Hi AMD1

A very good, powerful combination: which combines excellent protection from Kaspersky, with the addition of Malwarebytes Pro. I'm currently using Kaspersky 2015, how are you finding Kaspersky Pure 3?

Tony :)

Andy i hope that on malwarebytes you have real time protection off because if it's on maybe you will have compatibility issues.
my opinion is to add a second browser,to use lastpass for keeping safe your passwords and to update secunia to version 3.
that is my suggestions. i think you have a very solid config and i like it.
thanks for sharing;):)

I asked on the Kaspersky forum about running Kaspersky with Malwarebytes Pro and they said it was fine to do so

I havent had any issues with it. I dont use the password manager as I think Roboform is better and I dont use the parental control, encryption or back up. I use Backup4all (paid version) which is simply compressed zipped folders and Windows backup, both targeted at my external HD

It may be just me but I havent experienced any issues running both together real time.

I think Lastpass stored logins etc online and I dont like the idea of that myself.

Secunia version 3 always seemed buggy on my system so i reverted back to V2

I had MBAM Pro before I got Pure and didnt even think bout compatibility issues - it seems to work ok without any noticable slowdown so it seems its OK

I use KIS 2015 on all my Windows 8.1 installations.Kaspersky does a great job!! However I also like ESET Smart Security and just switched back to KIS a month or so ago
I too have MBAM Premium but I only use it as an on demand scanner.If you have no compatibility issues and it works for you I see no problem.
I would add at least one more on demand scanner such as Emsisoft Emergency Kit and or Hitman Pro
I also like uBlock extension in Chrome.
Very solid config with SBIE!! Thanks for sharing your config with us :)

No worries and thanks for taking the time to post a response.

I might have a go with Hitman Pro and see how it performs.

Interestingly i have not had any comments regarding VPN's which i dont have on my machine at the moment and unsure if needed ???
