This is the setup I've thrown onto my mother's computer. Considering that she can't really be trusted to make decisions and she won't like any security software breaking a program I've gone for the more traditional route of an antivirus.
Using MSE.
I've turned everything off in Comodo except for the sandboxing feature, which I have used to sandbox Java. Java on my own setup can be sandboxed as Restricted with no issues, however to be absolutely sure that she doesn't get a headache I've lowered it to Limited.
Updates are silent. UAC is on Max. Chrome updates automatically. Windows updates automatically.
She's been infected before on XP 32bit before so I consider her "high risk" and even though she's fairly good with computers she's still at a "low level" understanding of how infections can occur and therefor at "high risk" for infection (also taking into account her browsing habits.)
It's not the solution I'd want for myself but it's perfect for her.
