I have not yet even read all your configuration in it's entirety, but think it looks great!:D Thanks for letting us partake.;)

Update: I liked your choice of extensions!
You might like an extension for advanced blocking that I am still getting the hang of..
  1. http switchboard https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/http-switchboard/mghdpehejfekicfjcdbfofhcmnjhgaag?hl=en-US
  2. ..or a simpler extension I've also used for blocking Java script, ScriptBlock https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/http-switchboard/mghdpehejfekicfjcdbfofhcmnjhgaag?hl=en-US
What are your impressions after installing ESET NOD 32 version 8?o_O :)

Thanks for sharing!:D

Note: I only using beta version of comodo for testing purpose its not recommendet to use it in host system, but I think this combo is great (great malware and pup detection + best firewall) both with very little system impact..
what do you think ?

You got me at "low system impact"!:D Comodo sandboxing is very appealing. The fact that it has often been referred to as an advanced protection, and is in Beta, would usually dissuade me, yet your accolades are very intriguing and present it quite convincingly enough to make me want to fire up the VM!!:p:cool:

while waiting other final software with win10 compatibility
I am truly fascinated by the positive impressions I have read about Windows 10, and look forward to yours.:)

If you are still a user of Google Chrome x64, you may consider giving another quality Chromium browser a spin,
which, in my personal experience, I've found noticeably more responsive on each of our our three: Windows 8.1, 7 SP 1, & linux lubuntu systems.:):)
Quote from their FAQ: "Slimjet doesn't collect any data associated with the user's identity."
..plus (similarly to LastPass) "All...quickfill form files...protected with your master password are encrypted using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard ) with key length of 256 bits."

By the way, your configuration continues to look very good!:D
