Advanced Plus Security DJ Panda's Security Config 2019

[DJ Panda]

Here is my Config for 2019 nothing really changed since my 2018 since I updated it right before the switch. Any feedback is appreciated!

Nice!

Why Emsisoft Emergency Kit . if you already have Emsisoft Anti-Malware . It's more of the same. The rest is very good.
Thanks for sharing.

A PassWord Manager and VPN Service (Web Privacy) would be welcome to cover all the areas, thanks for sharing

Good config.

Removed Emsisoft Emergency Kit - Was using it for awhile because I was lazy of switching back to Emsisoft after format awhile back. Any suggestions on password manager? I'm interested in a VPN but I'm more on the side of frugal spending.

Password manager : bitwarden
VPN : mullvad VPN, 5$ a month, high privacy, anonymous account/payment. No fancy BS features.

I've full blown switched to Firefox and DuckDuckGo. I'm not sure what system cleaner I should use because I care a bit about my privacy and CCleaner I've heard might be compromised with Avast..?

BleachBit. It's open source and it will clean FF.

I have looked at BleachBit too. No more Ccleaner to me. Avast is too invasive.

@DJ Panda, good config. Thanks for sharing it.

Added Bleachbit instead of CCleaner. Using Bitwarden as password manager.

Nice setup BTW.

Thanks for the suggestions! Would anyone reccomend a music/movie player or is Microsoft's standard apps decent enough? I turned off most of the privacy settings in Windows but not entirely convinced.

My advice:

• Add Tinywall or MWFC as a compliment for the native Windows Firewall

Nothing else to add, thanks for sharing.

Did some changes past couple of months. Pretty much solo use Firefox for privacy. Emsisoft expired so I went back to Windows Defender. Thinking of getting NordVPN maybe. Any feedback is appreciated.

Probably not the best movement: Discuss - NordVPN, TorGuard and VikingVPN were compromised

Forum advanced users with VPN experience recommend iVPN or MullVad...
