I haven't been infected for around 2 years now so i believe i don't need heavy security solutions installed on my computer, i'm trying to make my computer as light as possible, I'm currently looking for free On-demand scanners and a virtualization software. well and probably any light apps that won't affect the usability of my computer.

:confused: I advise to use MBAM and HitmanPro for preventive inspections.
Backup and Restore:N/A
Badly.
At least you can use the built-in windows backup tool.
Or you can use other programs(Acronis,Paragon, etc..)

Oh I totally forgot that I use a cloud based storage for backing up my files, namely Google drive. or does that backup and restore mean restoring system files incase of infection?
But isn't hitman pro a paid program? I don't really have a credit card for online transactions sooo :/

I'm now confused..Should I download EEK or MBAM?

Decided with:
On-demand scanner: Emsisoft emergency kit
Backup and recovery: Windows default backup&restore
Google chrome extensions: added https everywhere
