shadowdefender + ssm + windowsfirewall .

perfect！

 

Not bad!

To scan files you want to commit with shadow defender, you might add something like a-squared free, which isn't real-time, but you can use as a right-click on-demand scan.

 

Problems solved?

 

Ah ok no worries mate. Reason I asked because I just looked at some of your posts on the Comodo Forums and you mentioned how scanning speeds on-demand differ between virus database updates.

Cheers,
Josh
