Thanks @paulderdash
Do I have to exclude HMPA from both analysis and oversight ?

It is prefered.

I would exclude the whole install folder of the other security programs because it will still monitor any child programs they spawn. That is what i was told by @Fabian Wosar
Emsisoft Anti-Malware & Emsisoft Internet Security 12

I remember when secure a plus was relesed i simpatize whith developer i think is a good software. About Vodooshield is litle diferent than i use. Now do you think is really good measure using it?
In theory Emsi haves realtime protection and behavior shield and only let run good apps, vodoo block every file. I think in a hipotetic malware attack

1.- Bypass my fw
2.-Bypass Heimdal traffic
3.- Bypass Vodoo
4 .- Emsi was the last layer

But Vodoo and emsi Behavior blocker dont do the same? Voodoo in more agresive way?

Honestly the chance of malware bypassing VoodooShield in the first place is incredibly slim as is. Also factor into account that Emsisoft may detect the malware via signatures before it has a chance to execute.

I take a look on "Applications Rules" and I saw that HMPA was yet "all allowed" without doing anything...

Strong combination, i'm using both.

Adding HitmanPro.Alert to any AV is going to be a strong combination. That and a little common sense, plus a good backup plan. is all you need!

I just have oversight in Settings>Exclusions, but I would trust @Umbra (and @SHvFl)

Looks like I'll have to change my settings!

I love really love how you discuss every point here and really open user minds and give us more knowldement. I feel more pacific. Now i am using emsi and SAP (I like more than Vodoo), I hear HMPA are very good software. Now i feel better I want to know what do you think about emsi and comodo firewall? Emsi and Comodo FW or Emsi SAP and Comodo?

Didn't you try EAM + CFW in the past and had all kinds of problems - correct ? Wasn't that you that spent months on the Emsisoft support forum trying to get them to work together ?
