Davhag's Config - Safe or Sorry

[davhag49]

I have so much on my computer, but it seems extra scanners will find things that others leave behind. I think I have overkill at times, but as my title says. Not sure If I am safe or will be sorry.

What was your last known malware infection ?
I suggest you to uninstall Advanced System Care, as you already have Glary's Utilities, you don't need two "TuneUp" softwares and at least with Glary you have to know what you're doing in order to use it. ASC is just a "shitware" if you ask me.
Also, you should get a back-up and recovery software solution just in case, you never know what can happen to your system.

If u want, u can try "bluehell firewall" instead of "adblock plus" its use less resources.

You should be a little less vulgar if you ask me. New users could get a bad image of this forum, in my opinion, you're a little rude.

I have tried that, but I think I had it with adblock plus. Need to do an overhaul on my Firefox.
Thanks for your advise.

Add Extension Web of Trust (WOT) or Traffic Light and use a backup program!
On-demand Scanners: you can also use Hitman Pro or Emsisoft Emergency Kit

I was gonna say that. Ah.
It seems you'll be fine with Comodo Firewall. Or you can download Tinywall.

I think there is one on SOS or is there a good free one to try before I buy that is not limited. Looking for one that is not too complicated. As for Advance I have often thought about pulling it off and putting my Tuneup 2012 back on or check out the new AVG when it comes out.

It's all good gentlemen, nothing can offend me. I have three daughters with three son-in-laws that has came to heads a few times. I think I have been called just about everything once in my life by someone. lol...

Tuneup and AVG's Tuneup both are useless. I recommend CCleaner.

Aura almost all time sounds rude. He's a cold man.

ccleaner+ ccenhancer and privazer for deep cleaning is the way to go

I have EEK I use sometiomes, great software, I love it. Actually I think it was the one that found the actual malware which was just a bad download. I have tried Hitman in a free version sorta. Not bad, just was not sure about it. I will check into WOT and traffic light though.

I tried the ccenhancer a few times but probably need to do more test with it. It deleted some things I wanted to keep. I think I also used privazer before but forgot all about it. Thanks for the reminder.

If u want a nice on demand scanner try http://www.herdprotect.com Its complelty free. but duo to the fact it has that much engines u need to know wich detections are false positive u would get some im sure.

I have for years never could get Comodo to my liking and some people swear by it. I have tried a few others, such as Private Firewall and mostly IS firewalls.

Hitman Pro provides enough false positives already.

Tinywall does not bugger you with pop-ups, you should try it.

herdprotect have devault settings "hide false positive detections" working quit nice.
