Avast Premier(hardened mode)+Voodoo-Shield Premium & Heimdal(Thor) Premium.
I think this would be overkill :unsure::unsure: also Heimdal Thor Premium comes with its own integrated antivirus...

For "Virus and Malware Removal Tools", delete Avast Premier there, since it is Your real-time protection, here You may add ZAM Free, HitMan Pro Free.

Please kindly reflect Your changes editing Your config, and announcing them here, hanks for sharing :giggle:

To Harlan4096: yes it is the same system.
To Brie: Bitdefender was up for renowal & I have had Avast Premier before years ago, & I like to remember it as a good year or two+I think you have more options with Avast.
I want to answer Harlan4096 next post: it is Heimdal the malware program not full AV, perhaps I have not written it right.
Thanks.:)

Hello Harlan4096 ,thanks for clearing that up, it is not the premium/AV that I have it is Thor Foresight, and then again I am not sure, I purchased the software a long time ago, but renewed it recently, so it must be Foresight because I remember contstandly closing advertise windows for heimdal full AV.:)

To be honest, money better spent elsewhere.
  1. Avast Premier ($70)
  2. Avast SecureLine VPN ($80)
  3. Avast Cleanup Premium ($50)
So you've spent (RRP) $200 on Avast software?

Also mentioned that you only use WiseCare 365 Pro, so you've bought software you won't even use?

Hello, when you put it like that then perhaps it is not the most clever investment.:cry:
