Well instead of Firefox, have you tried Waterfox?

Im happy with Chrome atm,will try it in few days.

Should i add WSA maybe on this config for better security(it's light anyway) ?

Although EMET isn't officially supported on Windows 8, how stable is it?

For IE 10

Smartscreen filter ON.

Use Tracking Protection to add a subscription based for blocking trackers.
Link

As possible if no problems then activate Active X protection from safety menu. (If you didn't encounter problems on watching videos)

Add like Simple Adblock and WOT (Web of Trust).

Don't forget to extract common_sense.zip and merge it with the Registry. (Nerd joke). :lol:

It's similar to my config, except I have less extensions and different OS. :D

Already done.
Today if you know what are you doing on net you need just normal av and firewall for that MSE i Win Firewall are very good.
