WD is not perfect - it's a fact - but I can say the same about any other piece of software.
I have tried almost every AV / IS / anti-exe / HIPS / sandbox etc. available and I see no added value in running them on my system as I know exactly what I am doing.
Funny fact - on my wife's laptop with W7 only MSE is running and I scan her system with multiple scanners once a year only to find some cookies so if you ask me I'll say that any 3rd party is obsolete if you have a minimum common sense.
And if you're happy clicker, then there is no suite which can protect you.
Peace brothers!

A streamlined, lightweight but reliable configuration. I like it
Exact, most of the regular members here shouldn't even need any security apps; by now they should have enough knowledge to avoid any classic infections.
Now, having fun with security apps is another story

@pablozi Nice addition to your security with Norton Security Premium! I have been rolling with this software for a long time.
As a side note you can sometimes get Norton Security Premium between $27.99-$29.99 on sale between Amazon or Frys.com. This saves from having to pay $90.00 a year. Plus the licenses are good for upcoming years. When it goes on sale I usually buy a few "years" worth. For the pricing it is like a steal! ~$3.00 a license!
EDIT: Don't forget to use Norton Power Eraser that is included inside Norton. I'd also recommend adding ZAM to your security setup as it has a small MB footprint on the given computer.
