Which Windows Hardener do you use?

Looking for advice on XP Hardeners. If you use more than one, or "other" please give details. Thanks!

 

Currently Samurai, which combines hardening features with HIPS. I may wind up switching to SecureIt + HardenIt + Malware Defender, though, on the basis that masters of various trades are better than a jack of all of them.

 

I have enough experience to do it myself under registry, group and security policy. There is a lot of that can be tighten up. What you list looks good for those who don't know and to change settings in the registry.

 

I use the security templates with a few modifications from NIST and also currently looking the FDCC template/Group Policy settings they have.

 

I use WWDC.
Another similar program that I have used for years is XP AntiSpy.

 

HardenIt.

 

XP-Antispy

 

The ones in my Sig

 

I do not use system hardener.

 

Could we consider SRP (Software Restriction Policies) a system hardener?

 

None of the above.

 

One option not offered: none of these.

 

With XP none, with Vista UAC.

 

Me too.

 

None of above but have some experience in applying group policies and security templates to that effect. But I should probably study it more. Maybe one of the above could be an interim step or help me learn more.

 

I use xp-Antispy. Its latest version is 100% compatible with my Windows 7 Ultimate x86. PC Tools Registry Mechanic also tweaked my Windows Services and applied some performance registry tweaks as well.

 

I don't even know what they are.
I just learnt another thing

 

Wats that??

 

I voted other. I tweak the XP pro directly, so I know exactly what was done.

 

SRP has my vote. It's what I use on two XP machines.

 

Safe XP.
