    Post you computer program/ firewall set up!!


    Computer?
    Desk top or labtop
    Anti Virus
    anti malware
    network tools
    hard drive
    memory
    registry cleaners
    windows ver
    tweakers


    anything I missed? your basic set up that runs all the time and how it works for you.

    Avast with security essentials. Anti Malware (I run once in awhile) labtop btw. windows 7 with basic windows firewall.

    Toshiba labtop.
    Its slow multitasking but over all good computer feels secure.

    Win 7 64
    SUA
    Chrome
    Sandboxie
    Winpatrol
    Private firewall at default
    Computer seems fast enough for me for a 2yr old Toshiba 505. However my only concern would be for a possible conflict down the road between Sandboxie (experimental 64 mode) and a Windows update, or Private firewall and Winpatrol.

    Win 7 x64 SP1 updated and fully patched
    Eset AV + Webroot SecureAnywhere + Sandboxie (experimental protection)
    Look'n'Stop Firewall
    TuneUp Utilities + CCleaner


    Pretty fast and light. Still can do anything i want without feeling a lag.

    No program is 100% at virus/malware prevention.
    Consider making backup images of the OS and backups of data files.
    Keep the backup HD offline when not making backups.
    If anything happens to the HD, OS, data, etc., it is much more likely you can recover.
    Backups work well for me, and i think of this as another protection layer.

    SF has many tutorials about backups.
