KIS 2012 is a powerful suite, which can protect your PC with no real problems.You should remove Emsisoft Anti-Malware from your real-time protection because over doing it is as bad as not securing your PC.
As a optional step , you can increase KIS 2012 prevention by using it in Interactive mode ,the main downside is that you'll may need to answer to some pop-ups, however this should increase your level of protection.

On this forums you' can also find a guide on "How To Setup Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 for Maximum Protection",even if it's for the 2011 version ,you can check it out and see if you can use some settings for the 2012 version.

As a tip I would suggest to use the Kaspersky sandbox when browsing the internet, if you don't like it you can try Sandboxie.

Additional On-demand scanners:
Emsisoft Emergency Kit (Free) - link
With the Emsisoft Emergency Kit Scanner you have got the powerful Emsisoft Scanner including graphical user interface. Search the infected PC for Viruses, Trojans, Spyware, Adware, Worms, Dialers, Keyloggers and other malign programs.
Run the Emsisoft Emergency Kit Scanner with a double click on a2emergencykit.exe. Found Malware can be moved to quarantine or finally deleted.

Additional browser protection:

LastPass (Free/) - link
LastPass is an online password manager and form filler that makes web browsing easier and more secure.

Extra protection:

EMET 2 (Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit) (Free) - link
EMET provides users with the ability to deploy security features built into Windows to arbitrary applications. This helps prevent vulnerabilities in those applications from successfully being exploited. DEP, SEHOP and ASLR are such security features, if you want to learn more about what they do, you can watch this video from Microsoft TechCenter. To configure EMET you should follow this guide by rationallyPARANOID.


VTUploader (Free) - link

To upload a file to VirusTotal, you can visit the main analysis site, click the Browse button to select a file from your hard drive, and then click the Send file button. You can make this process even easier with the free VirusTotal Uploader utility. After installing it, you can simply right-click any file under 20MB and choose "VirusTotal" from the Send To Windows menu. The scan results will display in your browser as usual.


As for you PC specs it would be a good idea to start a topic in the Hardware Showcase Forum

I think at this is not required. I seen the tests of KIS Sandbox and i think its good enough.

Are you always using Kaspersky Sandbox when browsing the net or only occasionally?

 

[ThisIsMe]

I use only if i do not sure at the site are secure.

Hi ThisIsMe, you should use it the whole time. There is no way that you can
pick and tell which sites are safe and which are not. Personally, I don't trust
any site, I consider every site potentially dangerous even the Vatican's or
Mother Theresa s site can be hacked and infected.
I believe you can not save files when using Safe Run so if that's the reason you
are not using it always, then maybe you can disable Safe Run and use SBIE.
Sandboxie gives you the convenience to save files very easily and Sandboxies
sandbox has been around for 7 years, not 2 like Kaspersky. Huge difference,
can not be compared but if you dont like to try SBIE then use what you have
now so it helps you prevent getting infected.

I took a ride by the Kaspersky forum before replying to you. I did it to check out
the infected/Virus subforum and see whats going on in there and that subforum
is as big as they are on other Antiviruses forums. That tells me that people
using Kaspersky are getting infected and probably, most are doing like you, not
using the sandbox.
Now, if you take a ride by the Sandboxie forum, you will not see a subforum for
people that gets infected. That tells me that people that use Sandboxie, don't
get infected.

Use the sandbox, one or the other, that's my friendly advice.

OK, thank You. I will use Kaspersky Sandbox every time.
But i listen something about sandboxie/KIS Sandbox provably cannot work on x64 system. It is true?

 

[jamescv7]

Actually it was due to the patch guard of 64bit system unlike 32bit it can work well.

Sandboxie works just fine on 64 Bits, I would say that Kaspersky
should be OK also.

As Bo said, it work very fine, im using the latest beta version of sandboxie (3.57) with the experimental x64 option ticked, and i dont have any problem.

 

[ThisIsMe]
