    Okay thanks, always checking things out in case I ever have to change something. Programs in my signature have been working good together. Waiting to hear the future of Malware Defender.

    Tried the new BB (behaviour blocker) beta(in German) about a month back
    and it seemed good, but after a few days realised my "command" of German
    was likely to lead me astray!! Why is G-Data such a big download? Saw it at
    Rokop forum.

    Though it changed just a bit in recent updates, now the tuner, internet and other tabs are added behind the e-mail tab.
    I'll get some pictures from my VM :D

    It is a long time since my last post in this thread so :
    Samsung laptop: Online Armor + Avira 10 Premium
    HP laptop: Comodo Suite
    File Server: Online Armor + Avast 5 + WinPatrol
    Gaming PC: Zonealarm Security Suite
    Dev PC: Vipre + Online Armor Free
    Wife's PC: Vipre + A-squared antimalware + Online Armor
    Mediacenter: Online Armor Premium + MSE

    All PCs have MalwareBytes + A-squared free + SAS + Hitman Pro as on demand scanners.
    Sandboxie is also on all my PCs.
    File server also runs Spybot.

    Behind a router with the following.


    Added:


    Comodo v4 Firewall/D+ on Paranoid mode

    Opera

    Chrome

    Prevx Free

    Peerblock

    Secunia PSI

    Avast 5 Free



    On-Demand Scanners:

    MBAM Free

    SAS Free

    Hitman Pro



    Removed:

    MBAM Real-time

    SandBoxie

    Firefox


    Under Consideration:

    Returnil


    I'm really trying to get away from real-time protection as much as possible. After some consideration, I finally made the move away from Firefox. To work around the lack of NoScript and AdBlock Plus, I have added the MVPS Host file to my system to combat ads and some malicious websites. As far as Javascript goes, due to both Opera and Chrome being less vulnerable, I have opted to keep Javascript on as neither browser gives the ability to tweak script settings beyond on or off, and far too many websites are rendered useless with it off.

    firzen, how's eset running? It's 'itching' to be installed. ;) The automatic scan of removable media is a definite plus.

    its running pretty smoothly and light, dont notice a diff between NOD32 or avast so its def nice and light. a couple "irritations" but nothing system critical, just personal preference annoyances. but overall pretty good so far.

    ye i won the smart security as well, but with the way ESET works wen u try to disable certain modules, i cant handle dealing with the contstant yellow icon because i wuld be disabling the firewall and antispam if i did use the suite, even having the email scanner in NOD32 is kinda annoying for me since i cant fully disable it without getting a stupid yellow icon and no way of turning that off either...
