This year I'm going to give Trend Micro a chance, leave GDATA a little aside, the rest is almost the same thing I always use, I think that's it.

As far as I can see you don't use any browser extensions, only Operas built in adblocking. Maybe you could think about using NextDNS or Adguard DNS for some ad/tracking blocking beyone the built in one. Otherwise a really strong and simple config! (y)

Dude, I'm impressed with him, especially with the performance, you didn't feel it in the system, it fit very well in my machine, I was using the 6 month trial version posted here on the site, but I was forced to buy a subscription 1 year of them, protection does not have much to say, it is solid, but soon and if everything goes well I intend to play with him in the Hub (y)
