[QUOTE="Practical Response, post: 1082049, member: 109138"] It's a agree to disagree at this point. Balanced good habits with security has been my position here. Layered security not properly configured leads to vulnerability aka expanding the attack surface. While you as a truly advanced person could implement such security for your family and maintain it, most here could not. Trying to convince users here to use Windows as it was designed, simply setting a admin account with several "standard user accounts for family" seems to be too daunting for most. So recommending contingencies should something happen coupled with habits to minimize with no matter what security they are running seems the best viable solution. Encouraging users not to over lap security, expand their attack surface with more bugs, vulnerabilities, misconfurarions, but bolster habits of taking time to verify things, and always keep things backed up seems to me the better way.
