[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 775618, member: 51905"] each person has their own formulas for protecting their PCs which suit their usage and their family/friend usage. I setup my PC differently from other PCs for me, I always use default-allow AVs + hardening tools + more default-allow tools, all must be light-weight and effective + they must complement each others to patch "visible" weaknesses I find out about each products I use kaspersky free in some machines (usually friends when I don't usually play with their machines). I use avast in my family machine because they are next to me and avast is safer than kaspersky free due to hardened mode with syshardener in my dictionary for novice users (parants, friends): default-deny = zero usability (but better speed) = complaints = more time to educate people, which I don't have and they tend to forget in 2 minutes I have been using avast (HM) + disabling scripts (now with syshardener) + 2-3 custom filters or extensions (light such as WDBP) + some telemetry workaround => no one has been getting any infection for 8 years and they don't contact me for any reason and I don't have to educate them anything (besides some phishing attacks), just let them use their PCs recklessly, still haven't got infected They don't care about telemetry so I don't mind too usability is almost not affected (slight slowdown due to realtime AV as an exchange), easy-to-use: almost not not affected because they have to decide nothing (unlike default-deny), security 95% as good as default-deny becuase my setup is hybrid between default-allow and deny but without user's decision Occasionally check for malware using combo: NPE, zemana, HMP, never find anything in any PC, except some left-over blocked files by Hardened mode, which are kept but not deleted This is all fact if people are intentionally hacked by hackers or vulnerabilities, regardless of default-deny, it just can't be stopped [/QUOTE]
