i have just installed it and for what I can see it is somewhat similar to the tuning componant in qihoo 360 total security. It compliments wisecare365 well ;) privazer I use once every two or three months.

Your configuration is very good, but I just don't trust any Baidu products at all.

AVG Is slightly better in my opinion even though I don't use it anymore - seeing as you have had problems with it It is the right thing to move on.

after the latest AVG debacle it whas time for me to move on with a new config. comments apreciated ;)
Baidu AV should not be primary line of defense(a friendly suggestion,no harsh feelings),it should be secondary AV if you like it(I was Qihoo fanboy ;) ) CIS is is a good option......
BTW,I want to check out Spark browser :D How is it compared to Yandex and Chrome

Hands down to your configuration :D

Its not the problem if you remove AVG, cause your knowledge binds to make your configuration secure as possible so any security product will meet without problem.

@sonylxn : AVG still needs tons of improvements especially in maturing their product , making it more stable! furthermore , they still hang too much on signature detection and their zeroday module ( Identity protection ) is very , very weak. it does not provide a user a good protection , slow in removing / detecting a very small amount of zeroday samples. Also AVG'S firewall is weak , it only provides outbound protection and got a poor score with comodo leak test and other firewall tests I did. it still is a drag on the system and unstable. trying to remove the products AVG free , or AVG Internet Security and AVG pctuneup is a nightmare , even if you use the AVG removal tools and Revo Uninstaller Pro , it still leaves tons of trash behind in registry and folders! I have reported this to our community managers ( I am an AVG Hall Of Famer / Guru ) but still no one cares / listens.
