Thanks for sharing your config! 
I've got two problems with it. First and most importantly, enable UAC. It adds a nice extra layer to your protection, with minimal annoyance. Here's a great article about its importance: http://www.7tutorials.com/uac-why-you-should-never-turn-it-off
Second, Spybot. It was the go-to second opinion scanner years ago, but it's getting obsolete and outdated and unable to keep up with current threats. Get Malwarebytes and/or HitmanPro instead.

Yeap, you should enable UAC. You might also wanna add HitmanPro and Emsisoft Emergency Kit. And also, Norton DNS.
And also, Norton DNS. Well, I am accustomed on using UAV disabled, but I will review it, thank you!
Actually, I already use AdBlock, but I have forgot to put it on the list. I will search for the others. Thanks!
I tought about updating my OS, but some softwares do not work properly there.

What kind of software, maybe we can suggest some alternatives.
They are some games that only depends of their own developers, unfortunately.

nice one, as said earlier, enable UAC.
Adblock is heavy; use Adguard, µblock or Adblock edge instead

Definitely enable UAC.Very Nice config,thanks for sharing it
I really think I have a lot of defenders on my computer: Malwarebytes, avast! and Zemana Antilogger. Don't you guys think it's enough? I'm really reluctant about that, hehe! (I don't like those confirmation messages all the time!)
Just updating my configuration. Seems like my old thread has gone down for some reason.
Anyway, here it is.

I found your previous config thread and merged the new and old, just updated the custom fields with the new details.Just updating my configuration. Seems like my old thread has gone down for some reason.

Even though 90% of the time you'll never see it, what do think of Windows Smartscreen?

Any reason why you disabled both SmartScreen Filter and UAC? I suggest you to enable both. Thanks!
