Recommended to update to SP1 for Windows 7.

Bitdefender Total Security includes SafePay that allows a secure browser environment for online banking and shopping. For this reason, you could uninstall Zemana Anti-Logger. If you used ZAL for it's HIPS-like feature, Bitdefender has it's own IDS called Active Virus Control.
You may want to use another on-demand scanner, such as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Currently, I recommend using version 1.75, as their latest release has shown to be buggy.

System Restore may not work effectively with security products installed, for example, System Restore will fail with Avast installed. In Windows 7 you can create a System Image and Recovery Disk. Remember to keep local copies of your documents, photos and music.
A suggestion for IE11, you can use TPL (Tracking Prevention Lists), http://www.iegallery.com/en-gb/trackingprotectionlists or from http://fanboy.co.nz/ie.html . IE11 has an enhanced version of Protected Mode, called EPM for short, read more http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/dn265025(v=vs.85).aspx
To sum it up:
- Update to Service Pack 1
- Optionally replace Zemana Anti-Logger with Bitdefender SafePay
- Optionally install Malwarebytes as an on-demand scanner
- Create alternate methods for system and data recovery
- Add TPL to IE11
