Just removal tweaks,

Removed:
I0bit Malwarefighter Pro (lost all hopes for the product)
SQLite (No need for it anymore)
Advanced System Care (Dont really need it)

As for Qihoo, I think i'm keeping it. Very good product, I'm impressed a lot and its been light with no issues.
 
@3link9
What about Qihoo's firewall ,is it configurable like comodo or it is like install and forget and how about its update i mean how many times it updated in a day by default ?
I am not tried it yet thats why i am asking ?
Thanks :)

It doesn't use a firewall.

Thanks for asking though ;)

No, not at all.
I did however once had a big cpu spike when it was updating the BD engine.
But then again, I do have a Ancient CPU on this computer (Intel Pentium D 2.80 GHz)

So, it doesn't really causes too much cpu usage. Nice! Have you tried to pair it with a standalone firewall like Comodo or Online Armor?

I tried it with risings new firewall and it seemed to work fine but I just had a bad gut feeling using a rising product so... got rid of that the next day. Might pair it with Comodo or Zone Alarm and give it a go but I dont think i'll keep a firewall considering i try to save system resources.
 
Thanks a lot man! One more question, what's the usual ram usage of Qihoo in your pc?
 
usually runs about 34-62K as i'm typing this its at 83K but the BD engine is updating again but not feeling any slowdown at all which is unusal since i'm running firefox which takes about 312K so with 4GB of old RAM, i feel it but Qihoo hasn't slowed down a bit.
 
Alright Full Update:
Removed Qihoo and Added Norton Internet Security
Added EEK&CCE
Added Minor tools
Using IE10 as Main Browser
Turned on UAC set to Max.
Exposure to Malware Upgraded to High
Infection Rate upgraded to Medium.


Alright made a slightly big change here,
I'm going back to Norton as its my personal product of choice and will be using for a long time. VMWare is yelling at me to upgrade my CPU which in some time I will so I'm no longer using a VM to test malware until I get a better PC to handle it. However I will still do OD scans on my main computer which just incase I hit somthing, I set turned on UAC and set to max and keep any backups i need if something goes wrong.
I also decided to switch to IE10 as I found it to be the lightest of the 3 browsers and IE10 has been such an improvment from past versions, I feel just fine using it.
