What is your security setup these days?

Hi,
The concerns i have involves the comodo sandbox,it is not detecting any malware at all within the virtual environment and the firewall does not give alerts in the virtual kiosk.
Upon browsing the comodo forum i have discovered i am not alone with these issues,Im not certain if its by design that the av is not detecting anything in the virtual area.
I have tested this myself running the eicar testfile,in sandboxie comodo is detecting just fine but not in its own virtual browser.I was also experiencing problems resetting the sandbox as it would go into a reset loop.

 

After 18 months of no AV on my main personal machine, I have re-imaged to a clean state and am now using Bitdefender AV Free as my only security product.

 

This is by design. It troubles me as well. Interesting, does BB and HIPS (apart from restrictions) are active in the sandbox?

 

Im going to wait until the next update before going back to a comodo image.I love the software but would like to see the av alerting to malware presence in the virtual environment.

 

Thanks! I was also reading that there's a lot of people who complain about the security/privacy level achieved by the Fully Virtualized sandbox. I ended up with the impression that at this point Untrusted sandbox is more secure and offers better privacy. Hopefully they can work things out in the future.

 

This may be off base but earlier today i was reading a post at the Sandboxie forums and found a thread that may apply here..

Good Evening! Using Emissoft A/M...and WSA Essentials...Everything running in Sync...Snappy...and Responsive...Sincerely...Securon

 

Considering you've used it before no real need to say this, but I'll say it again...

It will serve you well

 

added Bitdefender Free Cloud Antivirus to my already existing setup.
let's see how this turns out
added Exceptions to my Resident main AV Avira for Bitdefender Folders.

 

i will try spyshelter premium today and see how go

 

Bitsdujour will soon have a 50% discount on it...

 

I'd love to try spyshelter firewall. Is that going on sale too or just premium?

 

Using...

avast! Free Antivirus 8,
Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro 8,
NoVirusThanks EXE Radar Pro x64

 

Nice set up..

 

thanks siketa for the info

 

Thank you good sir, I like yours as well

 

mine is simple defensewall and ikarus antivirus

 

I would love to use or test defensewall, but still no 64-bit

Nice setup by the way

 

thanks buddy

 

It is just for SS Premium but there was an option of upgrade from Premium to Firewall for €9,99 however it is not listed on their site anymore

 

Thanks pablozi. I've been thinking about giving it a whirl. I like the fact that it's a firewall and HIPS.

 

And it is very light on resources
The only thing that I am missing in x86 version is keystrokes encryption (it is vorking on x64 systems).

 

KJ...if you were any lighter we'd have to nail your shoes down! WSA is pretty amazing!!!

 

Yeah it is. I figured I'd use Spyshelter firewall instead of NVT. Or maybe even use both. NVT is pretty light and not too noisy.
