[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 823865, post: 854741"] You miss why a reacted, it is the way you were saying than upgrading because of security concerns was exaggerated, and sadly it is not, i would like it was exaggerated and Win7 was safer but it is not. That was a taunt to you, didn't believe you took it so seriously... Which is irrelevant in the discussion, we are talking about security not installation or other issues. I asked you what is your use of NVT ERP on top a full suite (especially KIS which covers almost every attack vectors)? you didn't answered... To me seems you use it "in case" KIS get bypassed, so basically it is a lack of trust to me. correct me if i'm wrong. So dont start a thread stating upgrading Win10 for security concerns is exaggerated and a fanfare. It is not, thanks to confirm it. Remember, this forum is popular with beginners who have no clues of how to tweak or use sophisticated security solutions, so upgrading to Win10 is a huge security improvement for them. Until Win10, i used to get regular calls from friends/customers for infected (Win7) computers , since Win10, i almost none...that is real experience and validate the efficiency of Win10 over Win7. So no, not an exaggeration. [B][/B] Doesnt matter what Win7 build you use, you will not get vulnerability patches against future exploits. That is the whole point about security, you start with the safest foundation possible and then fill the possible hole with security tools if necessary. sadly with Win7 you start with a unsafe base that will remain this way since you won't get fixes. A security forum is about sharing knowledge and correcting erroneous ideas, especially with beginners. Not only to show off our formidable skills. i rather use Win10 built-in Security than Comodo crap... you still don't get why i reacted, not about Win7 being safe with tons of 3rd party security tools, but your statement that upgrading to win10 for security is exaggerated. I'm well known here for my straightforward (and often considered "rude" tone) even as a mod here. It was and always will be this way. Anyway, i got your point, you got mine. no need further explanations. [/QUOTE]
