True, though I use them both. Reason behind this is Emsisoft's outstanding behavior blocker and ESET's signatures/web blocking. I'm thinking of disabling Emsisoft's file guard and surf protection so they don't cause conflicts with ESET + they are already covered by it and keep its behavior blocker only active.

Updated.

- Added Google Chrome as second browser.

- Got an external HDD for backup.

- Added Zemana Antimalware for on demand scanning.

- Removed MBAM from real time protection.

- Added WOT.

- Had a real struggle between using either ESS 8 or EIS. I love EIS's zero day protection thanks to its behavior blocker but ESS 8's web filtering and signatures (firewall too) are amazing. Therefore I have decided to use both by disabling File Guard/Surf Protection/Firewall from EIS and keep only the Behavior Blocker enabled, rest on ESS 8 are enabled. Results: No system slowdown, EIS only uses around 5 MB of RAM (http://gyazo.com/19596a14b2e0bc06eab8c32234e56874).
