Hi Rengar,
The default settings are all ready quite good. (I asume you are using the premium version) But quickly the setting to change for maximum security:
Tab: Application
- User acces: set a password to prevent people 'borrowing' your PC from changing settings
- Appliation updates: Make sure both are on
Tab: protection
- Realtime Protection: Advanced Settings: Users are advised to stay away from those (so I do), be careful if you decide to experiment here.
- Protected applications: set the applications to be monitored. You can add programs not in the list yourself. Add whatever program you feel is at risk for exploitation
- Scan options: enable all
- Potential Threat protection: I've set both to 'always detect'
- Updates: Check for updates every minute if you feel like it (I have every half hour)
- Startup options: Enable self protection module
- Startup options: enable self-protection module early start
Tab Scan Shedule:
- Let MB scan for infection as often as you feel like. (I do once a day)
The other tabs don't really contain hardening settings. I advise reading the manual linked to by Spawn if you have the time.
