[QUOTE="ErzCrz, post: 1071710, member: 81799"] I'm using MD with DefenderUI and CyberLock/Voodooshield ($30 for 1 year with discount for extra years). I run WIndowsFirewallControl which although has a little bit of a learning curvei, is quite good and just a front end for Windows Firewall making it more capable and it prompts for any new connection there isn't a rule for and you can be very specific with the rules including temporary blocking ones. MD with Hardening or the whitelisting approach of CL/VS fills in those signature and behaviour gaps in protection and a decent backup is an essential part to layered security but use what works for you :) [/QUOTE]
