what do you think i should change or add to my security

 

Remove all on-demand scanners except for Hitman Pro and Malwarebytes Antimalware. Have faith in them; they are far more than good enough when used combined.

 

I do agree, I did actually remove all on-demand scanners since I have faith in Windows 7, ESET and my behavior (safe surfing/avoid risk, always being up-to-date).

 

thanks

i was thinking about adding a layer of protection


Like

Shadow defender what do you think




i forgot to say i also replaced the task manager with " process explorer "

 

Shadow Defender is good if you're planning on testing sketchy software. Bare in mind that Shadow Defender is not actively devoloped anymore, although a recent version was released two weeks ago. The latest version is, by the looks of it, suspicious and may containt hidden malware. Be sure to download version .325.

 

Yeah, have faith in your own user behavior and that your layered setup will protect you. You don't need 5 layers if you're aware of what risks some sites expose you to. You're going to be fine with a decent AV, a good on-demand scanner, updated Windows components along with common sense.

Most people at Wilders have more security than a top-secret nuclear silo.

 

Yah, agreed. It would be interesting to know if those overdone layered setups we do see a lot in this thread actually ever caught or prevented some threat.
In fact my ESET hasn't taken action in the past two years. I would feel perfectly safe with the combination of Windows and my behavior. The only reason I do actually use it is because I like it and I want to support them.

 

i have some enemies

and i get in touch with alot of nasty stuff
i have it's not a choice

so for that i also use VMware for most dangrous stuff


i really need that kind of security

Immunet Protect 1.0.26
Comodo internet security w/o antivirus
PeerBlock

 

i wish i have this kind of security

but i'm on the path to it

 

Yeah its true

Ranget check my setup, I also have MSE 2.0 + COMODO firewall + several other things

 

LOL that is so true! Also update:

System:

Windows 7 Ultimate x32
AppLocker enabled - Only system folders and an installer folder allowed.

Browsers:

- Addons: NoScript, AdBlock Plus, Ghostery, CM, Request Policy, AmIAdmin
-Plugins: NONE
- Geswall Isolated
-EMET
- Download Folder: No execute permissions, Low Integrity, 1806 trick.

Chrome (latest version)

Untangle FW -Block all incoming (unless initiated from inside LAN), Content Filtering, Block Malware domains, block China and Gov. IPS, Scan incoming traffic for malware, IDS, DDOS protection.

I think that qualifies for being more secure than a top secret missile silo
