some reason to use ESS version "6"?

I recommend enable UAC to default settings, add Ccleaner or Privazer.
and some scanner like Malwarebytes or Hitman pro...
nice config bro;)
 
Upgrade to Windows 7 SP1 - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/service-packs-download#sptabs=win7
Enable User Access Control (default) - http://malwaretips.com/threads/why-you-should-not-turn-off-uac.23351/

Upgrade ESET Smart Security to the latest version for better security and other improvements - http://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN2476
Use an on-demand scanner such as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free - https://www.malwarebytes.org/antimalware/

Check-list:
  • Google Chrome and Firefox are up to date.
  • Use IE latest version for Windows 7.
  • Windows Updates is switched on.

SP1 ?
Enable UAC to at least default setting
ESS 6 ??? I would update it to Version 8.0.304 If you can't for whatever reason then you would be better served by going with a current realtime AV that is free & Windows Firewall
Consider adding a couple or so on demand scanners that have been suggested already
CCleaner or Privazer if not already installed

i dont feel coomfortable using UAC, because its always ask notify.
i had revo :D, so i think i don't need ccleaner
i had install hitman pro 2 and cryptoprevent, i install malwarebytes when i think there is malware on my computer, and then uninstalled it again



I would suggest enable UAC and a password manager such as LastPass. Thanks for sharing. ;)

thanks for advice, maybe i will use LastPass

ESS 6 :eek: Let me predict, it is a pacthed version of it. This is why you are still using it. :confused:

well maybe so ;)

Service Pack 1 included?

Well nice catch from @yigido, why not using the latest version of ESET @donbawon?

yup its w7 sp1
ok i will try to update the latest :D

Install more scanners like a Zemana AntiMalware,HerdProtect and Malwarebytes. For more safe install to chrome/firefox HTTPS everywhere

thanks for advice

Firstly, always try to use the latest OS with latest updates.

Although I usually go with a mix of paid software and free ones.

For Free software
I suggest using a good anti virus like Avira / Comodo instead.
Comodo comes with an inbuilt firewall and is comparatively lighter on memory than Avast.
Also, I suggest turning on BitLocker encryption for additional benefits.
And using Keyscrambler for safety when typing passwords in browsers like Firefox/Chrome/IE :)

For Paid software
I suggest going for Emsisoft / GData / Bitdefender / Malwarebytes. You can try using them through giveaways as well.
I also suggest investing in Keyscrambler & cFosSpeed as I have personally very good experiences with these paid ones.

Addons
Recommend using AdBlock Plus and NoScript in both Firefox and Chrome.
Recommend removing greasemonkey as it potentially poses a security threat through scripting support.
