novocaine's configuration

[novocaine]

this is my configuration, please give me some advise

 

[frogboy]

I would like to suggest a backup solution such as Macrium Reflect or Aomei Backupper, both have a free and reliable version.

 

[Rengar]

HTTPS Everywhere to Browser
Zemana Antimalware and MalwareBytes to on demand
Backups as @frogboy said
Thanks for sharing your config.

Besides others suggestions about backups and on demand scanners, I would like to recommend you to ditch Comodo Internet Security and use Comodo Firewall+Windows Defender.
Comodo signatures are worse than Microsoft's and Defender is lighter.

Why comodo is?

 

[JM Safe]

I would add ZAM Free.

Add HTTPS Everywhere and follow suggestions about backups.

Thanks for sharing.

I agree.

Comodo signatures are worse than Microsoft's and Defender is lighter.

Also AFAIK Comodo firewall includes the same cloud signatures as the Comodo AV. So if Comodo AV in IS detect something then it will also be detected by Comodo firewall.
You could also try CruelSister's config for Comodo Firewall, then you won't need an AV (Or that's what i am told)

Why comodo is?

Because of the firewall?

CIS allow removal of malware unlike CFW

That is why I recommended Windows Defender and not Comodo Firewall solo.

There is no logic in this post....
AV from Comodo is bad but it can remove things. CF cant. He has CIS. Conclusion: Sandbox can block things,HIPS can also block things. Problem solved!
No need to ditch it, just to config it properly if you want.

PS: CF is better than Avira(imo)...

Why use heavy Comodo suite with poor signatures when you can just use the light firewall and windows default protection with light, decent detection?
It makes all sense not to use the full suite.

Just an opinion but Comodo AV module, even if not great, at least it may help to identify possible suspicious files detected by CF, helping the user.

Its not heavy unless you are using a calculator or a toaster for pc

I use a toaster with 4 years old, every little detail matters

 

[Exterminator]

Implement some type of system & data backup solution.
Consider an additional on demand scanner(s).

Thanks Everyone for your advice, I have just added HTTPS Everywhere, ZAM Free and Macrium Reflect, all set now. btw since yesterday there was huge news everywhere about this wannacry ransom in my country including in my office this morning, the IT department shut the network down.

Why comodo is?

because CIS = AV + HIPS + Isolation + Default-deny + Firewall + Free , I used to have CFW combine with free AV, but when malware detected it seems my system freezes for few minutes so I change to CIS which its AV module will not interfere with the other module, no freeze again although it always requires system restart on removal. I use CIS using Cruelsister's setting but with HIPS enabled. sorry for my English

CIS is good enough, Anyway the AV module is just for convenience.

anyway, I have ever heard that actually Zemana is the same as HitmanPro, is it true? like the csi forensic or cloud scanning from Kaspersky and Bitdefender Zemana has it too?

It is not the same engine, you'll notice that Zemana will often detect more threats specially worms.
