RE: aaronpackers's config

Do you use any add-ons in Firefox and if yes, What are they? Which DNS server do you use?

You can add some on-demand scanners like SuperAntiSpyware

since your level of risk is LOW.
you can add WOT and adblock plus add-on for firefox.
or, VTzilla.

Oh yeah, I forgot to put that on there. I already have MyWot and Ad-Block. That's the only reason I don't use Chrome haha, cause it's Ad-Block is awful.

Well, main reason is that I make YouTube videos, and the clips I get from always has a 40 second long ad in front of it.... The Ad-Block on Chrome doesn't seem to get rid of it, so yeah, that's the main reason I use Firefox. I can't stand watching commercials about Auto Insurance everyday.

I've had no problem with AdBlock, but I still prefer the other ABP for Chrome.

Maybe you could try this one, Adblock Plus for Google Chrome (beta) and report back.

Cheers.

RE: aaronpackers's config

if you just use connection JUST for your computer, and NOT with other computers. even you not using 3rd firewall it's not problem. just use windows firewall it's okay,no problem.

you know why?
because, you know what you do with your computer. so, you can prevent with your common sense.
personally, I'm not using any 3rd firewall, just windows firewall (Using USB modem for my own connection and my own laptop)
thanks.
