trying to combine antiviruses and firewalls
Contro:
I have Avast free, but sometimes don't detect the virus like the last time.
I usually apply a weekly scan with malwarebytes antimalware.
And Spybot s&d and superantispyware.
Until the moment works.

Just get a firewall, eg. the free version of Windows 8 Firewall Control.

I will take a look. But really i would like antivirus in coexistance only. I haven't a problem with windows firewall for years as long i remember.
:P
Contro:
Installed the portable version.
Seems strange to me, but i engaged to the windows 8 firewall forum .
I am learning

Mixing realtime security apps is more trouble than it's worth - unless you're doing it for a school project. Or to satisfy your own curiosity.
Otherwise, install a decent all-in-one suite and be done with it. 8)

Amen to that!
Sudden security software conflicts can cause catastrophic failures just as unpleasant as the malware you're trying to avoid.
