finisnothere's Security Config

@McLovin also uses Trend Micro. @finisnothere Do you use Trend's Password Manager, or other TM services? What other Free Antiviruses have you used on Mavericks, any recommendations for Mac users?

I don't use Trends Password Manager, because everytime I try to retrieve them, it crashes. I have used three antiviruses on Mavericks,
iAntivirus, Avast for Mac and Sophos.

iAntivirus was Atrocious
Sophos was good, but had many false positives
Avast was the best I used, but requires more CPU

I would recommend Avast for Mac users, but it crashes my hackintosh so I use Sophos (don't be put off, I think it's an issue with my Hackintosh CPU)

In other Programs for Mac, I recommend Xamarin Studio for C# Coding, Cyberduck for SSH/FTP Connections and Plex as a Media Centre.
In programs for Hackintosh, I recommend iMessageFix, Chameleon SSD Optimiser, myHack and Kext Wizard
 
Good Config, 1 question, how good Trend Micro Titanium Maximum Security ?

It has never failed me in Web Protection, it blocks almost every malware site you throw at it, with the real time, the same results, it blocked 50/50 NEW sites from MDL and malc0de, and I am yet to test it with a pack of malware, but it has very good protection, but it is quite heavy on the CPU, but i'd recommend it!

Trend Micro? Good choice! What I like with Trend Micro is its Web Blocking feature. Great config btw.
 
Nice config, thanks for sharing! :)
How do you make a Backup and Recovery to External HDD? What software do you use?
 
Good configuration. I see that u have are using an external SSD that is loaded with a Hackintosh (Mavericks 10.9.4). What is the capacity of the SSD? Do u just use Mavericks to do some digital work or is it just an experiment. How have u configured ur Mac OS to your SSD , do u have any tutorial link for it ?

I use it for video editing for my classes, and the SSD is only 120gb (Samsung 840 EVO), and I have configured it for mac by using the Chameleon SSD Optimiser to enable TRIM support, but otherwise you can use multibeast to enable trim, no tutorial, sorry :D
