Hello guys! :D
Basically i don't like lots of running software for monitoring my system because i'm a performance maniac but with this light configuration i feel almost safe.
Eset NOD32 Antivirus is really a hand from gods because it detect a lot of threat (also pdf or doc containing shellcode) and it's really light for the operating system.
Also it has a lot of custom configuration to filter the inband/outband traffic of my applications and i have the possibility to add a list of Ip address to filter (most of the time i add the compromised domains of the new botnet spreading into the wild).

In addition i have a Oracle virtual box running a windows 7 operating system that i use to open suspicious doc/pdf/exe files.
It is mitigated for being stealth to the vm-aware technicque used by the malware, that's because i use it as a malware analysis machine.

The only thing i would improve is to install a Rollback/snapshot softwares (working like virtual box) on my main system and save a snapshot every week, but i read that it can create conflict with the default windows backup system.
Do you know any good software that can't crash my system?

All the hints and tips would be appreciated. :D

A good compromise between security and performance. However, might I recommend you maybe parting with SpyBot S&D, because many would argue it hasn't aged well. Consider replacing it with another on-demand such as Zemana, Crystal Security, Emsisoft EK, etc. Other than that, good config. :)

maybe just keep Windows Defender combined by an Anti-Executable like :

- NVT ExeRAdarPro , my review here : User Review - NoVirusThanks ExeRadar Pro v2.7
- Appguard , review here : User Review - AppGuard , Video test here: Video Review - Those Nasty RATS Part 4

- Rollback RX , my review here: User Review - [Review] Rollback RX Pro v10
i made some guidelines for it since it is an awesome but very sensitive software : Rollback RX users guidelines

Replace Spybot S&D with something more reliable on demand scanner even though it uses BD engine however the overall features are already ineffective.

Other than that, already good configuration since ESET AV definitely kicks in for your configuration.
