ok i saw an issue:

Norton 360 comes with a firewall, so why Comodo Firewall, it will creates conflicts; and even if Norton FW is disabled the drivers are stiull there and will hamper the system.

Zemana AL is less performant on x64 system than x86 ones ,so it is not absolutely necessary.

Apart from what Umbra said, you could add MBAM to your setup. Also possibly add the following addons to Waterfox/Chrome, HTTPS Everywhere, Lastpass and No Script. :)

Apart from that, looking good.

I think Norton 360 with comodo firewall is not fit even if you tweak it.
Try to get either norton 360 or nav with cfw

You don't need Mbam Pro as it will only eat resource
Turn off real time and use only on demand

the problem is not you can tweak Norton or not to be compatible, the fact is that the 2 firewall's drivers installed on the same machine may create issues and even mess up your system.

you don't see "yet" any visible issues but it may already happened on the background.

Downgrade to Norton AV, if you plan to continue using Comodo Firewall.

Suggestions:
- HTTPs Everywhere for your web browsers.

With Sandboxie, I don't think MBAM Pro is needed alongside Norton.

I Have Updated My Config how does it look now ? : )

Do you need all 3 RT solutions? Either Norton + WSA or avast! + WSA would be enough:)

I agree.

Real-time Protection: Norton 360 , Avast Free and Webroot Secure Anywhere complete 2013

To each their own, but how are there no conflicts. Do I see three realtime AV's there?

Norton and Avast? Never seen that before. :rolleyes: I don't think either are companion antiviruses, but let's find out to see it it's a recipe for disaster.

I think I should rephrase, Sandboxie + Norton = Sufficient. ;)

Biozfear might have something to say about it. I would not put it past him to temporarily experiment with 4 realtime AV's running simultaneously. LOL
