Excellent job. How are you liking ESET and Emsisoft??

I really like Emsisoft Internet Security Pack on Windows 7.Updates are less frequent than older versions and hardly notice it on my system.It provides excellent protection.I don't mind that it's a little chatty,I prefer that,keeps me on my toes.

I have always liked ESET especially when Windows 8 was released.I found it to be one of the few Security Suites that ran without bugs.Version 7 is even better than version 6 and runs awesome on Windows 8.1 very light and absolutely no problems.

Both are great programs and this setup seems to work well for me right now.On another old HP laptop I use ESS 7 because due to the fact it is older and the specs ESS 7,because it runs so light,is a better option than EIS.I have used EIS on this laptop and it does work well however ESS 7 seems to be a better fit

Using Paragon Hard Disk Manager Pro

Firefox is default browser & Chrome is a second browser

Using KIS 2016 right now on Windows 7 Installations due to EIS conflict with VB
ESS 8 on Windows 10 until EIS 10 compatibility issues are fixed

@exterminator20

Emsi states EIS10 issue with MS network drivers has been fixed. However, it looks as if you desire to stick with version 9...
Sorry my bad I am using EIS 10 :oops: but if they have fixed it I will definitely install it and give it a go.Thanks :)
