RE: Stonecold Security Setup

Well that configuration is fine.

Since ESET Smart Security does have everything, you may test their HIPS too.

RE: Stonecold Security Setup

If you have Malwarebytes' Anti Malware PRO why do you have it in on demand and not real time?

RE: Stonecold Security Setup

The OP is using ESET and Sandboxie from the looks of things, and I wouldn't say MBAM (paid) is needed in realtime.

RE: Stonecold Security Setup

I don't use malwarebytes in real time as it use a bit of Ram which have little impact on system.With so many precautions already on system I think I did not really need mbam real time.
Mclovin: I already have image backup which I mentioned above.

RE: Stonecold Security Setup new

Stonecold Avira recently had a nasty update error. Now the new update switches off Avira ProActiv(Behavior guard). Avira is having a lot of trouble so I recommend moving away from it.

Stonecold use something like Linkscanner from AVG or Traffic light. For sandbox use bufferzone.

I don't use link scanner as I already have browsing protection active from eset and i use sandboxie pro for sandbox.
I dont have good experience with bufferzone before.

Kaspersky is well known to be a resource hog.

MBAM pro should be put in Real-Time section, unless you use it only on-demand.
