Danger Sampei Nihira Security Config WinXP (POS Ready2009) 2020

[ForgottenSeer 823865]

He always has one answer: I use this setup for many years and never been infected.
Yes, it is always hard to beat the facts.

Unless he doesn't know he was infected LOL
Pinpointing an infection with naked eye isn't a feat average people can do.
Anyway this argument is dumb, he may never been infected because he never crossed a serious malware, not because his setup is secure.

That is the point. Furthermore, he believes that this follows from the way he uses the computer.

I have a brother who uses Windows XP + Eset. I told him many times how dangerous it can be

Dangerous??? Come on, people. If you catch a virus you disinfect it with basic or advanced tools. A Ransomware? If you have backups, it's not a problem.
As for other vulnerabilities, they're not a problem unless you work for a government or are an activist or something. Who would take the time to exploit vulnerabilities in a home user's computer?
Just being a little careful where you click, especially in emails, and little else is ok regardless of the operating system you use.
Well that's all I wanted to add to this topic.

Best regards.

@Andy Ful

Why didn't you publish your Security Configuration?

Because this would not help anyone. I do not have something like a stable configuration. I use Shadowdefender to test many security applications. For example, last week I used Avast with H_C (tested the new H_C Avast profile). Yesterday I used WD + MBAE to test the exploit tool. Today I use WD + H_C. I do not know what will be tomorrow, maybe it will be WD + several configs of Application Guard (if I will like to test it).
Most often I use WD (High Protection Level, Windows 10) + native Edge + several profiles of H_C (testing the new version).

if you are aware of it, then the time you discover the breach, it may be already too late and the attacker got all the credentials he needs from you.

Thank@Andy

Such as Apts or info stealers .the danger not that all trojons or malware's has districtuive signs as in the past (Auto run )but the silent distructive effect such as credential stealing trojans

Or became q zombie for botnet network used for another attack or spreading other malware

What is the point of using old OS with tons of security programs to patch all vulnerabilities when Windows 10 protect computer from vulnerabilities by default?

The same as using one strong leg instead of two default.

For such time of malware you should be aware f your windows or your system for example deg deep in os low. Level layers I know the benefits of computer organisation and processor details which I hate back then right now

 

[DDE_Server]

I begin to read about os layers from excellent book called Concepts of operating systems which define all these terms low and high level starting from how instruction excited in the processor and what is device controller and shard memory to system files ,process and threads creation this I think will give me a good start to know how should I guess if you there a sign of infection or not by knowing if there any upnormal performance issues

It's also likely that the aliens will land the spaceship at their home.

Thank you.

The first is much more probable, except if you believe in thousands of aliens landing on Earth every day.

I would not use the Windows firewall I would use Sygate Personal Firewall is the best program I have tried in many years.
