My ways of staying safe while online...
I use the most secure browser which is Chrome. I always run my browsers in Sandboxie unless I am updating, changing settings or adding &/or removing an extension.

I am extremely careful no matter what site i'm on (I don't click anything and everything) I have a few different web filters (Eset being one of them) which add to my layer of security...most of the time I have my system partition in Shadow Mode so if anything bad happens all I have to do is reboot and malware is gone.

I run scans whenever I feel it's time (no set schedule), If I want to test a questionable file or just try a new piece of software I can either run it in the sandbox or use VMware for my testing.

All my programs and plugins are updated using filehippo updater or I manually search for an update.

If my computer starts acting weird or something bypasses ALL my security (which is highly unlikely) I have a couple backups on my external hdd so in less then 30 min I'm back in business.

That's about it for now unless I remember something in the future.
When in doubt don't click it or download it!

Be Safe
Happy Surfing

By the way, it's difficult to read your config without a space after the comma.

I have a free key...what do you mean it's hard to read?

[Earth]

What about memory usage?

[Overkill]

Spaces fixed

[Earth]

That's much better to read, but don't mind me.

Would you recommend it?

[Overkill]

Yes! It does a great job and you don't even notice it on your system
