Nice configuration. Simple and effective.

Simple, but i wouldn't depend on the built in security.

As @Malware1 said, all you need is the Common Sense 2014 IS and you should be good to go with any security solution.

I haven't seen any malware in years, so I don't feel like wasting system resources for additional software. Instead of this I am using Common Sense 2015 Beta

Nice configuration
and +1 for DuckDuckGo

I use Windows built in AV & firewall too, with respect to Fantasy, as all ducks are not always equal, @Umbra Polaris makes some good points for native security,

"If you just surf safely, don't use dodgy software, it is all you need; windows security is implemented at kernel level; one level deeper than any other security softs. Now I don't say that using other security softs is useless but unlike with Win7, you don't need them anymore.

I personally use some of them because I have to ( I closed-beta test them ) if not I would just stick with what Win8 offers.".

most of the people that bash Win8, never really used it or don't have any clue of what an OS should do. They just focus on their "used-to-use- useless-crap-fluffy-designed-toys".

Thanks for sharing your configuration!

Hello pablozi,

Just a suggestion... since you visit Phishing Sites.

Add an anti-executable for that occasional drive-by download: VooDooShield Frree or NoVirusThanks Exe Radar Pro - get free beta on MT subforum "Other Security Software."

Thanks for suggestion, but i've tried both of them and I really don't feel like I need them - Adguard is enough

You should choose 1 VPN and stick with it! Having 2 VPNs isn't really optimal since you pretty much can only use 1 at a time

Each VPN is for different purposes

 

[Atlas147]

Each VPN is for different purposes

But both are paid VPNs from what I can see, a little pricy no?

Not exactly
NordVPN i have for free and MyDevil is less than €20/year so good deal IMO
