Andrew999 Security Config

is this good?

 

[frogboy]

Looks good to me also.

Thanks for sharing.

Your configuration seems to be good, but you should stick to Windows 7 if you want to use it for gaming.

• Why are you using AdBlock Edge? It was discontinued in favor of uBlock.
• Why do you use Driver Booster? There's a chance that it could install the wrong driver, I'd abandon it so that you can avoid troubles in the future.

I personally don't think that you would need Comodo Firewall, It's up to you to decide for yourself.

Good config, thanks for sharing it
only a thing: I suggest you to install MPC-HC instead of VLC because it is faster and better

Gaming? Go to the well developed OS (Windows 7), its too far to compare yet since WIndows 10 isn't yet matured even RTM should provide lesser bugs.

Its your choice, Comodo Firewall is a total maintenance software which all you need is an install and forget AV combination. However better stick to EIS for pretty tune up configuration.

ESET Smart Security has a firewall so I don't see the need to uninstall ESS then instal EAV & Comodo Firewall
+1 for following @Fedora suggestions
I would use MBAM Premium as an on demand scanner only
Consider adding a second browser
Agree with @Umbra & @jamescv7 on the poll.I voted Windows 7 for gaming & too early to cast a vote for Windows 10

W 8.1 is a little better in performance, W 7 is good too.

 

[Sloth]

Windows 10 is the future for gaming because Win10 is the only OS that will support DX-12 & above.

Only by you, Umbra.

I do not approve of this Config Too many real-time protection modules running at once. OP must be paranoid from Government surveillance software, or hiding something on their PC.

I cannot think of any logical reason to have all these software installed.

• ESET Smart Security
• Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium
• SecureAPlus
• Xvirus Personal Guard and Webguard

Modern web browsers come with Phishing and Download protection, if not disabled.

May as well install Comodo Internet Security to beef up the security.

@Andrew999 Remember to keep this thread updated, without creating new Config topics. Thanks.

As a gamer, I have to say that between 8/8.1 and 10 there is not much difference in gaming, unless you refer to DX support.

The difference itself is so minimal that average user and gamer will not even notice.

 

[Andrew999]

- Removed NANO Antivirus
+Added Zillya Antivirus Free 2 Beta
+Added Kompas Av for Ondamand Scanners

No login password and testing malwares without VM on a main machine isn't safe.
