[QUOTE="always_forever, post: 949721, member: 92363"] Now we're getting somewhere! I have to use Chrome for my work so I'm stuck with it. I try to keep extensions to a minimum, installed uBlock Origin, and disabled third-party cookies. Not sure what else I can do to further secure the browser. Isn't Defender Windows firewall? I thought it was pretty standard to use AV in addition to that? Defender is active along with KSC free and MWB Premium with real-time protection turned off. I didn't know Hard_Configurator was even a thing before posting on this site! I thought it would be overwhelming but, as suggested in one of the threads here, I just used the recommended settings and also activated FireWall Hardening. ConfigureDefender is grayed out and not clickable but thinking that's because I run KSC...not sure if that's a correct assumption. I have to say that it's thanks to you and some other helpful members here that I've even been able to move forward with all this. I don't want to be paranoid (which keeps getting mentioned) but it's hard not to be when you know that you don't know what you don't know ;] [/QUOTE]
