[QUOTE="ErzCrz, post: 838652, member: 81799"] I've been an avid Comodo user because of it's default-deny and sandboxing for many years but recently went back to Windows Defender. I've far to often fallen for claims by the likes of 3rd party AVs and had the likes of McAfee on my system for a your but I believe in the OS ability to protect itself. A lot of the built in protection is beyond my knowledge which is why I find [USER=32260]@Andy Ful[/USER] 's H_C so valuable and harnesses the OS built-in protection without most of the technical knowledge. Comodo is still free (website being updated at the moment) but I spent so much time tweaking bits, remembering to deselect Yahoo and DNS and other included bits but a lot of the default type protection is built directly into windows, especially with the use of H_C. Anyway, Microsoft wouldn't benefit from having an insecure system. It's in it's best interest to have the best protection possible. I would love to see full ATP protection added to Windows Home and/or a default locked down system instead of default allow. Just my thoughts anyway. Not sure if much of it makes sense, been a long day, but you'll get the gist of what I'm trying to say I think. Erz [/QUOTE]
