The Wikipedia 'HIPS' link was a great read,and definitely taught me a few things.also your right about the future lying in the hardening of the operating system and in kernel based HIPS technology.you cant really afford to let yourself be infected by spyware+viruses in the first place,and then hope programs like AA or spybot or kaspersky will get rid of em,you need to be more active and have excellent programs to stop it in the first place,like these HIPS products.
also 1984 i think processguard is free.id love to know wat HIPS products and other security stuff u use tony.and if u have any more links concerning HIPS and other stuff,id love to read em.if more people knew bout HISPS(i knew barely nothing+i thought my pc security knowledge was decent) then there wud be a serious lack of spyware+other problems on ppls pcs

just use firefox or opera,its only a matter of time before you realise its the smart decision to do
-
i havent tried the backup program,may do later.just when i tried getting the 90day trial of windowsonecare for some reason it wudnt work.said some error in installation or something.was using IE also
gave up on WOC a good while ago
-
yeah some sites may not function properly while ur running noscript,but you can fix that by temp accepting/fully accepting the site.tis a very handy tool though
-
never heard of it until this post,but seems legit from googling it.also gets 4/5 stars on downloads.com so shud be safe
-

lmao @
"It took 6-minutes to start Firefox with the 200 extensions installed but it worked!"
-
seems to be worth running rogueremover after u installed/tried out some new program.had to uninstall eusing reg cleaner there since RR found like 15problems with it.
fileassassin looks kool.i checked out the other dls on the site,not bad
-
sounds good,shame i cant get windowsonecare working for some reason
-
the sims is a computer game,somebody in your family might want to keep it so might wanna be careful uninstalling it,otherwise u can get rid of it if u want to
pictionary is some word-guessing board game,like above somebody may want it,if not get rid of it if u wish
quicktime is a program for playing videos,animation,music and other stuff.its pretty helpful so you should keep it.im always using it to watch trailers

hehe i just posted bout rogueremover a few days ago in some "best freeware" topic i think.it seems to be a cute handy little program,i know it got rid of 4 things that i had no idea were there
also ran it on my mates pc yesterday,got rid of that winantivirus(my mate knows nothing bout pc security) and like 9 other things
definitely worth a running,you wud be surprised what it finds
-
yeah noscript seems to be pretty good.gonna re-dl it(i got it ages ago and it kept annoying me when some pages wudnt load up properly).
shud check out TrackMeNot,stops data profiling on search engines,and KeyScrambler which ofc protects u against keyloggers
edit : whats better,adblock plus or noscript?
edit : was just messing around with both of them,noscript seems to be really good,definitely keeping it!!shud been using it earlier

well i looked @ processguard,system safety monitor,and one called defensewall i think which seemed to get good reviews.decided to settle on processguard.looks nice and seems quite decent.
i checked sunbelts counterspy myself ages ago,i heard its supposed to be one of the best anti-spyware programs,but its just so ugly,those bright yellow/orange colours all over the program!anyway gonna check out some of the programs you listed
im just wondering why you use nod32+boclean antitrojan.wud nod32 not find any trojans by itself?i use kaspersky myself,love everything about it,never have any virus problems with it
