Sorry den, I thought that was obvious to anyone. Security is something as I take as a matter of course and looking back I can honestly say I have never had any malware, virus or rootkit on any of my PC's/laptops since perhaps 2004 (that's when I took the time to learn and take note) and had never used a PC before 2001.

I swear by ESET Smart Security. with the firewall set as interactive. It's a bit of a pain in the beginning as as every attempted connection in or out is flagged until you allow it. Even your browser of choice has to be given permission but you can set it to always allow, same with windows updates and any software you have with auto-updates etc, but once you tell the firewall to always allow it will never ask you again.

Back that up with Malwarebytes and Spybot Search and Destroy and you have a pretty good security system. Nothing is ever 100% though and you should always be aware of the links you're clicking on.
