I have never been infected on this computer (been using it for 3 years) but I did get infected once on my previous computer (it was a keylogger), so I do have some sort of keylogophobia(?). anyways I'm currently looking for some ways to improve my setup. I don't really like the new MBAM UI so i'm probably getting emsisoft emergency kit.
My computer specs:

As you can see, my computer isn't powerful so make sure not to recommend something heavy.

Thanks in advance!

Good descent configuration,
>Well Utorrent is the best available out there, why don't u give a try.
>In ur real time protection webroot should work well, If u want to extend ur license u may access the webroot giveaway here.
>For an on demand scanner u may try Hit man Pro since u r not satisfied with MBAM UI.
>For system image backup, windows 7 inbuilt should work fine, try it , other software will do the same as win 7 Backup and recovery.
>For secure online transaction why don't u use Sandboxie, I have been using it from past 4 months without any obligations.

Very helpful, Thank you!
But I have a question. say my system is already infected with a keylogger, will running my browser virtualized with sandboxie prevent that keylogger from recording my keystrokes?

Obviously yes , why don't u visit sandboxie official site and checkout yourself in their forum. So if u are not sure about it run an computer scan with EEK followed by Hitman Pro/MBAM and then Use a program called AdwCleaner to remove malicious browser plugins and install a fresh sandboxie then try it yourself.
