How many Real-time 3rd Party Security products do you use?
...and if you had to grade them,which would you be least willing to part with?

Most of us at MT use one or more Real-time 3rd Party Security Software products,such as...
Security Suite, Firewall, Antivirus, Anti-Malware, Anti-Exploit, Anti-EXE, Sandbox, HIPS, HIDS....

How many do you use?.and to Grade them,If you have 5 Real-time 3rd Party Security products then..
Number 5 would be the one that you would remove first should you have to,and...
Number 1 would be the one that you would be least willing to part with.

Please Note:
Software that is only "On Demand" such as "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free" does not count.
Browser Extensions do not count.
Software that detects threats,but does not block them can be included.

These two are my mainstays:
1> VoodooShield
2> WinAntiRansom (Will be replaced with ReHIPS in the future)

If were including the software were testing on production machines
then ZAL would be my 3rd

I have decided to give Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit a go with my main AV. I really don't know if it actually increases security, anybody got experiences with it?
It is useful in a good security plan but of course, it does not do miracles.
Malwarebytes AntiExploit tries to intercept exploit code before it executes and monitors the use of shellcode, the code that represents the payload that is the fundamental part of a procedure for the exploitation of a software vulnerability.

it helps a little, and doesn't hurt any.
if you want something similar but stronger, try HitmanPro.Alert.
both products fall into the "anti-exploit" category.

right now:
1 Qihoo 360
2 HitmanPro.Alert
3 Voodooshield beta pro

VS is probably the strongest player here, but it also produces those hard-to-decide alerts, so I put it last.
WD would really be enough for me. the rest is just for fun and paranoia.
