I'm on Firefox with Adblock Plus, no other add-on. But back in the day when I was still on Windows, I used to have a customised HOSTS file (for those who don't know, more info here). And of course... the best antivirus, anti malware and anti-anything, is knowledge. People like the OP can have antivirus, firewall, 5 security add-ons on their browser, and they could still get infected; while others with much less than that, don't get anything. People don't need to be tech savvy... they just need to know what they need to stay safe.

When Windows stopped supporting XP updates every month i just relied on Kaspersky and updating the Firefox browser all the time along with the addons. I never got hit with any problems at all even though the operating system was vunerable.

You need NoScript for Imagebam as sometimes when you right click to view a picture that was uploaded ages ago and save, a nasty website link to a virus will activate immediately in the address bar.

When there was a real threat - reported mostly by a lot of avast users they removed and rebuilt all the plugins - subtle hint there for browser users - check your own plugins So they do react when theres an issue on VEF Really its up to all of us to make our own PCs or what ever platform we're using as bullet proof as possible Plenty of IT folks write that if you rely on just security suites your missing the point That point is if they go off it means you have a vulnerability on your machine thats open to exploitation.

Can't seem to find a thread on here that deals with anti-virus software. I recently uninstalled kaspersky & am looking for an alternative on windows 7. Using window defender & malwarebytes in the meantime. Any recommendations? Was thinking Avast, but not sure.
