    I'm still waiting for Sandboxie & Hitman Pro to incorporate their technologies and create my dream solution: When you go to move files out of the sandbox it automatically connects to HMP's extensive cloud database and scans them first. It only does this for new or changed files, and otherwise no real-time scanning.

    If something like this existed I would totally use only it + Comodo FW/D+ and sleep like a baby at night. On Windows 7 I'd combine Windows FW with a light anti-ex instead of Comodo.

    Seriously... who wouldn't pay for a product like that?

    Added ScriptNo Honestly, I don't think Chrome needs it... at all... but I'm really curious and I figure I can speed up a few pages.

    It is so boring to have a safe and fast setup,

    So added Windows firewall notifier. It is an unsigned executable, but allowing it Admin rights with power broker, sort of overcomes the UAC setting to only elevate signed executables

    So safe-admin still :'(

    When someone still has a copy of the Zapass (DLL injection Proof of Concept), I would be very gracefull to receive a copy.

    Windows 7 x64 bit home premium

    a) Windows FW 2-way (Stem's setup)
    b) Using 1806-trick (Kees1958 - SafeAdmin )
    c) Using right click properties (security tab) to ADD a DENY "traverse folder/execute file" (Safe-Admin) for users for:
    - data partitions
    - download directory
    d) UAC set to
    - deny elevation of unsigned executables (SafeAdmin )
    - running Limited User with option to elevate providing credentials on secure desktop (this way I can run HitManPro as Admin)

    This is my SAFE-LUA ;) setup

    Using Chromium as browser, I have put the zip file in C:\Program Files (x86) with new tab feature (to show bookmarks),
    - McFee SiteAdvisor plug-in
    - Avast WebRep plug-in (just save the AswWebRepChrome.crx before uninstalling Avast, then drag it onto the plug-ins tab)

    HitManPro on demand

    I probably didn't give Panda a fair trial because of an unrelated problem, and it might be lighter and more effective at detection than MBAM which I had running real-time. So MBAM is set to on-demand and Panda is back on for another go.

    Remember to get the initial scan out of the way, otherwise it'll run in the background and make things seem more sluggish. This wasn't explicitly explained on installation, and I know others have thought Panda was heavy as a result.

    Optimised if I remember correctly. Perhaps someone could try, then watch the disk activity.

    Appreciate the tip, RJK3, did the scan. There seems to be less drag on the computer with Panda running than there was with MBAM, so that's good. If there aren't any problems, it'll probably stay on this time.
