[carioca]

 

Who knows the best security combination with avast free edition? All freewares? I would suggest as a starting point:
comodo firewall personal, comodo boclean, spyware terminator, superantispyware free, system safety monitor, sandboxie, returnil, winpatrol free, a-squared free, and so on. Could you share your experience? Best Regards.

Tried these and give up... don't like them.

process monitor, spyware blaster

I'm using them.

, Busyport 2006, ExeHound 2005 , File Hunter 2006, SoftPerfect Personal Firewall, Filelabs Firewall, shadowsurf, etc.

Never tried them.

I use only WinPatrol as HIPS tool. I can't stand that much popups on the screen.

Hi, tech,

The webroot Company now is offering its firewall desktop totally free at http://www.webroot.com/consumer/products/desktopfirewall/?id=H2-HO_Links-DF&WRSID=49eafde8

PS: Now I realized I put this thread at the wrong place(avastserver edition) instead of avastfreeedition.
By the way,Could you move it?

 

[Lisandro]

Could you move it?

I can't. Only moderators could do that. It'll be good anyway.
About the firewall, webroot is not a freeware trutable company. Don't misunderstand me. It's a good company. Just not a good freeware company. At any time they could change the status from freeware to shareware, or limit the functionability and features of the free version. Just my opinion.

[Rafel]

I think Webroot firewall is now free because they have problems for sell it. If a lot of people download and use this FW, then Webroot will change the status of his FW. MARKETING!!

[Lisandro]

then Webroot will change the status of his FW.

This is a ridiculous policy... I won't lose time with it...

If anywhere, it should be on the General forum if you consider it is not a problem directly relating to avast 4 Home/Pro

Hi carioca,
Hopefully they'll accomplish that task faster than ZoneAlarm.

I'm afraid I'm not following... I have ZA free installed on my laptop (Vista).

I have ZA free installed on my laptop (Vista).

I've missed this... I thought ZA was not compatible with Vista (yet).
Is it working well, Sasha?
