Unfortunately i can't confirm this as i don't use Firefox. I don't particularly like the company that develops part of it (i am biased), which is not Mozilla. I know it's stupid thinking, but...
I understand you, at this point I use Edge waiting for good news.
Edge should be more secure thanks to the built-in sandbox if I am not wrong.

Removed: Firefox
Added: Chrome

Reason: Adguard was causing security certificate problems opening Google.com and other sites, on Firefox, I was able to resolve unflagging the relative Adguard box, but seeing Chrome works perfectly I preferred it.

To be honest I think SecureAPlus has a bit better protection IMO. Other than the initial scan of the system, it's a pretty light software. :)
I agree, maybe I will reinstall SAP in the next days because I have two years license.
I do not want to use overkill in my config and in the meantime I'm testing Hemidal Pro.

Added: Glasswire free (testing)
Removed: Hemidal Pro

Reason: I'm testing Glasswire and it seems Hemidal Pro is causing conflict with Glasswire probably driver or DNS side.
The fact is that after every system reboot , Glasswire create a dump file on the desktop.
By uninstalling Hemidal, problem solved.

Removed: Emsisoft AM (license expired)
Added: SecureAPlus 4.60 Premium (+WD)

Edit: Windows Defender PUA protection enabled via registry hack
Did you install the SAP via a giveaway (of version 4.5.2) and then upgraded to 4.6.0?
If so, I need to know if installing directly/upgrading to 4.6.0 will keep the license valid or not.
