Looks good to me, maybe take a look at ZAM free as an on demand scanner it is very good ;)

Thanks for sharing. :)

I would like to keep this as free as humanly possible. Pretty comparable to Emsisoft? Also tried googling, maybe I haven't had enough chocolate covered coffee beans, do you have a link?

As always, appreciate your feedback. I now have one Australian that I like. The other was Steve Irwin but be wasn't the brightest.

Config looks good! Thanks for sharing it :)
Since you already have EIS installed I would consider Zemana Antimalware as another on demand scanner.
Zemana Antimalware without real time protection is free and probably one of the best out there.

Hi @JHomes. I'm a little confused as to what real-time protection you have. Your profile says AVG AV, but your config says Emsisoft Internet Security. I may be wrong but I was under the impression Emsisoft recommend using EIS without an additional AV.

Also, you say you use Windows firewall, so is EIS firewall disabled?

Hello @JHomes. I suggest you to enable SmartScreen. It is a very useful security feature that can help prevent users (especially less-experienced users) from running applications they shouldn’t run.

Thanks for sharing your config. :)
