    New setup is WSA real time, AVG Internet Security 2014 real time and MBAM Pro real time. They run great together on Win 7 64.

    Windows Firewall inbound filtering
    some GPO tweaks

    Will try this out for some time although I might have to type in the admin password more often because of SRP.

    At least until the final version of Appguard comes out I will stick with this.

    Shut off malwarebytes pro because it started to bog down the system a bit. Added sandboxie back in its place.

    Changed few things since last comment.

    I wanted light security and same time good effectiveness, so I replaced Symantec Endpoint Protection.

    Windows:
    - Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    - Configurated Admin account and using everyday Standard User
    - UAC to Default - Always ask me
    - Autoruns/Autoplay disabled
    - Applocker rules to restrict executables, installers and scripts

    Real-time:
    - Microsoft Security Essentials - new
    - Router and Windows Firewall with turned on filter Outbound connections - new

    On-demand:
    - MBAM

    Browser:
    - Google Chrome + Traffic Light + Adblock Plus + DoNotTrackMe
    -Google Chrome disabled third-party cookies and added exceptions for most common used web sites
    - OpenDNS - new

    Additional:
    - Volume encrypted with TrueCrypt with my important stuff like password, bank account etc stored
    -EMET 3.5

    Maybe I will consider to add some light HIPS.

    Thumbs up from me,:thumb:
    KIS is the most complete Internet Security available now, i always recommend KIS to my friends as a install it forget it
    most IS have a strong AV but very weak FW (Bitdefender, Avira, AVG, etc)
    and some (like Comodo, Outpost) have a better FW than the AV
    and Emsisoft IS is still too cumbersome

    I'm saying farewell to DefenceWall. My office PC is going to be changed for a 64-bit Monoblock. I've been using my current PC for about only two month and quite satisfied with it.
