Ali's Security Configuration

[Alikhan]

Hi,

Above is the security configuration I use.

 

[Noxx]

Do consider bumping up UAC to default. Very important. If not, please consider an anti-executable. Thanks for sharing.

+1 on UAC.
if you want to get into an anti-executable, try VoodooShield

 

[Alikhan]

Well, I do find it annoying at times but I will give UAC another chance at default level now.

 

[DJ Panda]

Yes enable UAC also add a password manager if possible.

No, when the 30 day trial is over it goes to freeware mode and I just use it as an on demand scanner.

After the trial period you can either choose to buy a full version license or switch to the limited freeware mode. The freeware mode still allows you to scan and clean infections, but it doesn't provide any real-time protection to guard against new infections. It's useful as a second opinion scanner but you should NEVER rely on the freeware mode as long term protection for your PC.

My advice is that instead of using Emsisoft Anti-Malware try Emsisoft Emergency Kit.

EEK would be fine in place od EAM
Consider making system backups
Consider a Password manager
Thanks for sharing your config

Nice config, consider the other suggestions.
Thanks for sharing your config...!

Maybe add Zemana Anti-Malware for scanning. I see that you enabled UAC so your systems even more secure

 

[jamescv7]

Good configuration layer at all, you may add Zemana AM for your additional second opinion scanner.

 

[Alikhan]

Ok, I've removed Emsisoft Anti-Malware and just use the portable version of EEK now.

I've also installed Zemana Anti-Malware for on demand scans.
