Re: Do you still use Windows? I'd say dont overload with soooo soooo much security software.
Any IT securtiy gurus will tell u that even they do not run any AV software with minimum security software and dont get even hacked....
Just go with the basics...
Patch, AV, Firewall router, enable Windows FW, and avoid social engineering attacks and ur all set.
Users tend to bloat their machines up with security software.
Just patch, hardware FW with Windows FW enabled and dont click on any suspicious links or attachments. Thats all.
Windows is aint that bad, but it takes more effort to secure it and lock it down.

Good point. Windows OS could be secure. The insecure link is the user. Learn "good manners" how to run it and you don't need any anti-malware protection tools

Agreed 100%.
I just run as a limited user, UAC on and MS Security Essentials.
