Battle ESET + Comodo + Malwarebytes vs 2017

[sagsxww]

Hello there guys,

This is my first post so I am sorry if I am posting this in the wrong section. I am setting up a new machine in a week or so and from my little research it seems like my old "standard" is not considered as good nowadays. The new machine will be Win7 64bit just fyi.

What I used to install is ESET NOD32 Antivirus + Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (deprecated?) + Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit + Comodo Firewall + Sandboxie. From what I've seen/read around Eset is not considered that good nowadays (or at least doesn't get any love) and either is Malwarebytes (after version 3+). Should I go with a different setup?

I've read a lot of good comments about Emsisoft/Kaspersky/Bitdefender but I am kinda lost (there are also a ton more which I didn't mention). I think I need an Antivirus + Anti-Malware + Firewall (Anti-Exploit was a nice little tool).


Thanks for your time and help!


Fun fact: I was avoiding Kaspersky since I remember it being a damn heavy program (back in the days when it first came out).

I think the Eset + Comodo Firewall with CruelSister settings is enough.

Firstly, get things right.
Does ESET serves you well all the time? If yes why still say no good?.
If something works for you, just stick with it. Otherwise, change it.

Unless you wanna try something new then by all means go ahead. But no point changing it just because someone claim it's no good.

Kaspersky runs very light these days.But you may wish to trial it on your machine to see how it performs for you!

I am only thinking about changing because I am setting up a new PC Maybe I'm left behind etc.
I am not changing what I'm already using though. I don't see a need atm at least.
