You are bored with SS?
I'll try to answer your question using my words from SG (alreday tranlsated from Polish :))
"How I don't like perfect things...after some time such things start to be predictable to the pain ...and then they start to be boring. SpyShelter is a permanent component of my security setups and sometimes it seems to be such a "predictable". In result I start to dig inside my archives and search for some old things that once intrigued me, but for some reason I abandoned them in favor of other applications."

he is a time traveler !!! :p
Yesss :cool: According to words from Law#10
security is journey, not a destination

Still using Vista I see? Based on Vista alone this looks like a simple and secure setup. Thanks for posting.

lol the vintage but efficient ones. No Defensewall?
DW has only paid version but I haven't key to activate it...30-day trial could be fine but pop-up "buy pro" is annoing :)
GSW in free version has known limitations but in common cases (especialy when is connected with SD and LnS) can be quite good protection.

In some cases, a prefix "User-Dependent" should be added instead of "Risk"
Yes...I agree that it can be good prefix in some cases (y)

@ichito needs to migrate to Windows 10 64-bit.

Simple and secure.
In fact, it's quite the opposite.
  1. Vista
  2. 32-bit
As of April 11, 2017, Windows Vista customers are no longer receiving new security updates, non-security hotfixes, free or paid assisted support options, or online technical updates from Microsoft. Microsoft has provided support for Windows Vista for the past 10 years, but the time has come for us, along with our hardware and software partners, to invest our resources toward more recent technologies so that we can continue to deliver new experiences.

In some cases, a prefix "User-Dependent" should be added instead of "Risk"

So...I should only say "sorry"...my setup will be perhaps allways "risky" doue to I'm rather person who like to have own opinion ;) Additionaly I prefer configs that based on local rules and restrictions and not on signatures/monitoring from "deep space" of developers. It means that probably nobody and never will find in my mashine (I like old systems :cool:) "full-metal-tank-suite" with tons of tools "anti-A, anti-B, anti-C, etc." that could stick more to some criterias.
Have a nice day :coffee:;)
