Actually i am testing Norton DNS too. I have doubts abaut whats better.

OpenDNS has a faster ping and faster domain resolution as norton dns.

I have two antivirus, but i use some days one real protection and other days another protection.

Do you use both FProt and Avira in realtime? If so how's FProt and is it designed to be run alongside another AV?
BTW your config is good and may I suggest you add WOT and Lastpass extensions to Firefox.

No, i only use one at time. One as real time and other as on demand scan only.

Now i am using F-Prot as real time.

I'm not sure if this will be ok but F-Prot does become below mediocre and known for FP sensitivity.

Its development were acquired by Commtouch (Authentium).

Or you may try Coranti for multiple AV engines that F-prot is included.

F-Prot is an old antivirus i have been using it from abaut 1991. There are better options like Avira, F-Secure, Kaspersky, GData.... but F-Prot works ok on my low risk environment. I like F-Prot. :)

Commtouh adquired F-Prot last year and will be new version this year.
