@purshupro Why did you suddenly remove AdGuard? :)
I was feeling some disturbance in my PC Performance, so i taught i would be because of that program and indeed i was right it was because of McSheild and Adguard. Since i'm now using opera now i have added adguard extension. I'm loving the way my browser acts. and as u said Opera is really Awesome.

I really like it, that's why it's so hard to let it go. lol. BTW It only uses 20MB+ of memory. What about yours?

I guess it was between 30-40 mb. And Start Up manager stated that startup impact was HIGH. So confirmed and trashed.

Sure. Right click on the start button and select "run" then type in "services.msc". Find "AdGuard Service" then hit right click and select "Properties". You'll see "Startup type", select "Automatic Delayed". Hit "Apply" then "OK".

Converted MalwareBytes Antimalware to Premium. Now I have Two Real time Protection Enabled, Eset and MBAM.
I think I must set some exclusions, I don't have idea about it, so will be thank full if any one says how to do it.

In ESET advance settings, check under protocol filtering -> SSl -> tick on " do not scan SSL protocol " then go to certificate -> untick " add the root certificate to unknown browsers " & u done. I don't know when u enable it :rolleyes: U r the one who said u watched tutorial of ESET maximum settings from this forum & u tweaked it, so that time i guess u enabled it :)
I, if viewed in a scientific manner, would see this absurd. Why would you think HTTPS is secure? The bad guys do know how to install a SSL certificate. In fact, that is what most banking scans do.

Much higher memory consumption rather than any other browser. Was lagging speed of browsing. Dont like its UI and its services keeps running which is not required. x64 bit version installed in x32 bit directory[I could not identify what was the problem with that].

I've removed Chrome from our Windows 7 & 8.1 systems (XP) too, though my reason was non-compatibility with Sandboxie. I only use Chrome in linux now. I've grown too dependent upon Google Talk,:confused: ..or perhaps not enough upon cellular.:oops: ;)
Like you, purshupro, I've rediscovered Firefox/Firefox-like portable browsers and even *cough, cough* the ever present I.E.:rolleyes::p with which I've tried the Universal Binary app. version of LastPass which disappears when Shadow mode is exited.

How about using NoScript to block java script vulnerabilities? It's one of my core extensions.:) I'm trying to remember :confused: whether you have...
