I think that's pretty much it. Please let me know what you think and suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for sharing your config
May I ask question? Why Waterfox do you prefer ?

Back up is not only good for personal items, but your operating system as well, hardware failure/infection can render you without, if you have no back up of your system.

@russ0408, your configuration was an enjoyment to read. Thanks for sharing it!
I've recently added the ublock extension for Chrome too! I understand your resolve and mindset that a back up would not be necessary, although there 'is' an ever present chance of falling prey to an infection such as cryptolocker.

*As far as having a back up plan, @illumination bequeathed a similarly needed wisdom upon my own not very thin skull when I first posted 'my' config! ..and I have a flash drive plugged into it right now to do just that!

For an added layer of containment protection for your system, place your browsers into a virtual sandbox (except when updating). It's also free! www.sandboxie.com

Lastly, if you are considering testing Antivirus programs or, perhaps, running additional operating systems on Windows such as linux, the safe download site, Softpedia, descriptively reviews it in a very down to earth way. http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/OS-Enhancements/VirtualBox.shtml

I have tried firefox 31, and palemoon they all seem to freeze on me when using facebook for any length of time. Waterfox doesn't.

Ok. I am advertising a browser all MT friends know this
What about Cyberfox web browsers ?Maybe you can give it a try. I think better than, private than and faster than all the other firefox based browsers. Noone will hurt with a try
