What is your security setup these days?

If i remember correctly it's not compatible with x64, so it's a not go for me, if not i would be using it surely

 

Windows XP SP3

Realtime:
Sandboxie( Forced browsers, messengers, removable drives)
Spyshelter Free
LnS firewall
Clearcloud DNSthumb: Newly added.. im liking it.. )

Ondemand:
Hitman Pro
MBAM

Software Updater:
SUMO

No Backup

 

But im using free version and the thing i dont like is , free version can only block! cannot terminate..

 

I'm back wilders! just re-posting my same old setup.
Been using this for several months.

Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit

OS Internals (no extra overhead or cost)

• Safe Admin Tweaks [MANUAL] (UAC Hardened, Autorun and Autoplay disabled.)
• Software Restriction Policy (Disallowed: Set as default)
• Windows FW setup 2-way [IN/OUTBOUND: Block] (Improved via Baseline Security Templates)

Realtime protection

• Comodo Time Machine BETA FREE (Password Authentication to start Windows and CTM GUI settings)
• GesWall FREE (Auto-isolate)
• Spyshelter FREE (Password Protected / Auto Allow - Medium Security Level)
  [*] Microsoft Security Essentials

Tool:

1. ProcessExplorer (replaced task manager)
2. Microsoft Security Compliance Manager 1.0 (for downloading Baseline Security Templates)
3. MS LocalGPO (for applying Baseline Security templates) :
   Baseline Security Template: (Merged IE8SSLFUser -> IE8SSLFComputer -> Win7SSLFUser -> Win7SSLFDesktop : Allow Legacy Apps to run, Allow Administrators Group to debug programs to fix compatibility with EMET)
4. EMET 2 (Maximum Security Setting)
5. CCleaner
6. On-demand AV will be added if I feel the need for it.

Setup:

1. Google Chrome (Browser) ( --safe-plugins | GesWall Isolated | Virtualized by OS | Low Integrity | click-to-play plugin )
   
2. Media Players (GesWall Isolated | Virtualized by OS | Low Integrity | EMET2)
   
3. All Download directories is in separate partition with low rights, 'Untrusted' by Geswall and have a deny ACL to prevent low rights processes executing in low rights container
   (downloaded low rights processes can't execute in medium / high rights directories)
   
4. Locked down IE8 through Group Policy and FW for on-line banking + EMET2
5. Norton DNS

 

I am in the exact same standing (about Malware Defender)!

 

Added Comodo time machine - just in case

 

yes very true it's not 64 ready yet so i must wait for now for testing malware defender in my 64 system

 

Where have you been?

 

konata was MIA for a few weeks. Must have had a nice vacation. :0

 

Giving NOD32 a spin; I haven't used it since version 3. Running nice and light so far, just as I remember it.

 

It won't feel different than version 3. The whole user experience is exactly the same. Also the GUI might have changed, but the layout is still the same.
Also it still is really light and scans fast, it is probably the lightest antivirus at Windows startup time. If you did like previous NOD versions you will also like version 4.2.

 

In the mood to change my setup. I am thinking I shall add Mamutu.

 

Giving spyshelter premium a try. Running all internet facing apps in restricted mode.

 

good choice man

 

Ditched Shadowdefender. The whole going out of shadow mode to update things wasn't working.
Added geswall. My old friend. Has never let me down.
Its working well with CIS 5. I might add Prevx SOL back on. Worried about those pesky keyloggers. I did notice that my browsers were more responsive w/o SOL running though. Hmmm.

 

Removed AVG IS after using for a long time. Installed Avast IS

 

I'm using this what I have in my signature
