

Removed my anti-virus (Returnil).
System start-up, responsiveness, cpu usage, etc. improved.

Will now let Sandboxie, Online Armor, EMET, and daily scans of HitmanPro to protect my computer.

 

Hellou to all
I'm new on this forum.

@Techwiz
Why did you give up from BufferZone?

 

Good God, Some poor computers.LOL

 

How do you like it, trjam?

 

Wow you finally added AG! Awesome man. You know you could keep sbie and use it with AG. Anyways, I think you would not need any other app. Just go with AG + HMP and malware will bounce off your system.

 

You talking to me Dave? All my pcs are poor you know.

 

No,not you.

 

LOL. OK then.

 

@Dave
Hey how do you like AG now that you've been using it for a long time? Do you get bored sometimes, that you are just safe with it? No more malware no nothing. No action. No fireworks.

 

ANy suggestion about EMET settings when is first time installed?
Put everything on max and what else?

Tnx

[EDIT]

OK, i found something here:

Next Run EMET, and click the "Configure System" button. Make sure the following is configured:

DEP is set to always enabled
SEHOP is set to opt-out
ASLR is opt-in enabled


After which you can start to add applications to EMET, select the "Configure Apps" button at the bottom of the window, and use EMET to provide extra protection to your programs. Examples:

Web browsers
Media players
PDF readers

 

Found a personal giveaway on a gaming forum and got a license. Lucky me.

Now using Malwarebytes Pro alongside PCAV Pro. PRO power!

 

I love it,does its job very well.Yes its one of them quiet programs of no excitement like a paranoid Hips, but thats what i like about.
When I install I need to lower its protection,So I save the files to a download folder then with Hitman Pro enable shell intergration right click scan files first before running the executable and run it shadow mode before I commit changes to my HDD.Any new software has to earn its way on.If its not worthy it gets the boot.

 

Congrats. Are you using website blocking also?

 

I like fireworks. Glad to know you are in silent mode.

 

Thanks! Yes I am. It complements Panda Cloud very well. RAM usage did go up but the setup still feels very light.

 

Ah! Great. MBAM is very good at complementing other security apps and is very much compatible. That's it's always in my setup. Did you test if website blocking works properly? Visit iptest.malwarebytes.org

 

I did not know about the test page. Thanks.

To be honest I couldn't live without fireworks either.

 

I removed Peerblock and Malware Defender. What's left is in my sig.
