What is your security setup these days?

I still havent decided if I will use Mamutu or ThreatFire. But going with ThreatFire for now.

Im trying to avoid LUA. Would a policy based DefenseWall or Malware Defender be a good way to go?

 

On the desktop-
Windows 7 Ultimate, 32 bit
Avast free version 5.0
Prevx (trial w/o Safe Online)
Windows firewall
MBAM on demand

On the laptop-
Vista Home Basic, 32 bit
Avast free version 5.0
MBAM Paid
Online Armor Premium firewall
Hitman Pro on demand

 

PrevX CSI 3.0= Cloud Malware Database detection. (Also guarantees 100% malware removal on its paid users)

Mamutu = full HIPS with community database which helps by giving you percentage data on how people answer prompts.

Threatfire = Behavior blocker with community database for contributing for its malware defs. and automated response on alerts.

PrevX Safeonline free for facebook users. = Protects browser from keyloggers,isolate browser from other processes,screen grabbing and more it also contains cloud based malware (detection only) because of the built-in evaluation version of PrevX CSI

 

So found a solution to block sites from setting data in chrome while still being able to use facebook chat?

 

I will try later. ^^

 

Thanks for that!

 

At Present:-

1. Windows 7, 32 Bit
2. Returnil 3.1.8774.5254-REL
3. NIS 2010
4. LUA & DEP
5. AppLocker

COMODO TIME MACHINE

 

Experimenting with...

A-Squared Antimalware 4.5
Online Armour Premium
MBAM Pro
WinPatrol Pro


RollBack

 

joe can you handle to run OA nad mbam pro together without any slow down?
last time i tried them they slow me down alot

 

i am currently testing Mamutu,Zemana AntiLogger,WinPatrol Plus and prevx againts malware and all together to see which one response faster and the winner so far is Mamutu

 

Mamutu 2.0 was my winner it blocks all malware i tested againts with if this software has a scaner it will be runing alone here only it

 

Thanks for that jmonge.

My page loading has been funny slow today. Anybody else get that? Im thinking it might be ThreatFire fudging up the works in my system.

 

and if you put this software in paranoid mode is like a hips program lots of pop ups

 

Just bought Sandboxie.

 

in my vista computers i have defensewall and in my xp pc i have prevx and mamutu
note:mamutu in paranoid mode can be a replacement for my MD it is very informative in that mode and it is lite/fast

 

No slowdowns here jmonge.Just one thing tho..MBAM's website blocking is turn off.(because it interferes with almost everything,even with Readon TV movie radio player and blocking some ip for movies )

 

i knew it thanks,the ip blocking is very good but it blocks legit sites too

 

Tempted to try PCTools Threatfire (Never used it before) But people says it sucks

 

Threatfire isn't bad. You just have to make sure that you set the level to at least 4. I had it set to 5 and it only popped up every once and a while.

 

Use threatfire on its own, with hitman pro to scan startup. a-squared free for on-demand scans. Or threatfire and panda cloud.

Keep it lean, great program. Layer it upon a few heavier layers, sure, it will suck. People have to realise it's not some simple 'autorun manager', it's monitoring system-wide changes.

Currently using:

ThreatFire
Hitman Pro
a-squared free (to scan downloads)
WOT in firefox (blocks many malicious sites)
PeerBlock with advertising and spyware blocklists (effective against many malicious sites - blocks a lot of advertising when using IE, Opera, FF, or any browser).

 

Threatfire is very good, I am waiting to see what going on at PC Tools before I try it again though.

 

avast! 5
Malwarebytes
Sandboxie
Shadow Defender

good ?

 

Not far from my setup. Looks good to me, but why Sandboxie AND Shadow Defender? Do you run in Shadow Mode all the time?

 

Which is better ?

 

I think it is fine to run both, you do not need to choose between one or the other.
