Also ABP and AB dont block ads just hide them.

i googled it a bit, and found out that it may have some Fps and when people warned about it, the developers ask to remove the post... :dodgy:

so i will stick with ABP.

I remember when I didn't know what that meant, everyone was saying "There are to many FP's" and I had no idea :p

Switched to AdBlockPlus as well since in 2baksa.net Nimi Cleanser failed to block the ads there....

Also is NoScript necessary by your opinion? I block evne youtube videos before i trust the domain!
Do you suggest using it?

I used it before but removed it, it was annoying to always click the allow button...worse than a HIPS :D

it will work well, i tried before but i preferred EAM since it uses less RAM on idle, MBAM services (when Pro activated) uses around 30+mb WS. then you add 10+ when opening it

But it catches 93% of zero days threat right while EAM catches 95% correct?

Please create a post in the war room when you wish to have a comparison.

Also, while Wise Care 365 is final, ASC v6 is on beta, so it is not a fair comparison.

Nikos, remember to disable the Firewall in PCAV Pro if you still use CFW, and check that the Behavior Blocker and USB vaccine are enabled.

PCAV Pro's Firewall is not like Webroot one, it is not designed to run with another one (unless someone say im wrong), so make your choice.

The firewall is off by default but asks if you will like it on during installation. The behavioral settings are enabled by default and the auto vaccination feature is also off.

Ill use the both until a potential problem apperas.
Also want to check who will popup and alert me first for something malicious, my bet is on CFW.
If i was forced to use just one i would go of course with CFW & D+.

I wouldn't do that if I were you. Sure it is a community firewall but it is not like Webroot or Avast. :angel:

I have them both enabled nothing happened so far.
When something does happen there will be no warning because driver conflicts are almost unnoticeable... like ninjas. :cool: Why are you using both anyways?
