    Hi adam993
    I'm getting ready to install Privatefirewall on one of my computers too!
    I took OA Free off of it a couple of days ago, and currently just have WinFW, SBIE and VIPRE on there. It sure makes for a snappy setup, I'll tell you that. But I want a better FW w/HIPS in place of WinFW, and Privatefirewall sure gets good reviews all around Wilders. Bellgamin is certainly a wellspring of info on PFW! :thumb:

    I tried something funny (because service of GeSWall uses near zero CPU and GUI does use 0.06% CPU) to decrease impact of third party security, see pic

    Anyone know of some Poc, so I can test intrusions from websites?

    Thanks Kees

    btservice (BeyondTrust Powerbroker service) and gswserv (geswall service) together use less than 0.01% CPU in total in two hours surfing and e-mailing :cool:

    yeah, easeus todo is free:thumb: it has more features than macrium free:shifty: and easeus provides great and awesome support unlike macrium:mad: (don't know if that has improved recently as I've not used it for some time now)
    It has not failed to restore any image, yet:D so I guess I like it:cool:

    My attempt to install java to a sandbox via Comodo failed =p I'm not sure why... perhaps it has a "detect installer" or something.

    Any advice?

    edit: Ah, found the likely culprit. Attempting to reinstall now with the installer detection disabled.
