RE: starchilds new laptop windows 8 config

Back to basics again :)

removed AVAST and Zonealarm Free

current realtime protection :

Windows 8 Defender - Windows Firewall - Smartscreen - Uac
 
RE: starchilds new laptop windows 8 config

Did a little cleanup : Removed Wisecare and Iobit Advanced Sytem Care and Chrome.
Replaced With : Auslogics Boostspeed , which is my all time favorite tuning suite and Mozilla Firefox which I prefer above Chrome.
complemented the system with Emet.

like the simple security setup very much the only drag on system I notice is the startup of my browsers is gone down a bit. for the rest I am very content with this :)
 
RE: starchilds new laptop windows 8 config

smal update : disabled defender , installed c.i.s. gonna test this for a while and see how this goes....removed firefox and installed chrome instead.
comodo seems to play nicer with chrome than firefox.
 
RE: starchilds new laptop windows 8 config

removed google chrome and replaced it with comodo dragon ( enforce secure connection and comodo dns enabled . )
for addons : Privdog ( new comodo anti banner plugin ) - w.o.t. and lastpass.
 
RE: starchilds new laptop windows 8 config

PrivDog isn't owned by Comodo, probably some partnership. Anyway, I wasn't too keen on the idea they're providing. Better off with ABP (Lite) or AdBlock, where YOU create the white-listed sites.

And it had to be done. :D

RE: starchilds Bulletproof Vest windows 8 Final ( 12-07-2012 )

Removed my cracked version of Auslogics Boostspeed and replaced with Toolwiz Care , thanks for the giveaways I could ad O & O Disk Defrag Pro and O & O Safe Erase Pro ( removed Privazer ).....
 
RE: starchilds Bulletproof Vest windows 8 Final ( 12-07-2012 )

did you some cleaning in my config , to weed out the surplus software : removed both O&O defrag and safe erease pro : these tools are covered in both ccleaner and toolwiz care.

hello overkill!

I have used sandboxie in the past for a few days and I did not like the fact the way it impacts my browsing speed , so I will probably no add it anymore , but thanks for your tip anyway ;)
 
RE: starchilds Bulletproof Vest windows 8 Final ( 12-07-2012 )

Sandboxie does slow browsing down but very little atleast on my machine.
