I installed Spybot Anti-Beacon this afternoon, and the options that are activated by default can be seen in the attached picture.

Now my question is ... are the default settings enough for Windows 8.1 or should I activate everything. Yeah it is most likely a personal opinion, but I am curious. :)

I have not clicked yet on the Immunize button. I wanted to ask first if it was worth activating the other 3 options shown in the screenshot.

So I clicked on Immunize, and the first tab now shows as seen in the attachment. Would it be wise / needed to apply the other 3 that are not applied? ( As seen in the attachment of my opening post. ) Or is their no reason to use those?
