Solid configuration, you can add Toolwiz Time Freeze as it can return any undo changes during experimentation under of isolate environment. :)

This needs clarifying. You recommend WOT, and not by the community. Thanks :D

Good config, I'm not fond of Co-Mo-Do software myself.

Too many on-demand scanners, but if CIS and MBAM don't provide adequate protection then maybe you're using the wrong security.

Hello earth! why don't you like comodo software??? and about the quantity of on demand scanners : better be safe than sorry is my opinion :)....but to each his own!! what security setup do you use??

Nice set up Barry :)
Suggest maybe ditching Ghostery and using ABP to it's full potential with tracking and privacy filtersets.
Some discussion HERE on the merits for using or not using Ghostery.

Over-rated. Buggy. Bundled with junk.

Better safe than sorry - I still don't understand this. Are you click-happy, keygens or cracks for paid software, opening unknown PDF/DOC files, D-B-D from exploited software and knowing that CIS cannot protect you against this?

Solid config , however I would remove MBAM Pro from your real-time protection , as I fail to see how it can improve your real-time protection as long as you've pretty much locked down your system with CIS....
Did you experience any problems while running CIS with MBAM Pro?

@ jack I never had any any problems with running CIS and MBAM together.... :)

@ earth : I am not click happy , and I certainly do not use cracks or keygens.....I am terrified about getting myself infected with a ransome trojan , and that is the main reason I run mbam & cis together , and occasionally run those on demand scanners I have , and I know that cis is weak against exploits and not the best in cleaning malware infections.....

@ james thanks for the link bro :)

Earth i too have used CIS. Its only downfall is no webscanner. Cis suite is pretty good. Barry why dont you try BufferZone. It is better than sandboxie and pretty efficient.

Otherwise you have rock solid config. I never do online scans as takes a lot of time for me. MY net is a bit slow so probably. Good config you are secure. Dont forget Commonsense 2012.

WALT even though comodo has a DNS it cannot be treated like a webscanner, specifically as resident webscanner. So i want take a DNS as a web scanner. Then why does norton even though having its own dns has a web scanner?
