What is your security setup these days?

And configuration is on Proactive ?
btw I don't think you would want heuristics on High, Low is fine, Off is even better (FP wise)

 

I am keeping my setup as simple and light as possible:

DefenseWall 3.02
ShadowDefender

Wife's Laptop:
DefenseWall 3.02
Avast Free

 

I have defense+ on paranoid and Firewall on custom policy. I have the AV set to on access and high for heir. So far it isn't too bad. I would say that it was on par with as many alerts as OA++. It did find somethings in my system restore that OA++ didn't find. It does have some FP but I'm able to figure them out and send them out to analyse.

 

DefenseWall 3
Hitman Pro

 

Just taking a break while I test out some different security combos.

What do you guys think?

 

you might want to try Prevx SafeOnline free full version
http://prevx.com/safebook.asp

you can replace Immunet with this, it will add protection against browser process manipulation, antikeylogging, antiphishing etc.

 

I had Prevx SafeOnline free full on my system however i think it conflicts with this http://www.octoshape.com/index.php?page=showcase/play&lang=en a program to stream radio station. It crashes the browsers..

 

Fill in a compatibility issue report on prevx board here... they will fix your problem

 

How come you use PeerBlock? When I ran it I didn't experience a lot of updates except for the P2P list, and so I found it a waste of cycles, etc.


Thanks

 

raven how is your PEG2 doing man?are feeling faster?

 

I don't like the GUI, nor the popups - personal taste, looking elsewhere.

 

mmmm ok

 

Reinstalled Panda Cloud Antivirus,, tempted to try KIS 2011 IS suite

 

I'm at odds on what to install. I'm kind of liking comodo. I also like using EAM and OA w/ geswall. OH whats a man to do.

 

Try CIS. I don't think you will be disappointed. I'm loving it right now. And free, you can't go wrong.

 

Yeah I have CIS complete and MBAM running at the moment. I'm missing the restriction that geswall gave me. I tried installing it w/ CIS and it froze FF on start. I was also thinking of using Sandboxie or even safeonline for the browser. I'll have to play around a little and see what works.
