interesting combo thanks for sharing. i was thinking about it ?
KFA does not contain HIPS :unsure: :unsure: ?? as if it contain it doesn't have conflict ?? or you make an exclusion in both programs.
as i have emsisoft but i want to use the firewall to complement it and remove tinywall ? my i try free one and disable system protection but i think about firewall one as it has key logging protection which i see the most powerful feature ?

SpyShelter Firewall likes to be in conflict with Kasperski.
my task was to set the system firewall + Kaspersky Free better.
I used to use this configuration myself and there was no conflict on the part of the system firewall.
but how do you like to test your system and expose yourself to conflict.
I am a bit surprised by this setting.

For now I haven't found any conflict in my malware tests with this combo KSCloudFree + SSFW, since as already said, the Free version of Kaspersky does not have Application Control + FireWall...

There is no Program Control in KFA, there is only Monitoring of program activity, and this is not the same thing. The main thing to add to the program exclusions is both there and there. Kaspersky does not control the activities of SpyShelter, and SpyShelter does not control the activities of Kaspersky. And together they work fine then. For a year of using not a single conflict or errors in the work of either one or the other program (if you believe the logs). Well, working under a standard user account with changes made by Syshardener doesn’t practically leave any possibility to launch some unknown program. I tried to run a test utility from SpyShelter and could not, because I had to go through UAC first, then Kaspersky immediately dragged it into quarantine, and after I got the utility out of quarantine and running it, a bunch of warnings came out from SpyShelter.
