Also time to time I can see news like this!Critical security flaws found in LastPass on Chrome, Firefox (updated)
It's a popular software so critical bugs are found and they get fixed. If i wanted to show you the amount of critical bugs found and fixed for windows in the past year i would probably be stuck posting topic for the whole day. Every popular software has bypasses and the less used software like the one you mentioned probably have more serious issues but none cares enough to invest time in them to find them

Important for the first thing. Turn on UAC to Always Notify.

Change search engine to DuckDuckGo or Startpage.

Add ZAM Free.

Add extensions:
- Scriptsafe
- Malwarebytes Browser Extension
- Cookie AutoDelete
- Netcraft

The rest of the config looks strong, thanks for sharing!

Thank you for all of these suggestions.
- ' Turn on UAC to Always Notify ' - I try this before and it turns to a headache so I don't do that :D.
- ' Scriptsafe ' It breaks many websites and I don't want to give time for manual stuff and whitelisting ... :)
- ' Malwarebytes Browser Extension ' I don't know how reliable it is. just waiting for some more tests.
- ' Cookie AutoDelete ' I don't want to sign in to many websites or customize many settings again and again if this extension delete all the cookies ( u may say it's dangerous to stay signed in but I'm fine, thank you :D )
- ' Netcraft ' I'm phishingproof.:oops:

Thanks for your time :emoji_ok_hand:
