thats what i am at the moment and to tell you that this antivirus is amazing i didnt get it for the antivirus but the hips and beh blocker and application protection is very good

 

And it is fast also, how did you set it up? (rising that is)

 

i just downloaded like 10 minutes ago i am playing with the app
specially with the app protection feature and application access control feature is execelenti am making couple of rules as we speak

 

this one can block driver installation or refuse to install cool also can auto protect my messenger from been terminated and manipulated cool stuff

 

I ran it together with DW a while ago, see the thread, was fast and safe

 

thanks,is this free?

 

To my knowledge Rising AV still is free

 

ks
thanks

 

How good is the rising antivirus? I installed the Rising antivirus couple of days ago and it was doing a good job on getting automatic updates and scheduled scan. However, when I tried to watch some live DVD movies from the site www.techsatish.net, I got a rogueware called virusremover 2009. My superantispyware pro edition caught it, but this rogueware installed some other components into my system. I had to do a complete scan using superantispyware pro to get rid of all traces of it. I assume the rising antivirus also should have caught it, but it did not. So, I removed it, and went back to Avast again.

Even now, I am downloading movies from the same site, but dealing with the roguewares as and when they try to get into my system. Avast and superantispyware blocks most of them, but I always do a complete scan using superantispyware pro to make sure that nothing gets into my system.

Thanks,

i just downloaded,i am testing itdont know yet

 

Rising AV gave one of my systems a ton of issues, but, I believe that was due to it not playing nicely with others. Uninstalling it was quite a challenge IIRC.

 

just add an antivirus solution.....

Now:
Threatfire + NOD32 Antivirus

 

Here's my current setup when running windows:
Realtime:
Router
Avira free antivirus
Sandboxie
Firefox with noscript (run Opera browser every now and then)
comodo firewall

On Demand:
SAS
Malwarebytes'anti-malware

I love Sandboxie

 

i can not keep any antivirus in my destop,dont know why maybe cause i have defensewall or dont get convince by them

 

Tried SuRun + Kafu w/ Mrk's fantastic tutorial but this is a Mountain of security. I'll save it for visitor user's because it LOCKS down XP so tight that it's amazing! Not to mention adding some SRP in this mix. Very Secure Indeed!

Highly recommended for dangerous surfers or malware testers. It's 'Da Bomb! Not at all for routine surfers who have some knowledge of security.

well ive re-added PC Tools Firewall again, no matter what, this seems like the firewall that i stick to.

Real-Time:

Avira Antivir Premium
PC Tools Firewall ----> NEW
DriveSentry
Rollback RX

and if anybody knows what the difference between FD-ISR and Rollback RX is, id really appreciate to here whats different between the 2.

 

Trying Threatfire again too.

I'm bound and determined to wait this development out to the end but right now it's working pretty darn good when you add Kee's rules to it.

This Behavioral Blocker has all the elements to rival Mamutu when or if they get it to full completion IMHO.

 

i just deleted rising antivrus and testing threatfire again

 

change my mind and insted of threat fire i decided to add Mamutu

 

I know you have XP Pro, for other's Fajo's addition will give them XP Pro's securiy tab see http://www.fajo.de/portal/index.php?lang=en&option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1

I also have XP Pro now, always add no execute for temp and internet directories as SRP

Mrk and Tlu really add a punch to everyone's security setup (on XP) with their Surun tip's

 

Secunia PSI added - on the grounds that you can't be too careful

 

Appreciate your corrections Kees1958. It's been awhile since i tried to go straight Surun + Kafu and SRP.

lol.... here the same, but i try it to be strong to keep nod32....
