    Threatfire proved too slow down my laptop far too much and and with MBAM Pro they did not play well together despite all the necessary exclusions. Also removed Trusteer Rapport - I still cannot fully trust them. Too bad.

    Now gone back to the excellent Prevx but now within the Webroot product Secureanywhere (hopefully) Essentials.

    Very fast and stable and low on resources. On default settings except alerts for any unknown outbound connections.

    This one could be a keeper.

    I don't care really as long as the software is good and compatible to my current used programs but when I used a backup program it was Macrium Reflect Free but that's some time ago and I would like to store a real backup onto my HDD cause Rollback is no real backup, although it's comfortable to roll back and forward :D

    Hmm...you could try to post in the backup sub-forum for suggestions and recommendations particular to your setup. I suggest the top three imaging apps - Image for Windows, Drive Snapshot and Macrium Reflect.

    New security baseline on my main Dell 1220 Vostro notebook:

    Netgear Router with default firewall setting plus open port for Skype

    Win 7-32 HP default firewall, Skype allowed in on forwarded port, controlled by application.

    OpenDNScrpyt

    Webroot SA Essentials 2012

    Hitman Pro

    GMER

    tdsskiller

    Secunia PSI

    Wonderfully fast, stable and enough security condoms to keep me fairly relaxed.

    Would it be a good idea to put Toolwiz TimeFreeze and MBAM pro together just as protection?

    Why what's wrong with you Secunia PSI? Don't like the new version? Anyways, I'll not try patchmypc. I don't use these kinds of software. I keep my software up-to-date myself.

    secunia even that it's very good
    but there are some program that it don't detect

    Sumo is better in the detection but Lack Realtime mode and auto update
    (i don't use auto update BTW)

    Filehippo is very very limited to what program it support and a very stupid GUI ( it will take you to and HTML page )
